Pay It Forward!

Here is a really cool idea I discovered on Candice's blog Sweet Romance. She says that Karen at~Extroverted Introspection started this. If anyone knows for sure, please inform me. This is such a fun idea! I love the concept of sending someone a little piece of happiness.

So far: Mishcat and GloryBe


Here's how it works: If you are one of the first three people to leave a comment on this post (stating that you'd like to participate), sometime in the next few months you will receive, in the mail, something cool that I've hand~ made~Just For You !!! Come join in the fun! The only request is that you include the above logo on your blog. And on it goes! This should be fun! Leave your comment below and start watching the mail!!! Be sure to leave your email so I can contact you to get your mailing address. (needed to ship your gift) .......Let's see how far we can "Pay It Forward".

Now go check out Candice's blog and etsy shop and lollishop!


And in the spirit of sending out little packets of happiness, I love this quote I read on Savon Shoppe'sblog.

It isn't the size of the gift that matters, but the size of the heart that gives it.
~Quoted in The Angels' Little Instruction Book byEileen Elias Freeman, 1994


PS: You absolutely must check out the incredible soaps at Savon Shoppe!

look what I won!

for agreeing to pay it forward!

Candice of Sweet Romance sent me this sweet little gift package! It arrived today and I just cannot wait to share it! So come and open the package with me...

I open up the padded envelope and discover this cute little box inside. Candice's card is attached on the bottom.



Now look at how lovely this box is! A nest of eggs is stamped on the top and the box is tied with fushia organdy ribbon. I can't wait to see the surprise inside!


And when I open the box I discover a pair of beautiful silver earrings! (In the above photograph you will also see a couple lovely hand~made clasps which I ordered and that Candice included. I can't wait to use these.)

So now you are wondering how I was so lucky to receive such a lovely gift. It was all because I agreed to "pay it forward." Check out Candice's post for details. I will be posting my own PAY IT FORWARD on April 20.

Candice makes the most gorgeous jewelry. Please check out her shops: etsy lollishops
