Yesterday was a very happy day for me! My heart was filled with joy because I received Nat's beautiful gift. The lovely package we thought got lost in the mail finally arrived!
When Nat asked me if I was in for a swap I accepted wholeheartedly knowing that I am to expect a fabulous treat for the eyes and heaven for the soul.
And I was not mistaken! I danced like crazy around the house, leaping for joy upon seeing this gorgeous clutch in the softest pink to fit my romantic mood! The lovely flower on it is detachable so I can also wear it as a brooch! Isn't that wonderful?!
Nat was so thoughtful she hid a surprise inside. Chocolate!
I still cannot believe that I own this stunning belt! Nat crocheted it specially for me! It is so meticulously done with so tiny - mosaic-like stitches - it is amazing - and that orange part made out of whim is the perfect detail. I love it!!
And she also included this stunning fabric! I couldn't take my eyes off of it! I already know what to do with it!
And to top it all she has written the most beautiful letter, pouring her heart out... moved me to tears..Nat, you are the sweetest. I thank the heavens for having you as a friend, far away yet close to my heart! Thank you for being yourself, for having the heart you have and the love you carry with you and for the courage to share it with other people. I know I am blessed to know you!
If you are still not familiar with Nat's work you don't know what you are missing! She makes fabulous clothes and accessories. And her bags< are magnificent. For more candies visit her blog and her shop.
