Carol had also made this stunning collage herself and it featured old fashioned roses and nostalgic images. I shall hang this above my dressing table, as I love it's romantic look.
There were three German Interior magazines. I am looking forward to settling down this evening to look through them for inspiration. I think there will be some fantastic Christmas ideas in them.
Carol had also kindly included some Victorian garden magazine images, some Cath Kidston rose printed paper napkins and a rose scented sachet that had infused the whole parcel!
Thank you so very much Carol, your kindness and care is very much appreciated. I LOVE everything!
Your roses may have faded in the garden Niki, but you appear to have enough here to see you through until spring !!
ReplyDeleteoh, you got such lovely things in the mail! I love those roses too. :) And the vintage frames looks so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh Niki you took such beautiful pictures of the collage and the other rose swaps things and I'm so glad that you like everything! It was a real pleasure to swap with you!:D
ReplyDeleteHow nice to receive such a thoughtful package. I have never done a swap before but it sounds like so much fun.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! interesting too, to have magazines from Germany, I love to see how similar, or not, things are in different countries.

It’s all lovely and only wish I could be in England to find all these gorgeous treasures from the past. Thanks for sharing your vintage hunts, Niki.

ReplyDeleteI have rarely seen so many flowers in one sitting ... and I love every one of them. What a beautiful blog ... and Bath (I think that is where you live) is one of my favorite cities in the world.
