I received the loveliest package in the mail this week!
It’s from the equally-lovely and very-talented Hanna, who sent a box of goodies for my birthday. How adorable is this stuffed kitty? (I tried to photograph him with Pushkin, but Pushkin’s just not having any of that right now.) And I love these warm, soft wrist-warmers, especially on these chilly office mornings.

Hanna’s letter had a charming kitty as well.

I’m so excited about this cute bag, made by Hanna’s mom. (They share an online shop together). It’s so beautifully-made. Wish I could sew this well. I can’t wait to carry it!

Displaying the perfect lining here is a vintage button-man. That hat just kills me.

And then, this handmade spiral-bound book. The pages are nice and sturdy, so I can begin my first art journal in it. And, Hanna included some choice collage bits to get me started. (Hanna’s amazing with art journaling.)
Thank you so much, Hanna! What a fantastic way to start this weekend!

That looks all sorts of awesome, and makes me somewhat wish I didn’t spend my birthday on a Tanzanian beach with no address nor mode of conact for the rest of the world. By the time I got back no one remembered I had a birthday.
Somewhat. Not really. :)
Maybe I should get myself into a swap.
