Susanne had a giveaway a few weeks ago and I won! Today a parcel landed in my mailbox. I was patient and took photos before opening the packages. Everything is so prettily wrapped. I thought about just waiting and enjoying the packages as is, but that thought soon dissolved.
Isn't this button bouquet sweet?
A journal to record lovely thoughts, an ingenious use of an old book spine - as a bookmark, a blue and white teacup, blue hydrangeas, and what could be wrapped in that handkerchief?
This necklace! I love the old key surrounded by charms. Old keys remind me of my grandparents' home on the farm. I don't actually know what kind of key opened the house, but this key seems like something that would fit there.
And all those dainty birds. Each one has a separate wing glued on. I love almost anything made from old book paper, and these fill me with delight.
Susanne has an Etsy shop as well as a blog, where she sells vintage and vintage inspired bits and pieces.
Thank you, Susanne.
How wonderful, they are all so pretty. The necklace is fabulous. Congratulations on your win:)
ReplyDeleteEverything looks beautiful. I like the way the hanky is used as wrapping. I like old keys too, and this one is especially lovely. Congratulations on winning such a pretty giveaway. xx
ReplyDeleteoh how lovely! Beautifully wrapped. Sure loved those button sprigs.
ReplyDeleteAnd gifts inside... what a treat for the eyes.
Susanne definitely knows how to present gifts...such sweet attention to detail. I, too, love your necklace. It's beautifully vintage...well, I think everything is very nice and clever, too. Lots of things that I've not seen before like the bookspine bookmark and the button bouquet. You're going to enjoy them all, Lorrie.
