Overwhelmed

On Saturday I was inspired by another blog to display some of my cherished possessions ….. but I was also overwhelmed by generosity, can you imagine how excited I was when the postman asked me to sign for THIS parcel?

Especially when I saw who it was from…….. agggghhhhhh!!

It was crammed with all manner of treasure.

It was like Christmas and my birthday rolled into one!

One of my projects has featured on the Poundland blog,http://www.poundlandblog.co.uk/?tag=pound-shop&paged=5  so they know about my blog, which makes me feel a bit famous ….. but this gift was a lovely and much appreciated surprise!
You know when the Queen gives Warrants to her favourite shops ….. I wonder if I can officially use the Poundland logo as my warrant as – Official Crafter of Poundland Goods!

  3. Very Much Deserved :-) What a lucky lady you are. Such a lovely surprise indeed. You are going to be one very busy lady. Maybe when Poundland need a celebrity to open one of their new shops they will invite you to open it as 'Official Crafter of Poundland Goods! :-)
    I was in poundland myself today trying to find some chocolate foiled wrapped lollies, but seems it is too early for them :-( I am wanting to make some of Lisa's idea of B'day lollies. I too saw the lovely ribbon today but as I already have way too much I left it for others. I have some of their sequins too, they really are wonderful. I used them recently to embellish some RS cupcakes. Looking forward to seeing what inspires you with all your goodies.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
