I had the loveliest of surprises this morning when the doorbell rang and the postman handed me a large box. I had no idea what it was until I looked at the return address and realised it had been sent by the lovely Gill over at Lucy Locket. I knew I'd won some red and white stripey string the other week when Gill was offering some in a giveaway but had been expecting that to arrive in an envelope. I'm afraid I was waaaaaaaay too impatient to fetch my camera before I started opening the box but just have a look at the wonderful goodies I received.
The sweetest little cat and dog Christmas tree ornaments. Their timing was impeccable as I'm intending to put up the Christmas decorations this weekend (providing I can persuade P to get up into the loft and fetch the boxes down!)
A large drum of Cinnamon Sticks - ideal for festive cooking, and also used a great deal by Nigella so I can see these soon getting used.
A lovely generous amount of the aforementioned red and white string - just the ticket for tying festive parcels.
But best of all was a selection of gorgeous cards / gift tags which the very talented Gill makes herself.
Featuring vintage images, ric-rac and buttons - all my favourite things.
I particularly love these two - they are so feminine and pretty.
Gill, these cards are superb - you really should start selling them - and THANK YOU SO MUCH for all these lovely things, you've made my day.
Oh shucks,thanks for the mention Elizabeth! Glad you liked everything.
