My mother (the artist/seamstress/quilter) made this 3 panel quilt to hang in my new University office.
My mother also gave me this sweet yellow enamel cup filled with all kinds of lovely trims to use on future crafting projects.
My sister gave me these stunning matching sunglasses to wear on our upcoming antique flea market trip scheduled for Saturday.
My Aunts gave me this pitcher which was formally my grandmother's and was used to pour morning milk on my mother/Aunt Jean's breakfast cereal.
Chris and the girls are treating me to dinner and gifts later this evening. We're just full of birthday celebrations around here. Next up is Josie's superhero birthday party.
She's turning five on June 10th and I haven't even begun to plot her party decor yet. Guess it's time to take down the Bieber Fever tree in our sunroom and replace it with superheros.
To share my festive mood, I've giving away a few Kim K creations (button bouquet and a mod podge decorative candle) along with a vintage hankie and some of my favorite Jasmine tea).
Entering is super easy! All you need to do is leave me a comment on this post. I'd love it if you were a follower, but there's no pressure. The girls will draw the winning name on Memorial Day 5/30 at 7pm (EST).
XOXO
