Slow Season Week 2

from Beyond The Margins with Jen Chambers Hosted by Jen Chambers

This week on The Slow Season, I’m talking about the simple, sacred act of making things by hand—especially during the coziest, slowest time of year. We’ll craft together through five handmade gifts: -dried cinnamon-sugar apple slices -orange garlands -rolled beeswax candles -rosemary sea salt -little sachets filled with scent and care Plus, my favorite ginger shortbread recipe—complete with gluten-free and plant-based variations—and a reflection on how handmade gifts are love stories in their own right. As a lifelong “nervous knitter,” I’ve found that creating something small and tangible can ground us when the world feels too fast. Breathe, listen, and make with me.
