T'was the Season for Giving and Receiving

Just a couple of very lovely gift to share
that I received at the end of 2013
to show you some
wonderful talent from beautiful bloggers.

Firstly this from Dorthe
a very dear woman whose friendship
has blossomed into something very special and dear
to my heart over
the years of blogging.




We are always surrounded by angels


 and it is something quite unique to 


see them become represented through the eyes


of talented people such as the likes of Dorthe -
(Denlillelade)


Isn't her dress in broderie anglais lace so beautiful
and her little stitched shoes?


Snow white hair  with her dress adorned in laces and pearls!


with no detail unfinished.  She truly is a Winter Angel
from the Northern Hemisphere.

She is as adorable as her creator don't you think?
and so many others can testify to this!!!
Heartfelt thanks my dear dear friend
she will live in my studio until
Christmas comes around again.

From another part of the world in North Carolina
came this beautiful  Christmas box from
(Artful Affirmations)



filled to the brim with the most beautiful and surprising gifts




you could imagine. My jaw just dropped!




There is so much giving in the spirit of love




when your bloggy friends really "know" you!
A vintage Christmas Angel collage




a most beautiful linen Christmas stocking also
from the hands of Terri




edged in layers of tattered, worn and stained
vintage laces!
So much love and thought gone into all the little details of
these beautiful creations!



Inside the handmade stocking there were also a number




of little parcels containing all number of things from
a container of paper snowflakes,
seam binding, reels of laces,
a number of linen doilies, a vintage lace collar,




 a magnificent piece of vintage tattered black embroidered
lace, buttons, a medal of Mary and other pieces
to embellish with.







In the box also were some special pieces of French
ephemera as well as some cabinet cards of women
and some of Terri's favorite tea bags of
baked cinnamon apple which, no doubt,
she has shared with all those who follow her
Teacup Tuesday posts.

My heart has been so touched by these amazing treasures
that Terri has keeping her eye out for in
planning this amazing gift!

Now who wouldn't feel blessed to have friends
 like these? I know for sure that I am!
Thank you so very much for showing me so much kindness
I am so very very appreciative!





The very least I could offer is a bouquet of roses



straight from the garden!


Let there be plenty of love to share around everyday
with everyone that you can - it could even be a wonderful
New Year's resolution!
