Pink Things Come in Little Packages From à la parisienne Blog

Last month one of my favorite bloggers, à la parisienne, posted a giveaway and low and behold, I WON!   In case you aren't familiar with her blog, you might want to stop in and visit Mandy's site.   I love her site because it's beautiful and I love it even more because of Mandy's beautiful spirit that comes through in everything she posts.

I hate to boast but I can't wait to show you the lovely gifts that were part of the giveaway.   My husband and I opened the small box together and he was just as excited as me to see the contents.  



After we read the enclosures we spotted the beautiful pink silk flower. 

Don't you just love the dainty pearl center?   I can't wait to wear this on my sweaters and coat.  The flower has a clip and pin backing so it can be worn on a garment or clipped to your hair.

Then there was a small box. 


Earring!!!  I just love jewelry and aren't these beautiful? 


And underneath everything was a beautiful CD!!!


 Mandy had posted about her romantic evening out and I loved listening to Pink Martini.   Click here to read about her romantic date.   Aren't they a beautiful couple!!
If you want to see more beautiful things that Mandy has made visit her Etsy store

Mandy, I hope you read this post.  THANK YOU!!!   This weekend I'll be wearing my pink and listing to my Pink Martini CD.  

Today I'm linking up with How Sweet the Sound's Pink Saturday to showcase all the PINK!

  6. Thanks for letting me know about Mandy! She's certainly thoughtful and very talented. I'm especially taken with the Silk Flower Corsage! Funny that you should have posted about it today as I've posted about Corsages, too. Hope you'll stop by CollectInTexas Gal and see my Bouquet de Pink Corsage Post. Happy Pink Saturday!!!
