I got home from work yesterday and outside my door was a plank of wood...I gingerly picked it up and underneath it was a parcel that my Postie had hidden for me.They were made for my by a lovely lady that follows my blog Carol she had a stall at out Easter fair. She sells under the name “Sara Carol Makes” and the reason for the name is so sweet I am sure she won’t mind if I share it with you.
My daughter is 29 now but when she was little we always played shops and I had to stand still whilst Sara did "clothes alterations" she used to write in a little book she called Sara Carol Makes and draw pictures of things in our "shop" and put prices on them, I still have the book so when I started making my knitted goods and other bits and pieces I had some labels made with the name on and they have a lovely picture of a little girl playing with a dolly tub.
Thank you Carol for your generous gift and also for sharing that great little story I just loved it and am sure other bloggers will to.
What adorable chickens and such a lovely gift!

I'm blog hopping this morning and found yours. Hubby and I will be married 36 years this May. I love vintage too. I have many cherished things passed down from parents, in-laws and brother. I just joined your blog as a follower. Come over and visit and see if you like my blog.

Hi Debbie,
ReplyDeleteIt's me again. Thanks for becoming a follower of my blog. We live about an hour away from Lancaster PA and enjoy driving out there for the day. My hubby likes Strasburg for the trains and he is very good about taking me to the shoppes. We like to visit Gettysburg too - they built a brand new visitor center that opened last year that is fantastic. And you won't believe this but I was born in Baltimore! It was sort of a fluke that my parents moved there and they were only there for about two years I think. So I don't remember anything about living there although my oldest brother does. Hubby and I were raised in Ohio (Cleveland area). Are you from the States? Or do you just visit here? It must be fun to live in a real cottage in the UK. Have a great night.
Hugs,
Teacup Lane (Sandy)
