Feeling the LOVE...


Hi friends
I know Ive been posting alot this week, but it seems I have alot to share. lol.
I received this beautiful union jack throw in the mail today...


Handmade with love by my sweet friend Sherry.
It is huge and perfect for my large wall in my new living room.
The colours are beautiful and the shabby chic fabrics are so pretty.



THANK YOU so much Sherry ~ I will always cherish this piece.


Two of my favourites...
shells & roses


Also to my surprise today I received this lovely glass candleholder by Glassybaby in the mail,,,


The note inside just read " With Love " 
but 
no info as to who sent this lovely gift.
THANK YOU to whoever was so thoughtful to send me this candle holder. I have always wanted one of these. I would have chosen this exact one in white also, so whoever sent it definitely knows me well.

I feel so loved today thanks to two sweet and thoughtful friends.
xoxo,
Rachel

ps. Thanks so much to everyone who leaves me comments here on my blog..I read each and every one and appreciate them so much.
