These three hand-crocheted Snowflakes came all the way from Australia by air. They were give-aways from from Geoff and Gill of Africanaussie They arrived on 27 December, past Christmas but still in time for the festive season stretching to the New Year.
These lovely snowflakes were well made and came in three colours; pristine white, old rose and orange. A greeting card of the Nativity scene also popped out of the envelope. I was thrilled to bits.
I first hanged them on my dried pussy willows but felt that they were overwhelmed by the other ornaments.
Oh wow... lucky day huh...such a nice christmas gift...another special decos for you...:)
ReplyDeleteI take this as an auspicious start to a new year - 2013 :D
Deletemy mother-in-law made me these snowflakes..all different....she has Alzheimers. now and cant crocet anymore
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your mum-in-law's predicament and a great loss of talent. Those snowflakes would be her lovely legacy to the family, besides many others.
DeleteMolto carine quelle presine stellate, ciao e buon anno!
