It has been a while since I last stopped in and I feel like I am always making excuses for my absence.
I am still alive, nothing new or exciting happening, just life.
I bought some gifts a while ago from Madeit and I was really impressed with them so I just had to share.
Both gifts were for my lovely Sisters in Law
My first purchase was from Bagdebliss and as usual I was a bit late to organise a gift so I arranged for the gift to be delivered directly to my Sister in Law.
My SIL loved her gift and look at the lovely invoice that I received along with a bonus badge just for me!
The next gift was for my other SIL.
I found this beautiful beanie and apron from MirandasCreations.
Both buys were the best value and the quality was excellent.
Unique hand made items make a really special gift.
I even managed to make a special card to go with the gift.
I really enjoy making cards but only when I have the time, not when I am in a rush.
Is it terrible to admit that I recycled the paper from a gift someone gave to me.
It was just so pretty that I wanted to use it again.

lovely gorgeous gifts nellie!! i dont think it s a problem to use paper from a pressie, its just so lovely! i love the print! Hope you are doing well lovely lady!! hugs from laura xxx
ReplyDeleteI don't use madeit but love Etsy, though am never organized enough to think of it for pressies. Gorgeous choices here and how pretty is the card you made. I think it's a nice idea to reuse the pretty paper.
ReplyDeleteHope you are well xx
What beautiful gifts. I love that beanie so will have to check out that store. Your accompanying card is so pretty. I know what you mean about enjoying crafty activities when you have time, I hate feeling as though I'm rushing something x
ReplyDeleteNellie you did a wonderful job with that card and I love how the card matches the present too, it all looks so pretty. I sometimes forget to look on madeit for gifts, I usually try and make mine as much as I can but if not we have some local shops here that sell a lot of handmade gifts so I try and go there and buy some. That pink beanie is so sweet, I bet your SIL loved receiving it. xo
ReplyDeleteI have used Etsy but never thought about it for gifts~ don't know why I haven't? Love the card you made it looks so gorgeous with the present..very special X
