What a nice surprise

I had to spend an hour at the dentists this morning, which is a huge deal for me, as I experienced many torturous years of ortho dentistry, as a child in a scary house on a hill, with a dirty fish tank with one frightening cat fish! So you can imagine my joy when I returned home (feeling like the elephant man and with a seriously lighter purse) to find a small, sweet smelling unexpected package. One of my most loyal & lovely customers Catherine sent me these soapsicles



I especially like the one with the bite out of it & the other smells of water melon. Catherine runs a beautiful online store selling wooden & eco friendly toys and lots more adorable stuff, my favourite products at the moment are the fairy house and the teapot cafe .
As I had my camera out and was feeling lots happier I thought I'd photograph a few other lovelies that have arrived by post in the past few months.
This doll that I've called Lola, made by the super talented projectgrabbag she is so pretty and well made & makes me smile every time I look at her.



and these three adorable bears made by the incredible anapaulaoli the little one is called Sergio & he sits by my desk in his smart red scarf looking cheeky.

  2. do you not find it funny that as we are now 'grown ups' in the world, that we spend our time and money collecting cute stuffed things that bring a smile to our faces and brighten the day...very pretty, definately should be counted as 'eye candy' i feel:)

  4. I am very interested in purchasing your prints, and am contacting you here because I don't have an Etsy account. If I purchase eight or so prints, do you offer any sort of discount?
