Yes, ladies, as you can see, a little pin box has disappeared from my christmas wish list and landed in my hand, all thanks to my special friend Sarah who is champion of all things shabby chic and food related. I love her blog for the fabulous pictures of the simple, homely yummy food. I was feeling down at the beginning of the week so she sent me this gorgeous box and now I can't stop pinning things. Thank you, special friend!
I was just sitting here thinking back to 5 years ago. I was in Richmond and there was a delightful shop called Papillon Rose which sold a whole load of Cath Kidston and other shabby chic beauties. The lady behind the counter was listening to Nora Jones whilst chatting away on the phone. She seemed so blase about sitting in such a heavenly shop, and i so dreamed of being her. That's ll I wanted to do from that moment on. Well, just five minutes ago I caught myself sitting behind my counter, Nora Jones' velvet tones filling the room and I gazed at all the gorgeous things that fill my shop. I can see why it is now some people's favourite shop now. I told a customer yesterday that if I want something beautiful, I just come into the shop and take it. It's like shoplifting with a conscience!
I hope to get some free time this afternoon though. It would be nice to pop down to the beach for half an hour and get some fresh air.
you are welcome hun. happy pinning!
