Kicking off trying to give this space more attention with a party!

September 22nd is J.R.R Tolkien’s characters Bilbo and Frodo Baggins birthday in his ever-popular novel The Hobbit and series The Lord of the Rings.
I’ve been wanting to join in festivities and this seemed as good an opportunity as ever!

We’re planning to have an afternoon tea, put on Hobbit-y music, and later watch The Fellowship of the Ring.

A favorite site of mine to visit for inspiration and other fun stuff is https://www.teawithtolkien.com/party

https://mondaymandala.com/lord-of-the-rings-coloring-pages/ has free Lord of the Rings coloring pages

https://thewanderingwriter6.wordpress.com/blog is also hosting an event you won’t want to miss(which will also feature my Hobbit-hole watercolor piece above and several other works)!

Are you going to have a Hobbit day? Are there any other literary dates you commemorate? I’d love to know in the comments!

Fine print: artwork is my own and I was not obligated to mention the other sites.
