mail. part 3

My third precious parcel came from the Art Farm, handmade by the incredibly talented, Stephanie.

I was the fortunate winner during a special giveaway on her blog.  It's rare that I win anything so you can imagine how thrilled I was when my name was drawn.  The packaging alone deserves a place on my shelf.  

This necklace will always be treasured!  The crocheted chain and the tiny floral print took my breath away.  It's delicate and light, it's the perfect length, and so obviously made with love.

I regret that I left this necklace in Los Angeles.  I don't often bring jewelry with me when we travel because I tend to lose it.  These photos don't really do it justice.  What you can't see too well is the detail of the flower as well as the crystal button that she chose to close the necklace, such a thoughtful touch.

I adore this necklace and I thank you, Stephanie, for this, for your inspiring blog, and for all of the beauty and color you bring to your readers and well as all of the lucky children in your life.

Your life on the Art Farm is truly charmed.
