Christmas came early

Fate favoured me in Denise's prize draw for the translucent tangerine vinyl vase from Freshly Found.

So I went to collect my prize (no point in posting between two Durbanites) and Denise gave me a bag which I thought contained only this gorgeous vase.

When I opened the parcel at home I found it was FULL! of lovely lovely LOVELY! goodies from Freshly Found.

I was so surprised. Opening all the beautifully wrapped gifts was like an early Christmas.

Alphabet Bags - Yay Hooray!

Okay, I confess, I'm still window shopping online (pssst, check out these actual Christmas window displays in London) and today I found these lovely Alphabet Bags by Rob Ryan (of the laser-cut paper art fame).

Guess which letter I'm wanting most...

Hello Kitty pasta - SO COOL!

I love this. I don't even know why. I think it's the logo fiend inside me.

Woolworths (bless them) has got Hello Kitty pasta on their shelves.

Spotted today at my local Woolies.

Hand-made Christmas gift

I bought this last year for my aunt and have finally made it up in time to give it to her for Christmas.
