Tied with string

Airmail letters, picture postcards and parcels wrapped up with string. I saw these recently in a magazine and really liked them, so for a pretty posted gift you can open every day these purses and bags are from online store totally funky.

Plumo

Arrived home to find my new Plumo catalogue waiting on the doormat. So many pretty things in here, all their clothes have that little extra detail be it stitching or cut, these clothes aren't cheap but they are good quality pieces to add to your wardrobe, mixing the dresses with cheeper knitwear or inexpensive shoes, like these canvas pumps from Toast.co.uk can make an outfit a little more economical! But if its not clothing or lovely jewellery you are after step right up and start poking around the living section where you will find the delicate glass jars (above) perfect for serving jam or butter and these gorgeous bird canvases.
Better get back to reality and the apple pie that needs cooking, hope you find something you like over at Plumo

Nothing says "I love you" like earache.

Well, I've been up since 2.30 with earache (the final leg of my cold) so I thought I'd make use of the time by seeking out my favorite valentine day offerings from the creative melting pot that is Etsy.
