30 days of gratitude : 30 (+ a sweet something for you)


Gratitude today for you dear reader...on my last 'official' day of gratitude. 30 days of noticing the little things that make me happy. Without being all gushy, lovey and goo-gaa, I'd just like to say that all those comments are so welcome in my life. They make my days. So thank you.

What's most exciting is that these posts have proven that writing, for me, is a given. It's what I do. Pencil and pen on paper, fingers on the keyboard. And now that I'm a muma I have learnt to compose sentences in my head. I thread words together until a spare moment arises whereby I reach for a piece of paper - a bill, an envelope, sometimes the pages of someone's else's novel.

More on this to follow.

Today I am parting with another gorgeous, gorgeous clothkit. A magenta dress perfect for an evening out with your love. It can be made for sizes 8-18. It's a bit folksy, a bit of night-time glamour - it's pure 70s style. "A tropical print dress with rounded collar and tie, side pockets and easy buttoned elastic waist."

I truly love this one but in sticking with my Spring mantra, I'm giving it away. All you have to do is leave a comment. I'll announce the winner next Sunday evening. You can read more about clothkits here.

Sending some good ole vintage luck your way.

  4. Yes, I too enjoyed the 30 days of gratitude. It's reminded me of the importance of little things that I sometimes overlook! And, get out of town - I can't believe you're giving away another one of your clothkits! As I won the last, I couldn't possibly tip my hat in for this one...or could I?!! Nooo, must restrain myself.
