Last week I was delighted to receive a pretty little parcel in the post.
I was one of the lucky winners of the recent Silly Old Suitcase giveaway. A surprise package of treasures from the lovely Maartje.
Maartje put together a gorgeous gift for me, all packaged prettily with a handwritten note.
My parcel of treasures included,
a button brooch,
a wooden crochet hook,
a crochet bow brooch,
a flower necklace,
pretty fabric pieces,
and scrapbooking supplies.
I am feeling a little spoilt and so grateful for the thought and care that went into my gift.
I want to say a big thank you to Maartje. I can't wait to get creative with my new supplies and I have already worn the pretty button brooch and necklace.
Maartje has a beautiful etsy shop also called Silly Old Suitcase. It is well worth a visit. She makes gorgeous things. Maartje is on holiday at the moment but will reopen soon.

I'm off out after tea to a handmade christmas class. I can't wait. How easily amused am I?
