Advent Calendar

Happy December to all of you! 

I'm just over the moon, not only because I love this whole month, but because this beauty of advent calendar arrived on my door step yesterday.

This is the second advent calendar someone has ever made for me, and I'm just speechless and in awe. I mean, just look at it. Isn't it the most gorgeous thing you've seen in a while? Can you feel the love that went into this? Look at all those little brown packages, the white written numbers, and all that yarn tying them together. Perfection!!

I am afraid if I open one the whole thing will just vanish. For now I will just enjoy looking at them, and when I get the "urgent urge" I will unwrap, maybe one at a time, maybe all in the same day. I'm giddy with excitement, just as my kids are on Christmas day!!

I wish you a wonderful month... may you find the time to do what you truly love and spend it with the amazing people in your life.

P.S:Julia, I send you the biggest hug. THANK YOU!!

A Christmas Gift

As you've read before, I love packages. Unexpected ones are even better. And when you can see the love and dedication someone has put into it, well that is just a perfect package isn't it? Add to this, handmade just for me, and well, you can see for yourself!
My pen pal and blog friend Puk sent me such a package for Christmas (and I couldn't wait until Christmas to open it). Thank you so much Puk, for such a delightful package!

If you want to see more stamp and crochet ideas do follow her blog, it is a constant source of inspiration! 

It looks as if it was made especially for this spot, don't you think?

This crochet envelope/clutch is absolutely beautiful, and I love the color and stitch!

Have a lovely Sunday!
