Hello lovely friends! I hope you've had a great Christmas...ours has been very nice...lots of relaxing at home in our PJs watching films and munching delicious treats. I seem to have been living mainly on brie, mince pies and port! I have taken a break from the computer and also apparently from my camera - realised earlier I've hardly taken any Christmas photos! I'm a bad blogger...
But we still have festivities to come...my sister is visiting from London so we are gathering at my Mum's today for Christmas round 2, and are then heading east to Sussex for further fun and games at New Year with much-loved-not-seen-often-enough extended family.
As I have been neglecting my camera I don't have much to show you...but I would just like to share one gift with you which has made me very happy...
This is a detail of my new bedroom curtains!! I haven't hung them yet because our bedroom needs some work...decluttering, some more shelves, a lick of paint...but when these are hanging at the window I will be beside myself with joy. They are 60s, Swedish and stunning.
There are many reasons why I am lucky - some deep and profound to do with love and family, some basic and fundamental to do with having a home and enough to eat...but today I feel lucky for the frivolous-but-important-to-me reason that I have beautiful new curtains. I hope that you have also received gifts that make you feel lucky, if you share them on your blog let me know so I can pop over and have a peep!

EEEEEEEEP!! My post this morning was about a giveaway on the lovely Jen's blog, little birdie - well, I won it! Outrageously lucky week, feeling slightly freaked out... think F would have preferred a lottery win, but I love the squirrel tea towel so I'm happy! Won't be entering any more giveaways for a bit, winning any more would just be rude.
My new lucky number (which I've always been fond of)....
I think I should do one soon, it's time to spread the love! What would you prefer - some vintage china, a piece of vintage fabric, or a cushion cover in your choice of fabric from a selection? Let me know and I'll start planning - I'm up to 30 followers today, when I hit 50 I'll be sharing some rainbow vintage loveliness with a lucky winner or two.
Hope you all have a lovely, lucky day!
