AN ORDER THAT RESULTED IN SO MUCH BEAUTY AND GOODNESS FROM A DEAR FRIEND!


Once in November I ordered this sweet and beautiful hanger from 
my very dear friend, Paula .
We have been friends for many,many years now, and have followed each
other through both  hard and happy years- and I love her very much.
I Could not other than fall in love ,when seing  this in      Paulas Etsy shop   , and had to have 
her lovely little bird nesting in it`s own pocket.


Isen`t it the sweetest !! , and the dear soul added one more strawberry,
lovely lace and buttons ,-Paula sews almost everything by hand
and so beautiful!!


But OH my goodness- look at all this amazing ,and beautiful pieces
that Paula had packed for me.
I was totally overwhelmed when recieving all this lovelyness.
Sweetest friend, you so totally spoiled me ,from your
amazing good heart!


As a special christmas gift Paula had crocheted this wonderful  necklace,
that is so beautiful, and so warm for wintertime. I love to wear it, and it fits 
so many of my blouses.


And the dear heart ,also made me this lovely and adorable heart.
Isen`t it beautiful!!!


On top of all that another hanger, with miss chocolate birdie,
resting beautifully, with her gorgeous wing of old laces, and the big 
bow of seambinding. 
I so love all dear Paula`s handmade beautiful pieces!!


But oh so many other treasures were packed in this box, -like the 
white ckristmas boot ,the sweet pincussion and darling socks.
And I can tell you, that the handkerchief is the most fragile lovely piece ,too!


And see what this dear friend also send me... Paula knows I collect old
children booties, and shoes, and I am so in love with these  3--
click the picture to read the note in the shoe ,please . 


There are the cutest acorns and old flowers,


Look how beautiful...


and this handmade piece, I don`t know what it has been used for... or a bag or a hat,
the silk ribbons are very fragile, and the work so gorgeous.


Two lovely old photoes, and a little cute felted bird, 


A pearl embroidered ribbon and a sweet glittering deer, with the wonderful christmas card for me.


And this  old fantastic fan, Oh how I can see a lovely woman using this a warm summerday!!


Another wonderful treasure is this childs coat, so soft and so lovely
embroidered in a soft blue tone.
Isen`t it beautiful? And isen`t it a fantastic gift.


The last gift from this box of pure goodness, was a magazine, showing 
many pretty and wonderful homes. Thank you so much
my dear ,we can`t buy those mags. in Denmark. 


Dearest sweet friend, Paula, thank you from my heart, you are such a
beautiful person, and I treasure your friendship so much, and am so happy,
that we after so many years still are the best friends,- I`m sure it will last forever.

Welcome  to new followers you are so appreciated all!

And for now thank you for spending time with me enjoying all the beauty in my box.

Much love and hugs and a happy weekend to all dear friend.

What gorgeous treasures your friend Paula has sent to you Dorthe. Each individual item is just so wonderful, the shoes are particularly beautiful. How lovely of your friend to pack a box full of treasures for you to unpack. The child's coat is just a true gem, such stitching and style. It must have taken you a long time to unwrap all of your gifts. I love the necklace she made too. So wonderful to have such a generous friend Dorthe x

Overwhelmed but in a beautiful way, you surely had tears in your eyes at the generosity of your friend and the touching gifts she created for you, the necklace, the strawberries and the other bird but it is that she knows you inside and out, exactly what you favour in life, such as those adorable shoes, I wonder what stories they would tell us.
A beautiful post of friendship.
Wishes to you
Lynne
P.S. I will chat soon :)

Hello dearest Dorthe
It's so lovely to see you have posted - I'm running late!

What treasures Paula has made for you - she is so talented and kind.
You must have been "over the moon" to open such a parcel and find so many beautiful pieces.

I love little children's clothes and that sweet little coat is exquisite.
You are a very special friend to receive this.
I would hang it in my bedroom with another sweet baby's dress I found at a Brocante in France a couple of years ago. Where will you hang yours Dorthe?

Wishing you a happy weekend staying cosy and warm by the fireside!
Hugs and love
Shane
