It's been a funny week, lots of busyness getting ready for the arrival of Floyd next weekend, and lots of germs being brought home from school...R has a rotten cold and M hasn't been feeling great either, though I think he's mainly just tired from getting back into the school routine.
One of the most lovely things that happened to me this week was the arrival of a parcel for me...I won another giveaway, over at The Custards...
Jenny had made 3 beautiful purses, and I had put my name 'in the hat' for this one...and I won, yippee!! Isn't it gorgeous?!
And being the lovely person that she is, she had put a few extra goodies inside....
It took superhuman effort to take photos before unwrapping the parcel...
to reveal such fabulous vintage goodness inside....
2 lovely hankies, a lovely soft linen place mat, a gorgeous pillowcase, and a vintage children's book! That Jenny knows how to do a giveaway, it felt like Christmas!
So huge thanks to her for cheering up my week no end, if you're not familiar with her blog (but surely you must be?!) do pop over and have a look, but please don't 'pin' any of her images onto Pinterest if you're a 'pinner', she very politely requests that her images stay just on her blog where she chose to put them.
I hope you have a lovely weekend, wherever you are and whatever you're doing!
