.....I Love The Small Packages!

Yesterday....this gorgeously wrapped small package came
in the mail. It made me really happy because yesterday
July 14 was my 21st wedding anniversary. It wasn't from Jeff.....
rather from LuLu Kellogg. I was anxiously awaiting this
package since the day I ordered it.

Here's what was inside....this awesome pendent. I love anything
with a fluer-di-lis. So I was smitten with this piece anyway.
What really sold me though....was LuLu found this vintage
drawer pull in the basement of her 1890's Victorian home.
Stories like that just get me....because as you are well aware I live
in a vintage farm house from the 1850's. I love this piece....and I am
sure it will always be one of my favorites.

I guess I just might as well confess....I have sort of been on
a spending spree. Look at this lovely.....(which isn't captured as
beautifully on camera as it is in person). This piece was created
by Kim Hanauer. It is created from a 1950's stretch rhinestone
bracelet with a gorgeous rhinestone broach attached. I love
it's casual....yet dressing look.....plus it is super comfortable. I
don't buy into the old adage....it's better to look beautiful....than
feel beautiful. I guess when you are 45 & married 21 years.....
comfort is a big plus! I hope you have enjoyed seeing my
purchases. Thank you to my lovely friends for
being so creative & beautifully talented.
