Friday’s Sparkle…..

Sparklepins

"Never let anyone dull your Sparkle….."

Last Saturday after our Tai Chi class, my friend, Donna, handed me a lovely hand made box and tucked inside were these beautiful nesting pins.  She reads my blog and knows that my word for 2015 is "Sparkle", so she gifted me this special treat. 
OMGoodness!!, every day I look at these lovely art deco pins from the 1930's and I smile. 
Yes, Donna…you know me well!!  I will treasure these forever!

Donna, who not only has given 3 of my dogs the most wonderful home, is also the person who introduced me to Tai Chi and for that I will forever be grateful for as well.

Today when I visited Facebook, I had a congratulatory note regarding this picture appearing on Chic Knits new Winter Newsletter.  What?? 

I had forgotten to change my email address at Chic Knits, so I didn't receive my newsletter from Chic Knits today.  Needless to say that I was beyond excited and flattered to have Bonne use this picture of Ashley in her lovely Elisbeth Headband!  Thank you Bonne Marie!

As you can see in the first photo, tucked underneath those beautiful sparkly pins, is another headband heading out today for the very generous woman who purchased it during the auction I mentioned last week.

Two sparkles in one week that have made me smile big! 
If you look hard enough, there is always a little sparkle somewhere.

Sparkle On and have a wonderful weekend!!

  1. I saw the photo this morning, too! I need to pop into my Woolen Rabbit stash and get another Elisbeth on the needles. I loved the one I made for my daughter (and the matching Tauriel) and now need one for myself.

  3. The pins are a perfect little remembrance of you year of “sparkle” and of your friendship with Donna. Your life has done nothing but sparkle since you picked that word. Sparkle on, dear one!
