Hello there :) How are you today? I am so glad it is Friday. It has been a terrible week around here and I don't think I can take much more! So, I have decided to end the week with a post full of pretty. I would like to show some things I have received as gifts this last couple weeks as well as a couple little purchases. Above is a beautiful birthday gift I received from my good friend Rosemary. She always wraps things so beautifully!
I literally gasped when I opened this package!!! Oh I just love it. So romantic and so me!! A gorgeous big envelope that Rosemary made, from fabric! And it is adorned with one of her fabulous handmade rose clips. Also a gorgeous tag.
Isn't this fabulous? I love all the detail. These are so neat because you can clip them to your hair, a sweater, curtains, anywhere! Love :)
I also received a fabulous birthday gift from my wonderful friend Bunny of The Paris House! I adore Bunny. She is so beautiful, has the most gorgeous home, is a mom to all sons, just like me :) Bunny is so stylish and glamorous, I love to visit her blog and see what she is wearing! She also has a real and online shop called The Paris House Designs. I received some fabulous products that she carries in her shop. I think I will be hooked on them too :) Wonderful lip gloss, body butter that smells sooo good!! I LOVE products :) I also received some soap from Vermont.
And if all that wasn't enough, look at this gorgeous hand painted necklace!! I cannot wait to wear this. I just bought a top that this will look so beautiful with :)
A couple weeks ago, I was lucky enough to win this wonderful giveaway that my friend Vicki was having. I received beautiful tags, a bird brooch from England and a journal. I am going to bring this journal with me on our family vacation next month and write down special thoughts in it each day. I can also use it to get autographs. What a beautiful keepsake it will be! I will love reading back on it. Thank you so much Vicki!! You are such a sweetie :)
Last weekend I received the sweetest birthday gifts from my wonderful friend Denise! Check out the cute cuppycake towels, apron and darling magnet! I love them and they are perfect for my kitchen. I also received a gift card to Victoria's Secret!! One of my favorite stores. I cant wait to use this. Have you seen the new skinny leg capri sweats from Pink??? LOVE!! Thank you so much Denise :) I love you sweet friend.
Last week I was visiting Sandi of Wayside Treasures blog. It was White Wednesday and she showed these hearts she had made with handmade roses. Well, I just had to have one :) I emailed her and asked her if she would make me one and she kindly said yes!! It is even prettier in person and was packaged so beautifully! I love it hanging from this doorknob on my vintage cabinet door.
Isn't this darling? I adore hearts so much!
Check out this DARLING Pink Elephant!!!! This is from one of my bestest blog friends Jenn :):) I LOVE this so much, I could scream, lol! Jenn made some for her shoppe and I zipped on over and had to have one! Jenn is such a sweetie, she included Hello Kitty :):) Jelly Belly's AND Snoopy *PINK* hot chocolate. Jenn, your creations always bring a smile to my face. Thank you soooo much!!!
Blog friends are so wonderful and I honestly don't know what I would do without them sometimes. A couple of you have REALLY been there for me lately and listened to me vent, Jenn being one of them. Another I would like to thank are Lori and Celeste. I love you girls!!
Well, L-O-N-G icky January is over. Now if February would just zip on by... It has not started out as the best month!! But Hello Kitty is cute this month, isn't she? I love my cute calendar :) Thanks to my sweetie pie boys!
What are your plans for this weekend? I am not sure now if we are going to get bunnies this weekend. Chad and I have been talking and debating whether we should wait to get them until we get back from vacation. They are just babies and it is still so cold here and we have to find care for all four of them. We shall see. Sunday I am making my loaded nachos per my guys request. We couldn't care less who wins this Superbowl but it is an excuse to have nachos, lol! Next Friday is Chad's birthday. Then we get a break from birthdays until September! Thank goodness. I am ready for a nice break.
Have a wonderful weekend sweet friends! Bunny Hugs and Nose Twitches ~ Amy
The colors in the bunny pictured above just make me smile. My favorite color combination is aqua and pink with touches of white and yellow! So happy and bright. I added a pretty image of birds to this in a pink dogwood tree. A fun polka dot background, butterflies and vintage millinery just scream spring to me!!
Who doesn't love a touch of lavender in there home?? This pretty girl has such a vintage look to her! I love the way she turned out.
I used an image of a cottage in the spring flowered woods from one of my favorite vintage birthday cards. I want to live in that little house :) I came across the prettiest lavender millinery hat not to long ago and used a pretty flower from that on this bunny. So pretty!! These will be in my shoppe in a bit.
