I received the most wonderful Christmas gift from a friend! I had no idea when she showed it on her blog that it was actually under my tree when she had posted it (sneaky, huh?) But, A Spoonful Of Sugar makes everything so wonderful!
And, look at this most beautiful of gifts! I opened the envelope that was tucked under my tree with strict instructions "DON'T OPEN UNTIL DEC 25th!" Yes, many of you will recognize the Spoonful of Sugar from our wonderul friend, Cindy Adkins.
Decoupaged on the inside of this spoon is a bundle of ribbon tied letters "from the heart" and dusted
with glitter. It has pink seam binding and 5 small pink roses. It is so beautiful! The little card on the right has a photo of the Sacred Heart of Mary, (my name sake "Mary" in old Europe), and a medal of Our Lady of Lourdes (one of my favorite stories of visitations of the Blessed Mother) in France.
Also enclose in my gift is a Domino decoupaged with flowers tied with a pink ribbon laying atop a letter and envelope. Down to the last intricate detail, everything is connected! The metal tag on the chain spells out LIFE. This little tag on the right is so true ~ "Life is Sweet" ~ so very, very sweet.
Thank you Cindy, from my heart I thank you for the kindness and love you have shown me.
I will display these beautiful items where everyone will see them when they visit my home and tell them about my sweet friend in Lousiana, and where I will see them every day for inspiration!
Blessings,
Donna
