on my desk...

So technically, this is not on my desk (it's on my dining table) BUT I could not pass up this chance to share these gorgeous things. I have the sweetest friends in the world. Here are a couple of presents I received for my birthday that I LOVED. At the top is a Nancybird clutch with blue screenprinted bird detail. I had been admiring this for a while and someone sneaky had a very good memory. Underneath it is a crochet neck scarf with an extra special 'teatime' teacup brooch - both made especially for me!!! After I received it this morning I couldn't take it off. It is so snuggly warm. A fellow Brown Owl is so talented... all she needs now is an E-Teacup blog!

this is... my knick knack/jewellery box

I'm a couple of days late with this one but seeing as though I love my accessories I couldn't miss out. Now normally my jewellery box is much messier than this, but this was a great excuse for a little bit of a clean up. I seem to be having a bit of a butterfly/dragonfly theme with my trinket boxes but this is all coincidental as they have all been pressies from those near and dear. Some of my fave items you may be able to spot are: Polli earrings, Love birdhouse necklace, Matroyshka brooch (pressie) and one of my latest purchases, gorgeous teacup earrings from Etsy!
