surprise!

do you enter giveaways all the time and never win?

think about maybe not entering anymore?

well...

don't give up!!

that was me and then all of a sudden I won not one, but two giveaways in one week!

it does happen

and today, just when I needed a "pick-me-upper" I received this wonderful parcel in the post from Mary of JMP Pastimes

just look at all the wonderful goodies inside, beautifully wrapped and packaged in shredded music sheets

almost too nice to open...

but here are all the goodies unwrapped and piled together

gardening gloves and pretty doily in this gorgeous pale blue french bucket, yummy candle, wall hook, chalkboard hanger, three regifted magazines (such a neat idea!)

and how pretty is this rose on the french bucket?

I felt totally spoilt, thanks so much Mary!!

and now I'm off to play and read magazines. Be sure to stop by at Mary's lovely blog:-) and she also sells on etsy and ebay

happy days,

Tracey
