I love hearts . . .

Happy Valentine's day,
Wishing you a day filled with love . . .


The Hubby has been working way too hard lately so on the spur of the moment, he decided to take today off - YAY . .  {very happy face} - so this morning we took ourselves out for a yummy brunch {eggs benedict: me, salmon & cream cheese bagel: him} at a favourite little spot in a lovely little village not too far away.
The sky is blue, the sun is shining and the snow is melting away . . . could it be that Spring is just around the corner?

So, as it's a day to celebrate all-things-hearts, I thought I'd share some pics of the fab parcel of goodies I received from Hazel, my lovely swap partner in All4MeggyMoo's
 "I Love Hearts" Swap.


Don't you just love these sweet heart doilies ? 


An oh-so-pretty heart cushion, yummy chocs (which I have to confess, we have already eaten), a sweet framed crocheted heart, a lovely mug, candle holder with some linen-scented tealights, and two beautifully crocheted little hanging hearts. 
Thanks Hazel - everything is just SO me : - )

And here's a wee peek of what I sent to Hazel:
{sans basket, that is just a prop for the pic}


This was such a fun swap to take part in.  Thanks Shelley, for organising it.

xoxo

  16. I just love hearts. What beautiful goodies you got from Hazel. I have been trying to teach myself how to crochet hearts but it turns out I am not very happy with them.
    Happy Valentine's Day.
