Fun Stuff!

I am living such a happy time in my life and feel so blessed.
I am surrounded by beautiful things and people!

When I saw Penny a couple of weeks ago she gave me this lovely pillow filled with lavender!
Visit Lavender Hill Studio to find all the beautiful things she has to offer!

Oh.....it smells amazing and I love the vintage fabric and soft ribbon.



( If I made a list like Oprah, I would say it is one of my favorite things! Maybe I should do that! )

And I received a few things that I won from the One World One Heart event .

This lovely heart was designed by Vanessa...visit Vanessa's blog to see all of her amazing creations!
I think I've worn it every day since it came!


I am modeling! lol


This amazing Silk Broach is from Shibori Girl !


She fashioned it from hand dyed silk and it is truly a work of art!

Don't look at me in this photo...my hubby is in a hurry and I gave him a funny look!
( his look was.....LET'S GO!!! heehee! I won't post that! lol)


It's so nice to have a lovely fragrant pillow and new jewelry to wear
and a silk broach to brighten up a black sweater.

I love pretty things and want to THANK all of my friends
that care enough to make me feel special!

Have a wonderful week blogger friends!

What lovely treasures. Lavender is just soooooo soothing! I enjoyed catching up on my reading--the kitchen is coming together so nicely--your dolls are always so precious--and you have been on a roll making pincushions!
Hugs,

Diane, lots of pretties! And scented ones too. Love the scent of lavender.
Several years ago we visited Sequim, WA's lavender fields - oh my! The scent totally permeated the entire air!
