Pay It Forward Update

I am so excited to announce that I now have five friends who will be participating in the Pay It Forward swap!

This has become an international swap for me. My gifts will be going to the Ukraine, Israel, Mexico and the US!


I will be sending a gift to Ludmilla, Mary, Lainie, Drora and Rosamargarita! They, in turn, will send gifts to five of their friends.



Please visit these blogs and see all of the wonderful miniatures they create! You can also sign up there if you would like to join in the fun.

Thanks to each of you for joining in the swap! Please email me with your address so I can mail my gifts to you.

As you know, there is no time limit for sending your gifts. I hope to have mine mailed to you in a couple of weeks?

Kisses From Spain!

All I did was leave a comment at En ricon de Baldu. I told Angeles that I loved her little pillows and thought they would be perfect in my beach house. Here's the link to that post.

A few weeks ago Angeles sent me an email and said she would be sending me one of the pillows I had admired. Just look what I received in the mail today! Kisses from Spain!!!

Angeles made these pretty hand-painted canisters, candle and tray! I guess she knows that blue is my favorite color!

Her parcel not only included these things, but SIX pillows and all of these gifts for my beach house!

Aren't the pillows beautiful?! Each one has a different hand-painted design! I love the glass floats, the ship's wheel, the dolphin, the anchor buttons and the cute little wall basket she made with my initial on it! How sweet! The pictures of the seahorse and shell are perfect! Then there is a tiny tub of shells from Ibiza, Spain too! I have never seen any like them in the USA!

I had tears in my eyes as I opened each of these precious gifts. They are so perfect! I am overwhelmed with Angeles' thoughtfulness and generosity! "Muchas gracias" Angeles! I really love all of the things you sent to me! You are so kind!

I will probably never get to visit Spain but I can say I know someone very special there! Please accept my Friendship Award! You are truly a wonderful friend!


Sharing my many blessings!
