I received a surprise in the mail from Carmen of “Waxed Out Creative Life”. I had surprised her with a baby blanket that I made for her new grandson, Tyler…who was born on Saturday. So then she surprised me with a thank you gift…just wait until you see all the goodies that she sent.
The first thing that I saw when I opened up the box was this pretty card. Now I’m hunting for a frame to put it in…I just love this picture of the white watering can and lavender.
Next I see these amazing soaps that smell so yummy!! One is of Old Glory and the other has a goat on it. My sister loves the goat one and is trying to talk me into giving it to her…she wants to display it in an old wooden bowl in her bathroom. Since she has been helping me craft for my upcoming show, I’m thinking about letting her have it.
Carmen also gave me some primitive melting tarts and these smell very yummy too. They look like little tiny cinnamon buns. I have them sitting out on a little plate in my kitchen, because I don’t want to melt them…they are just too cute!!
Then there was this cute little package wrapped in cow print…
and when I opened it, I found the cutest animal soaps that she sent for my grandkids. The green one is a lion and the red one is an elephant. I can’t wait to give these to Josie and Peyton…they are going to love them.
It was so sweet of her to send me these…and I love everything!! (Thank you, Grandma Carmen and Congrats on your new bundle of joy…Tyler is beautiful!!)
I’ll be back in a few days to share some more goodies that I’m making for the Sauerkraut Festival that is now 6 weeks away. Until next time……. blessings, Cindy
