I bet you get mail all the time from the Netherlands...
Me neither,
but I was expecting this package as I was the surprised & happy
winner of a contest over here.
Well, it turns out the package, which I was so fortunate to win,
was delieved to the wrong mailbox by a Substitute Mailman.
The Substitute Mailman,
unfamiliar with the quirky ways of our neighborhood,
put my winning package in the mailbox
of the lady down the street
who was world*traveling but finally, finally
the sweet package made its way to me...
I have enjoyed Jane's website, all the luck in the world,
for the longest time and she never even knew me,
which is the way sometimes in the big blogging world.
Sometimes we crush on artists who live way far, far away
but then Life has a way of pulling people together
sometimes if we are fortunate
which happens to me with appreciated regularity!
{{ I do hope this happens to you sometimes
where you are lucky enough
to connect with your art*crushes... }}
When I think of recycled vintage design,
which is often as I frequently attempt to repurpose old things,
I think of Jane
and her arty, inspirational ways
and it makes me smile HUGE.
I never dreamed Jane would one day be sending me little birds,
somepinkflowers and happiness, too!
Thank you so much for your sharing style, dear Jane!
I could not be more pleased!
Clearly, clearly
there is enough luck in the world to go around to us all...
Thank goodness!

this week I found a small, flat package,
a little Postcard from Paradise,
waiting, waiting in my old mailbox
an unexpected gift from across the sea
where Life may seem so much different
but where others Love
little birds & somepinkflowers
just like me
here in florida
{{ i love when that happens }}
~~~~~~~























so sweet. If anyone deserves all the luck in the world it would be you SPF(one of my artist crushes)xx

Don't you just love the little suprise packages from kindred bloggers wherever they may live. So much fun to receive.
In your case it might be luck, but probably just good karma returning to you.
Have a good day Pink Flowers!
