Today a mosaic of beautiful treasures from Tunisia. Emma had offered to get me a collection of goodies from her holiday, as my package in the Snail Mail Swap and I jumped at the opportunity to receive a reminder of the sunshine in the depths of winter. Her finds included the most stunning little painted bowl full of glitter and sparkle, some gorgeous skeins of yarn to play with and some green tea for me to enjoy. On top of this she also sent me a collection of the most wonderful handmade items and left me astounded by her generosity! Thank you Em, your package really did brighten my day....I hope these images of it add a bit of magic to yours!

Hello, welcome to my blog, a place I like to record things I have made, things I have seen and the things that help me to enjoy my life. I would love to hear from you by email or in the comments and will try to respond unless life gets in the way (and I have to admit that with 2 boys, 4 chickens, a naughty blue wippet and a husband that works all over the world, life does tend to get in the way quite often!)
