Ebay Win!!

Hi everyone, hope you have all had a great week. I took some rare time out today and had lunch with a friend for her birthday at a little local called 'Jetty', if you live in Brisbane and haven't been put it on your list as it is divine - especially on a beautiful winters day like today!

Anyway, just wanted to firstly thank you all for you wonderful comments re my lovely bedside tables! You are all so kind, and I always love your advice!

Secondly, just wanted to quickly share an ebay win with you all. I'm so excited as today my lovely rubber stamp set arrived! I was lucky enough to win this set a couple of weeks ago and have been waiting, somewhat nervously as I didn't know what to expect, for its arrival. It is a set of over 100 original stamps from the 1960's - it was a set given to 3 sisters by their father as a gift!!! Let me tell you it didn't disappoint - the stamps are of animals, flowers, plants, christmas, children, cars, buildings, maps, people .... and the list goes on!! They are all delightfully representative of the 60's and I can't wait to include them in my range.


Sorry about the image but I was in such a rush to show you all! They are in the original box and each set of stamps are in their original pressed metal containers ..... divine I know!!!!

Anyway, I will now stop basking in my own delight and let you know that the winner of my giveaway - the lovely Kym from Kyandra Rose has chosen a set of tags and an artwork, so hopefully she will share this with you all when she receives them!

Hope everyone has a great weekend - we are off to Noosa for a few days! Hope to get around to visit you all before I leave. Michelle
