I've had mail!

The postman brought a lovely surprise this morning.

A package all the way from Italy and my blog friend Michela,

from Little Secrets from my garden.

When I opened the envelope, I discovered two gifts and a card. The paper was beautiful butterflies and the ribbons in my favourite colours of green and purple!

The green gift was these beautiful beads, containing a flower design.

They really are so pretty, I am not sure I have been able to do them justice in this photo.

The purple gift, was this little bag with my initial embroidered on it. So pretty as well, perfect for a lavender bag, or even to store some nice beads!

Michela, the gifts are wonderful and shows a lot of thought was put to them.

A very BIG thank you.

Michela was taking part in a pay it forward, having received a gift herself she then sends one on to someone else, in the hope that they too will forward on a gift to someone.

As I was lucky enough to receive two gifts, I would like to send a little gift to two other people.

It is so nice to get surprises in the mail!

I will send a gift to the first two people to comment on this post.

Please email me your addresses and I will send it during

the next month when you least expect it!

Today is the launch of a new website promoting UK handmade crafts - WowThankYou

The aim is to promote the talents of artisans from all over the UK. With over 1000 products currently on offer, from 230 small, often home-based businesses. WowThankYou encourages the general public to look beyond the shopping centres and buy unique, home-grown gifts instead.

WowThankYou has been set up by friends Tracey Kifford and Georgena Bowdidge who, having suspended their careers to look after young children, conceived the business concept after failing to find ‘different’ quality gifts online.

So, when you have a spare moment today or over the weekend, pop over to the WowThankYou site and see what they have to offer.
