pay it forward...



I don't know if anyone can make a package as quite as pretty as Melissa from Design Delights.

This morning I received this lovely package topped with a pretty little baker's twine heart....
too pretty to open and inside were beautiful little vellum envelopes sealed with adorable printed tapes.
Inside of those little vellum envelopes were the most gorgeous little Etsy surprises from the linen handprinted bags to the little wooden pencils with the words, 'happy day to you', the packages of bakers twine to hold the sweet hand made vintage looking tags, fun unicorn thank you cards with checkered envelopes, a wonderful diary that I know will help me be more grateful for all the little things in life, a teensy little red with white polka dotted mushroom that Bella is sure was meant to be a ring for her little finger





and my very favourite was the contents of a little linen bag with a camera printed on it: adorable seeds that look like mini pumpkins and the sweetest hand made acorn made with the cheeriest green wool along a wonderful wooden, faux boix heart pin.

Hoping I can pay it forward to three other people in as beautiful a fashion as my sweet friend, Melissa?
I am not sure how, but I will be busy thinking about my pay it forward giveaway this week and will be sure to share it all with you next week.
Happy Weekend!
What are you all doing this weekend?
xoxo
luv,

You are way too kind Dee. You made it look even better the way you spread it out and took pictures, and I like the way you hung the tags and heart on those branches. I need a little more practice in that area of picture taking. I am so glad you enjoyed it all and hope that the little book will help encourage you in all the good things in life. Luv ya lots, xoxo.
