Look at these lovely buttons, aren't they just exquisite????They have been hand-painted for me by the
wonderfully talented Paula at
Painting New Memories
I'm afraid the picture does them no real justice at all,
they are so detailed, yet quite small.
It's amazing how she does it! Wonderful!
Paula also sent me 2 tiny china trinket boxes.
She asked a while ago if anyone had those initials, and no one had,
but my Mother-in-law does, so Paula kindly sent them to me
to pass on to her.
Also Paula read that I like geese, so she sent me
the cutest little goose, with freshly painted bill and feet.
Isn't it just so sweet
Thank you so much Paula, I love everything!

I thought I'd give you a quick squizz at a couple of
teacosies I've been working on.
Another Elaine at Shabby Chic Cafe
asked me a few weeks ago if I would have a go at
making her a hen or cockerel teacosy
and these are what I came up with.
Elaine chose the sage and lemon one
and I've put the other one in
my blogshop.
Thank you for asking me to make them Elaine
I really enjoyed designing them.
Love and blessings in Christ
Elaine

Hi there, I was just wondering, do you know of anyone who is looking for a swap partner? I am longing to join in on this swapping lark, so any help you could give me would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks So Much

Hi Melanie,
We have a lovely monthly swap on Shabby Chic Cafe. We have a different theme for each month, and we never know who we are sending to until the 1st of the month.
The swap for May is open until the 14th (I think), and it is thoroughly enjoyable.
There is a link on my blog for the Forum, it's such a friendly place too, and we'd love to see you there.
Love and blessings

Thanks Elaine, I will check that out.

Love Melanie xxx
Well you are not just clever making those lovely tea cosies but also very lucky to have those fab buttons. I would love to get into selling stuff but the family put to much strain on my time at the moment but maybe one day.
Have a great day best wishes Pat.
