Precious Gifts

Here are a few of my very special things.
I especially love the framed everlasting 'bouquet of ribbon flowers' that my mum and dad made for my 4oth birthday. Dad salvaged the 'vase' which was an old clock frame and mum filled the timeless piece with some of my favourite colours and flowers. I have forgotten so many of the other gifts I have received throughout my life but the ones handmade with love always remain true and precious in my heart and memory.

  1. How true!

    Precious poems from my partner and a macaroni necklace made with much tender loving care by my son when he was in preschool are among my most treasured gifts. I wore that macaroni necklace like they were precious diamonds :]
