One of my favorite things about blogging is all the on-line shops I've discovered through the blogs I've visited. This past week I received orders I placed with two of those shops. Most of my home is decorated in a country prim look, but I do love a little bit of pink & green & shabby chic. I ordered some pretty pink things from Kathryn at Our Shabby Cottage.
I ordered this beautiful pincushion for a gift, but once I received it I decided it had to be mine! Maybe I'll have to order another one!
The pillow is for my shabby chic bedroom ~ I love the image Kathryn used on it. She even included a little gift packet of some fabric, lace & buttons ~ something for me to create with!
I also bought some wonderful paper art from Kelli at There's no Place Like Home. I just love the book corners she makes. I ordered some of these for gifts too ~ fortunately there's two of each style! I can keep one for myself and share the other!
I bought some pretty tags too ~ my favorite is the blue one with the birds & brown ribbon.
I purchased this hatpin holder at an auction sometime ago ~ but I didn't have any hatpins. Just before Christmas I found this pretty hatpin at a craft show. One more and I'll have a collection!!
The other day, I saw these little houses & trees while visiting The House of Whimsy. So I stopped at Pier 1 to see them. I decided they were a little too seasonal for me BUT look what I found instead!
I love these little paper luncheon plates. I'm going to save one and take the rest to work. They'll be a cheerful addition to my lunch break!!
"Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them."
Matthew 6:26

Very pretty Marie!
What a shame the plates are paper and not ceramic! How sweet they are, as are all of the other treasures you found.

I saw those same plates today on my trip to Pier 1....because of House of Whimsey! She should be on commission. Hahahaha. I didn't buy the plates but I would have bought the napkins if they had had birds or nests on them. They were the most beautiful shade of blue. Spring-please come soon.
I had no idea you posted this Marie!!! just found it with your "link within".
Wonderful things you have ordered.
Kelli's book corners- are they book marks, or corner protectors for books?
I love her cards, and just checked out her ETSY and it is wonderful!!
Adorable pinks in first pic. Love her work!
And where did you find those paper plates?? great!! Love birds!
Blessings,
And glad i came by.
