I arrived home to find two wonderful items in my mailbox.

The first was the book Saving CeeCee Honeycutt by Beth Hoffman. I entered to win this book over at Julie’s blog When I entered I must have missed the part about it being an autographed copy. I was so excited when I opened the book to see that it was signed. As soon as I’ve read it I’ll post a review. Julie has wonderful book reviews. Stop on over and see what she reading.

The other was a frilly cuff bracelet from April. She was hosting a giveaway that I entered and her beautiful daughter drew my name. I think it was fate since my daughter’s name is Emma and so is her daughter’s name. April’s blog is full of Victorian vintage loveliness. Stop by her blog and say Hi.

There is such pretty beading and details on the bracelet. I especially love the pink rhinestones.

Thanks to both Julie and April for making my day brighter.

Cheers…
