It all started when I saw this lovely button tag on a blog
while simple - It was so vintage and spoke to my heart .
There were many other sweet things in that blog and i e-mailed
my special friend to inquire about the tag and other goodies
and as to whether it could be purchased from the sender .
to make a long story short -- This precious person sent me
a packet containing a lot of wonderful goodies some seen below .
Thereby my small gold treasure box was born -- for they were
a treasure -- out of her heart she sent me the sweetest packet of time
worn and created treasures -- a heart filled with love , glad to share
with no thought of money or recompense -- I was astounded -
and it so made my heart smile -- for out of her joy of creating and sharing
and her humble heart she sent it . So I found a box - had to be gold --
for she has a heart of gold -- and see just a few of the treasures
hidden laces and ribbons and altered tags



A kind heart so generous -- THANK YOU VIKKI !
a treasure box from me is on its way -- Hope it delights you as
your gift freely given has given me delight .

Somehow this is now side ways -- too crazy
This is from Bellatoria by MS Teresa --It is my fav . angel statue
Now truly crowned for spring -- Hmm well second thought --
I think my fav may be a reading Angel -- I bought in Charleston several years ago
One day i need to do an angel post of my collection .


Ok this sideways --pic -yikes -- Is another Bellatoria
creation by me -- with a graphic from the fabulous -
" Sandra Evertson " -- i do love and have all her books .
OK-- time to go to therapy for my shoulder - arrgh !
I am certainly not used to being out of commission ,
God is certainly teaching me patience . Really I
should never complain . on a scale of 1-10 , it is
a gnat bite not even near the chart, compared to what some friends on
my team at church are going through. I am truly
blessed and pray for them daily , for their healing
and peace though all their treatments
