LoOk WhaT CaMe In tHe MaiL YeSteRday..


Look what came in the mail for me yesterday...I knew exactly who sent it and I couldn't wait to open it...it was a heavy box too..so I knew it was loaded up with some wonderful goodies...;)

I pulled out the package and the card on top said to read it when I was done opening my goodies..so I did just that...:) love that plastic bag she had it packed in by the way..

this is what came in the mail..this was my birthday present from May..( I sent hers off late as well) so this didn't bother me at all..it felt more like christmas then my birthday..but it was so much fun getting all of these goodies..I can certainly use the little beads for the eyes and the basket buttons are too cute as well..gotta figure out what they will go on.so any hints there Cindy lou...I am so loving those little pillows..they just make me smile..and I can't wait to sit outside and read my book at the picnic table when the weather gets a bit better..we have been getting our much needed rain here..

Okay here is the rest of the goodies...I love that little towel..I must have some of those towels..I can't find good homespun ones here..so Cindy let me know where you got em..I think I want you to pick me up some..and that little bag..I love it..it is going to hold my items that I have made to take to my viking department and showing them..so it is going to be a great traveling bag.it is holding my book right now..and on the left is scrapbooking stickers and metal tags etc..will probably use those to embellish tags for my dollies or pillows..okay below is my items all put in their places..

the little calico pillow..:) love it..duh it has a cat on it..:)

do you see the little cat pillow?

another cat pillow..with my wedding boquet from long ago..almost 24 years ago..

another cat pillow above my nightstand with the other cat memrobilia...looks right at home doesn't it..:)

Oh my scarf!!! I can't tell you how this has made me smile...I look so forward to wearing this out on my fall/winter walks all snug and looking so cute I might add..I love the shade of red..its almost got some pink in it and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

there is my little bag ready at the front door..gotta pack it up for today..coupons and purses to go to Joanns and then to the doctors for my feet..amazingly my feet have been feeling better..going to see what the orthodics are going to run me...might have to wait on those...will see..so going to michaels today and to joanns..gotta get some thread, purse handles, more vinyl for the purses and magnetic closures..I am having so much fun with the purses and such..

and last but not least my little homespun towel with a candle embroidered on it...I too have this design..and love how it turns out..looks great in my kitchen...Thank you again Cindy for all the wonderful goodies you sent..You truly spoiled me and I love ya for it..have a great thursday everyone..and to all my newcomers to my blog I welcome you..and thanks for joining up as a follower..I hope I don't disapoint you...:)

  1. What a terrific birthday present! Great pictures of it all! Lucky you!

    I wanted to tell you that the 2nd lavender recipe you asked about is a body powder. How nice to use after an evening bath for a nice restful sleep perhaps.

    Take care and Happy Belated Birthday!
