Spring Flowers

The recent rain/hailstorms wrecked havoc in our garden, destroying all the pretty purple and white crocuses that I had wanted to take pictures of. I just managed to capture these two pretties before they were flattened...

Also, I thought it was pretty amusing to read the comments on my moss-covered fence (previous post). I didn't realize that most of you didn't mind and some of you actually love it! One commenter wrote it added character-- I like that :)

Thanks for visiting today, and I hope your week is filled with sunshine and happiness!

Messenger bag for men

Well, actually it's unisex. I designed this bag for my men's line as mentioned in a previous post. It's made from soft-touch canvas in dark grey with black trims and is fully lined. Measuring about 14 x 12 inches it is spacious without appearing too bulky. A4 size notebooks fit in easily with lots of room to spare. There's a large interior compartment as well as a couple of pen-holders - also handy as a 'hook' for sunglasses. The front panel has a stylish zip pocket and there's an exterior pocket on one of the side panels for keeping a mobile phone, packet of tissues etc. The strap is adjustable. I was aiming for simple yet functional and stylish - what do you think?

p.s. Thanks to hubby for taking time out to model this bag :) And please ignore the moss-covered fence. See, that's what happens when in rains non-stop. Definitely need to scrub that down asap!

Cute Kitty Necklace

The package from my blog buddy Sharla @ Beaded Tail that I've been waiting for arrived yesterday! Yay! I couldn't wait to open it.

Look at this cute packaging and adorable card
-Sammy thought there was a snack inside for him ;-)




...instead, this gorgeous kitty necklace pour moi

I really love Beaded Tail's Etsy shop for animal (and jewelry) lovers and couldn't resist buying this unique necklace. I adore it! Beaded Tail donates the proceeds to animal charities. Isn't that great? Makes wearing the necklace that much more special :)

There was a surprise in the package from Sammy's furiends Angel & Isabella too!
Here's Sammy inspecting the little ladybug and bean-thingy...

"love, love, love" !!!

Sammy says: Thank you, Angel and Isabella for being so thoughtful. I love my new cat toys!

Wishing everyone a great day,
