Gorgeous gifts!

My friend Sarah came over for lunch on Wednesday and I just have to show you what she gave me. 


Of course I didn't need to be given anything at all! But it was a lovely surprise to receive this gorgeous pink pot of spring bulbs and this beautiful broach!


It'd made out of felt and is perfect, the back of it is so neat! I've worn it all of today and I got quite few compliments on it. :-) So thank you very much Sarah xXx


I've got a few other things to show you but the weather has been miserable and cloudy ALL of today, so I haven't been able to take any good photo's.. I will try and take some photo's tomorrow before our friends that are visiting arrive and get a post written up soon.

PS- I'm almost ready to host my giveaway for reaching 100 posts... almost but not quite! Anyway, it's better late than never though!?

  8. You're more than welcome - I just picked up a pot for you when I got myself some spring bulbs and those felt flowers are so therapeutic to make it was nice to have someone special to gift one to!!

    Jessica - I cant find the tutorial I used but if you Google "felt dahlia" then you'll find loads of tutorials.

    Gem - we're not far from you, we'd love to meet for lunch!!

    So pleased you like your brooch, it's nice to have someone who appreciates handmade things.....

    Hugs,
