When I opened up the bubble wrap this is what was inside.
This bag is so cute. Look at the hand embroidery design. Sweet!
This was all in the bag. More goodies to unwrap. I was just as excited as I am at Christmas.
Yummy chocolates made in New Zealand. And a bottle of room and linen spray from Avon. And the best thing in the bag was this table mat. More hand embroidery!
Look at the details!!!
Here is what made the package so long. This wonderful little wall hanging. When I saw this I was just overwhlemed. More hand embroidery. If you do hand embroidery you know how much time is involved. My very generous partner, Deb, at The Angel and Pukeko, made all this for me. This little wall hanging was made special for me because her and I read each others blogs and she knows how much I love watching the birds.
Deb, Thank you just seems like it is not enough to say for the beautiful things that you sent to me. I love them and appreciate all the time you put into each and every piece. I will cherish them always. A big hug and a big THANK YOU!With Passion, Carrie P.
May all your weeds be wildflowers!
