Finally home after our whirlwind trip to Florida to celebrate my father in law's 90th birthday! It was great to be together with our family for a few days although it was incredibly cold for Florida.....26 degrees this morning!
The beautiful Cathy Penton charm above was received from the fabulous Julie of Being Ruby....
I was so lucky to be one of the winners of her give away in November. I have tied a beautiful blue vintage silk ribbon to my inky blue Paris charm....The ribbon came all the way from France and was part of the paper bundle that I purchased from Corey at Tongue in Cheek Antiques.....Thank you again Julie and Corey!
Don't they look perfect together?
Time for bed! Good night! :)
They look beautiful together! Love the blue ribbon with the charm.
ReplyDeleteLOVE that, how special. Congrats on your winning the giveaway! Looks great together.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are safe at home after your travels. We are getting ready to go to Berlin today in all the snow. :/
Hugs,
Rhonda
Oooo , Laura,
ReplyDeleteI don't mind telling you that I was a little envious of that particular giveaway win. It is so beautiful...... mind you, it couldn't have gone to a better home and you've even enhanced it with that lovely ribbon.
I think that you and the charm were meant to be together, it being blue and all !! XXXX
Ahh my favourite colour. Specially when it's inky!!
