Description
“We often feel like winter is a time when the magic falls away. Rosie shows us that it's very much still there, we just need to know how to look for it.” – Ramona Jones
Rosie Steer's Celtic ancestors celebrated micro-seasons all-year round. Honouring these mini milestones has enabled her to reclaim wintertime, transforming it from something to fear into something to savour.
Gloaming is a collection of cosy crafts, soul-nourishing recipes and slow living activities inspired by stories and traditions from Scottish folklore, divided into four ancient seasons:
· Hairst (harvest)
· Samhain (Hallowe'en)
· Howe o'the Year (winter solstice)
· Waretym (earliest spring).
Revel in Rosie's step-by-step projects such as Clay Pressed Botanical Imprints and an Upcycled Hot Water Bottle Cover; relish her easy-to-make bakes such as Spiced Pumpkin Loaf Cake and Clementine and Almond Buns; and soak up folk stories of Scottish wintertime.
Rosie shows us that we can all find glimmers, even amongst the hardest times and the darkest winters.
· Rosie Steer is the Edinburgh-based creator behind @everythinglooksrosie
· She found solace in the Celtic Wheel of the Year following poor mental health.
· Gloaming is perfect for fans of Katherine May, The Almanac series and The Little Book of Hygge.

Utterly gorgeous. As cosy as the softest winter blanket. The perfect companion for long, dark winter nights.
Beth Kempton, bestselling author and host of 'The Calm Christmas Podcast'

Gloaming is a must-have for the seasonally affected among us, charting a gentle way through the darker months and packed full of sweet crafts, botanical and seasonal recipes and beautiful Scottish words – 'scarrow' (faint light), and my personal favourite, 'sneesl' (to begin to rain or snow)!
Ally and Jess Lister of AESME Studio and School of Flowers
