Today I got a LOVERLY parcel in the post....don't you LOVE 'real' mail?!! lol
Found some very cool vintagey bits and pieces in Joans etsy store here... they came BEAUTIFULLY wrapped in hot pink waxy type tissue (love it!) and accompanied with a beautiful card, all tied up with black organza ribbon. Don't you love it when peole go above and beyond in their presentation? You wouldn't get this kind of wrapping and care with just any old purchase online...thanks Joan..it made my day! Now just awaiting the paper flowers!! Anyway..check these out...
My lovely 'gift'..hehe..wasn't a gift at all but sure felt like one when I opened the bag...
Very cool vintage checkers...x2 - one for me, one to give away :)
Awesome oldstyle keyplates - lovely chippy shabby chic painterly things...thanks to Donna over at funkyjunkinteriors..I saw them on her blog on a side button and that's what made me 'click' across to the store...dunno what I'll do with them but sure I'll come up with something sometime! too cool to pass up!! haha..
And these absolutely awesome vintage car numberplates turned magnetic boards..with some funky wee button magnets...
These cool old photos were also in my parcel..so they found a home right away on the licence plate magnetic thingy whatsit!!
And finally the lovely card Joan popped in thanking me for my order. No..THANKYOU Joan!!
so here was the entire contents of my lovely parcel...
I hope you've all had a day where something made it just go to the next level..it was pouring with rain yesterday..rather odd in the middle of our summer...wet, not too miserable (my husband had JUST returned from 10 weeks away so nothing was gonna make me too miserable!!)...but a wet run to the letterbox was very rewarding..!! yay!!

ReplyDeleteIf quitting is extremely difficult for you, speak with your doctor. There are many over the counter and prescription medications available that can help you on your journey toward no longer smoking. Your doctor can help to determine which of these medications is best for you, and provide monitoring as you begin to use it.satta king
