New Treasure

Hi all, hope your having a great week. I received a wonderful treasure in the mail today from Tracey at French Larkspur. I had ordered this jute rug a week ago and when I opened the package I loved it even more in person!! Tracey packaged it so beautifully, I didn't want to unwrap it.






I ordered this jute rug for something special that's hopefully  happening next month, so I can't show you what it looks like just yet. Just a little sneak peek!


I got this cute little vintage English marmalade pot from Country Roads the other day. I think it will look beautiful with flowers in it.

Well, I'm signing off for now. Have a lovely night.
Sincerely,
Melinda

  3. I love all your new pretty things, Melinda. I won a giveaway from Tracey awhile back and, you're right, she does package things up so nicely. Love your marmalade jar too...I have a little collection of those. Every once in awhile you'll see them in my photos :)

  5. I'm going to have to check the jute rugs @ Tracey's. You're so fortunate to be by Country Roads. I love Kate's goods and would love to be close by, she's a sweet soul with the best taste.

    Maybe we could work something out... you travel to Country Roads for me and I will shop Alameda and Petaluma for you.

  10. Oh what a pretty parcel! I adore packages that have been wrapped with love and care, I can see why you wanted to enjoy it unwrapped for a while! Can wait to see the rug in situ! Hugs from a 500 year old farmhouse in England - Glenda xxx
