A lovely bloggy gift

I was really excited the other week when Esther of My Cuppa Charms announced that I was one of the winners of the giveaway to celebrate her first year of blogging!

Esther makes the most exquisite things and I am lucky enough to own some already - see here and here - so I knew I was in for a treat when this parcel arrived through my door.


Even the sellotape is amazing and the label is so nice with this lovely message on the back


But best of all - look at this gorgeous picture inside


Thank you so much Est - I LOVE it! There is so much detail in it with all the sequins in the middle flag stripes and the beads sewn into the "drapeau"! And as for the expression on that little bird's face - it is adorable!
