<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Fragile is probably an understatement for this ancient silk square!

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I also took out this old bridal headpiece to use, that I bought with some others from America a few years ago. This one, I believe, has never been worn - it still has its original label. The glue has rotted the net lace over time and it has become incredibly delicate and brittle. I thought I could take small sections of it to use on my doll. (How appropriate that an unworn bridal headpiece be used for Miss Havisham! :) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">OK, so this is a bit of a long shot, and I wouldn't normally use my blog in this way, but I thought it might be worth a try before I list on Gumtree...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">To anyone living nearby, or who is willing to travel, I am looking to sell my beloved handmade bauble wreath.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Update: Thank you I am sold! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It took a long time to make and has been a part of our family Christmases for several years now - You may have seen it featured <a href="http://nostalgiaatthestonehouse.blogspot.co.uk/2009/12/christmas-is-coming.html">repeatedly on my blog</a> around the festive season each year!</span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It would be impossible to post it safely, so I'm looking for someone to come and collect it. Every year it comes out of our attic for Christmas - it's been added to and repaired a few times over the years - I used mostly original vintage glass baubles to make it and occasionally one or two have smashed - I just replace them with more from my collection of old baubles and it looks as good as new again. It's a whopping 60cm (24" approx) in diameter.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I'd happily accept £30.00 for it (a bargain compared to many I've seen for sale in the US at around the $300 mark)...</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">And as a bonus, I would include my smaller Jack Frost wreath that I made around the same time, as a freebie. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Last week, I tuned-in to as much TV c</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">overage </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show that I could. I caught most of an interview between the presenter and a GP about the possible </span><a href="https://www.rhs.org.uk/science/science-blogs/science/november-2014/should-gardening-be-available-on-the-nhs" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">benefits of gardening to patients</a><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">, particularly those suffering with depression, stress disorders and those requiring cancer rehabilitation. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I feel very lucky to have a garden myself and have found in the past, when I've been feeling out of sorts, that it has provided me with the escape I've needed from stress or worries. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Quite apart from the physical work and the benefits of exercise that gardening provides, who wouldn't feel cheered by the rewards of growing beautiful plants and flowers? (or fruit and veggies?)</span></div>
