The next package came from Janet of It’s and Evolution. Her beautiful wands were featured on Today’s Creative Blog for one of her Fabulous Friday giveaways and I won. Since I almost never win anything, I was so excited because Janet was willing to design a wand especially for the lucky winner. I fell in love with her pumpkin wands and chose one of those, but told her I rarely ever use orange so look what I got. I love to think of it as Cinderella's Wand because I feel like a princess whenever I see it--with this adorable white pumpkin.

The charms on it are all sewing related, and the handle of the wand is wrapped in the page from a book.---But not any book, in keeping with the theme of Halloween, the page is from Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Raven.” I immediately had to find a clear vase and put it on display, so that the page of the book was visible.

The last box came from my MIL who blessed me with many of her gently used clothes. After having spent 6 years at home raising my kids my wardrobe has been stretched to the limit to get me nicely dressed for work. Honestly, if I had my druthers I would wear jeans and a nice white shirt every day. Those are my comfort clothes, but I try to limit myself. Thankfully, I still get to wear jeans to the office! But I digress, my MIL love to shop at Chico's and Coldwater Creek--places I go in and drool over the clothes, but walk away without a shopping bag so it is always a treat getting these boxes in the mail.
I got one other present a couple of weeks ago, but it didn't come in the mail. This one was special delivery from my mom. A Cricut die cutting machine of my very own.

I think that scrapbooking could become every bit as addicting as quilting. It is so much fun to cut out embellishments for making cards. Or do something really elaborate and make my very own Charger cheerleaders. Hmm--maybe I could get the team a new coach the same way.

That's all for now.
Have a great day everyone,
