Before we dropped it off at the airport for it's flight it was packed lovingly with layer upon layer of bubble wrap, cellophane, cardboard and then even placed on pallets and shrunk wrapped to that. It was a little stressful to see it going on such a long journey, but I was relieved and happy when Kat informed me that it arrived the next day and was going into her office~
Fast forward to today when I checked the mailbox and saw this lovely package waiting for me!
Not only does Kat have the most beautiful writing, but she also designs jewellery (she is also our lovely sponsor EngLady) and she sent me the most darling necklace. I always feel so special when I receive a thank you card, but this just made my whole day.
I wanted to share it on so bad... but keep in mind that I totally suck at the obligatory "self portrait"
Thank you so much Kat! You are such a sweet and thoughtful person, and I really appreciate the thought you put into my special package~
(gotta love camera remotes!)

beautiful! you- and the necklace!!
How warm.
What a happy story, through to the beauitful ending! I think a lot of us have secretly loved that piece(I've personally always wanted to stumble upon some of those great blue glass powerline toppers), glad someone is able to give it the perfect home...and my what beautiful jewelry she creates! That little necklace is truely a jewel! Thanks for sharing that with us, so I could go check out all her treasures :)
PS- Even if you don't think you have mad skills at the self portrait thing, I thought that pic was really cute and perfectly endearing with your one eye peeking out behind a canted camera! Keep shooting :)
PSS- I know I always write too much, but so I meant to add... I always love your hair; you should soo do a tutorial on those cute 'I-just-threw-this-together' braid wrap things, one day! ;)

How sweet and what a beautiful necklace!
Such a gorgeous necklace!!!
Such a pretty necklace! It is always so exciting to receive a special package.
That is a gorgeous self portrait, don't be shy about that you look like a model! This is just a very lovely post.
Oh my goodness, that necklace is gorgeous! What a thoughtful gift! :)
That was so nice of her - I can't believe what it took to ship that to California!! You must have been so relieved that it got there okay.

Hi Holly! Gotta love those photos...that necklace is gorgeous, and what lovely ways to show it off!
What an awesome story!! And wow, such a lovely thank you gift!
I've just discovered your blog. I love your sense of style. May I ask, what is the piece of furniture with all the drawers called? I would love to know what it's original purposes was for...
What a gorgeous necklace! I like it even more because my name is Holly too! And her handwriting is perfect! I wonder if there is a handwriting school somewhere! Mine still looks all bubbly like I'm a teenager!
LOVE that cabinet, which I lived closer so I could buy some of your things, but I'm way over in Chicago. Quick question on something random - what is the name of the plant you have sitting on the cabinet? The leaves look sort of like a boxwood...?
