I took an exhilerating Country walk with the fat pooch this morning. I looked out of the window from my cosy bed, cup of tea in hand.... i could easily have decided that today wasn't a good walking day (i would have been so wrong) The countryside never looked as pretty as it did this morning....

And on my return from the walk, the Postman was just headed in my back gate to leave a parcel in my 'etsy bin' at the back door.... OOOooohhh, i know you all understand the excitement of that brown envelope / paper parcel....

Cute tissue paper, cute tag, cute stickers... it was an anticipated gift from my friend
meplusmolly...

NO, it wasn't from myself - my friend is also called Kirsty (because it is a wildly talented and creative name you know!) I LOVE the tag Kirsty x

Oh FRIEND! that tweedy fabric is so nice. The colours are divine. You know how to get everything just right! Star Anise (sp?) such a touch x

Stretching down to a LLLlooooooonng 'skinny long stocking' in pink french style fabric with little heel and toe details. Vintage buttons... Kirsty, you just have an 'eye' for what you're doing.
Did i mention it is stuffed with Lavender too? Just dreamy x x x

And i love that it is such a contrast to my Uber-bright items. There is a place for sobriety, for sweetness, for subtlety in my creative life! And, being a Pisces, the contrast suits me.
I wish you lots of success and happiness, especially in your new move x and a really big THANKYOU! I love it.
P.s. I have to remind blog readers that my friend MrsB sent me this prior to Christmas... just because i admired hers so much.

See? I am truly blessed that i have such amazing friends. Thankyou x

A great blog. Enjoy your wonderful present. (Cathy at menopausalmusing.blogspot.com).
You're very lucky - I saw a knitting ball wreath before Christmas and fell in love with it, but sadly the area I live in is a student one and as such one of my peers would probably have nicked it whilst drunk!

I was SO worried mine would get stolen too! But i live in a rural area (hence the country walk!) so i was safe x
arrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I took mine in every night I was so attached to it, I was more protective of it than I of....oh I don't know...my husband?! You are the wonderful friend, like begets like and all that jazz!! xxxxxx Big Kiss X
