a special greek island package...

...ok there are brown paper packages tied up with string...
...on my creatively chaotic sewing table...
{...ok...yeah yeah...amongst the piles of fabric, ribbons, teacups & magazine inspiration!...}

...i wish i had brought back greek island linen for all who have left, & still leave me lovely messages..
...& comments & thoughts...


...let's just blame that on the lovely ol' hubby shall we...
...he said one special parcel...& only one...

...so one it is...
&
...this gorgeous little bundle of ionian sea lovliness is going to be winging its way south...
...back to my island as it happens...
...to the gorgeously lovely...

from
Rubies Place

...not that i've had the delightful luck of dropping by *yours* for a pot of tea, Tina...
but
...i can imagine the cushion on your front balcony & the greek cloth on your sideboard...
...enjoy my friend...


...want to see some seriously gorgeous italian goodies in an old stone greek farm house with me tomorrow...
...what is it about italian style & greek island simplicity that creates heaven...
...perhaps it's not for everyone...
...but for those of us that love our vintage with a good dose of style...
...& a link to the ocean it is nothing short of...
perfect!


thanks for welcoming me back after the sunning ourselves hiatus

  3. Eeep!! Oh Melissa, I can't tell you how excited I am to have won your beautiful giveaway!! I am speechless and soooo happy - THANK YOU so much sweet girl!!! I love linens and these will always hold a special place in our home. When you do come back this way, you MUST drop in for that cup of tea (or dinner!!) and then you can see your gorgeous gift in our cottage in the country:) Thank you so much again Melissa, this has made my day! I am so happy to see you back as I have really missed you the last couple of weeks:) Enjoy your weekend and I can't wait to see your next post, I am so envious:) Hugs to you my lovely friend ~ Tina xx

  4. I can feel the warm coming from that sun tan from here! (she says as she shields her lily-pale wintry skin against the glare). Most excellent that the hols were most excellent. Tina is one lucky chook!

  5. All that beautiful lace! And the stonework. Wow. Someday I'm going to Greece. Just so I can make that hanky swag you made.
    And I didn't win, but I feel like I did because you're back!
