Being part of this lovely blogging community of like minded people has given me so much inspiration over the past couple of years. It always puts a smile on my face to receive sweet comments, and I love how you all are so willing to share tips, projects, recipes, and tutorials on your blogs.
Today I received a package in the mail from Suzie of Little Busy Bee. When I had mentioned that my subscription to Marie Claire Idees had lapsed, Suzie emailed me to say that she had bought me a copy – how generous is that! Today it arrived, and what is more Suzie included some extra goodies. Thanks you so very much Suzie – you are incredibly thoughtful.
We received a hanging bird decoration, pouches, chocolate and lollies.
Here is a peak inside the Marie Claire Idees (I enjoyed it so much that I have renewed my subscription)…..
Birdhouses to house the baby wipes and nappies…
Embroidered buttons..
Doily Art …
Pretty bags and pouches ….
Hope you find plenty to inspire you this week!
