Faerie tears 🧚🏼‍♂️💧

♥️

Some moments are filled with grief, loss, fear, and heartache. They are as real and important as the joyful and hopeful ones. Life requires a certain resilience to press on but sometimes surrendering to the sorrow is also required. Natures cycles have demonstrated this balance. Life is death and death is life 🌹🥀🌹🥀

On blizzard warning deep in the NW cascades and lost in cataloging my late summer harvests in my favorite vessels. This color scheme has me dreaming ahead to lovers day and all of its floral possibilities ❤️‍🔥

happy new year 🌱

It’s the most wonderful time of the year ❄️

My trusted workhorse,
My daily multi,
My lifeline in the food desert of rural America,
My color pop when all the flowers have withered away,
My easy to grow, resilient, and abundant number one.
Love you forever, garden greens 🤑

It was an absolute honor to flower Kyle & Kara on their wedding day. The couple was inspired by their many hikes through the glorious Pacific Northwest blooming alpine meadows and the vibe of the day was organic and relaxed. We love this family, and we raise our glasses to them and their bright future. May all of our couples be as cool as you ✨

cottage garden vibes ⛲️

Fireworks 💥

… This year’s garden is different, perhaps born out of frustration, exhaustion, or both. It is part market production, part property beautification, part home sustenance and nourishment. Some things are for canning and pickling and for enjoying after the garden has developed into sticks and frost. Some things will be tea to balance our minds and the flowers will spread their natural beauty beyond our home. This year’s garden is for me. I want to see how the birds decided to plant it, how it replanted itself and intermixed with this year’s energy and choices. In this way I am able to straddle many places at once - in the home, at work, in yesteryear, fully present and starting to visualize the year to come. I have found a place where time is an illusion and I am standing in the continuum. When there is abundance I will share it. But I will not manage it with expectation. I will not strip it from every bloom to satisfy only one piece of it. I will let it be something in between, not quite all that it could be, but always heading in that direction. I will let it be a place instead of a machine. I will let it follow natural cycles instead of market ones. I will share what it has taught me with others, with words.

The first time I witnessed the builder in Alex, he transformed a school bus into a home using only hand tools. When that bus brought us to Packwood, he turned an old forest service loading dock into a room that could shelter our wedding guests from the inevitable November rains that fell that day. He was suddenly under houses replacing foundations, adding decks left and right, he built a barn so we could get sheep, and he outfitted multiple local renovations with custom finish carpentry. Then he started building furniture, and I witnessed him channel his focus into what he loved the most about woodworking - attention to detail and precision, interesting joinery, and the perfect wood selection for the use and aesthetic. His latest project is this commissioned oak dining table and bench. While Alex has always played a fundamental role in the floral and fiber arms of our business, we’re evolving. We aren’t the same people who started out in 2020, and we’re making space for that growth. Reach out via our website if you’re interested in commissioning a custom furnishing, and keep an eye out for more wood based products to come 🪵🪚🗜️🪑

We’re Alex and Rebekah, aka Courageous Crow. Our business name was decided by combining the meanings of our surnames and when we’re not occupied designing floral arrangements, wool uses, custom furnishings, or interior and exterior spaces, we are probably exploring some far away landscape. We’re driven by all things aesthetic and functional and are restored by the arts of music and writing. As creatives and intuitives, marketing ourselves is deeply uncomfortable. But life is bizarre and short and nothing matters so here we are. Nice to meet you. Hope to see you around ⛱️

a favorite springtime piece from the early pandemic era, which was also our first year in business. Alex calls that period ‘the end of the beginning’ - what came before was only the beginning and fell away and everything has been different from then forward. Happy full moon friends🖖🏻🌱

I can hear songbirds through the drum of the rain. The inconsistent creaking of the floor heaters interjects a jazzy undercurrent to this space I call home. Though the seeds have been sown and the bulbs are awakening in their pots, there was a layer of frost over everything this morning.
