We've had photographers here again and what better excuse to buy myself some favourite spring flowers?! I do so love these flopsy tulips....
and these miniature daffodils by my bedside are so cheery in the morning now that the sun is up early again!
I wish you could smell their spring filled scent; such a lovely wake-up call they are!
More tulips in the hall... they were in the sitting room but it's so warm when the stove is roaring away that they have wouldn't lasted a day!
and of course there's always the odd bud that gets knocked off....
or even a few too heavy for their stems!
Oh and look! I've told you how hopeless I am with houseplants but now I'm on a roll! For the second year running my very own hyacinth! So exciting!
And more excitement here! A parcel surprise from lovely Julie over at KC'scourt. This is a PIY - a 'Pay it Forward'! I get a lovely gift in the post from Julie and then I find someone who wants a gift from me and they find someone to receive a gift from them and on it goes - paying forward! What a lovely idea! If anyone wants to play do drop me an email!
Oh and what a lovely parcel it was! I have no idea where those chocolates vanished off to - whoosh - they just went! And do you want to see what's in that little package? Once again I wish you could smell the lovely scent of the lavender heart! A blast of summer on a grey winter's day!
Oh and look at that lovely pink brooch! You can see the colour better here....Perfect pink for me and if you want one too, Julie makes lots of different colours so pop on over and say hello!
I could almost eat it! YUM!! And speaking of yum I've been playing with candlewick... all those lovely ice-cream colours....
I love candlewick, I love the patterns, the texture and did I mention the ice-cream colours? I have a few vintage cot spreads in my collection....this funny little chap
Why is he wearing those wonderfully clunky boots?
And then this seasonal little bunny....
and speaking of bunnys....snip snip snip....
it's that time of year again and I need to get these little lovelies made up into a parade of my own barmy bunnies to deliver to the seaside at the end of the week....
So I'll be back SOON for an update and a giveaway... oh I'm excited. I have a little plan for you already... (and lovely kittikins, if you're popping by, your brooch is boxed up and ready to go - I just haven't had a moment to get to the post office! Soooooon I promise!) Hope you're all enjoying a productive week now the holiday is over. t.xx
(Why the photos? Ah. Now. There's a tale to tell another day!)
Thank-you everyone! Penny and Helen were the first to get in touch so I'll be sending a little P.I.F. to each of them sometime in the next month or so! t.xx

Play it forward is a lovely thing to do isn't it - we do it in the crafting world too - a much nicer thing to do than that awful 'chain mail' that used to go around.
Can't wait to see all the stunning photos
Happy happy spring - and hope those bunnies spring off your sale table pdq

Love the tulips.
So glad you liked your gifts.
