Yesterday I received this lovely Spring parcel in the post....
from none other than Melody at The House on The Hill
there is a beautifully hand stitched felt table topper... one of Melody's fantastic pins, some seeds - basil and pansies (perfect for spring sewing) and chocolates.... (one flew right out of it's wrapping and into my tummy quicksmart)
so I put these straight onto my treasure table... which is what I am showing today for Treasure Tuesday...
This is a lovely hardwood table that used to live in my grandparents house
if I remember right it is made from yellow wood and black wood
native trees in south africa
(don't quote me on this information!!)
It is really lovely and smooth - the grain of the wood is tight and it is a piece I really really love having
I try and change the look every now and then so it is wondeful to have it decorated with some spring prettiness
Here is a closer picture so you can look at the handwork in this table topper...... I am just awed with this special gift - isn't is so happy?
Thank you Melody.... you are a Treasure yourself...
Hope you can pop by at Melody's and see some of her work and join us in Treasure Tuesday
