Treasures From A Very Dear Friend...

Treasures from Miss Mary

Let me first share how I met Mary
Mary and I both joined the same collectors club

I complimented Mary's lovely jewelry collection

(Mary makes and repairs jewelry

She even makes pieces using vintage beads)

Mary complimented my depression glass collection

We eventually began emailing on a regular basis

I've made lots of wonderful friends there

Although My Dear Friend Mary and I are each from different coasts east/west we still bonded

I was so happy this morning when the postman came to my home
carrying a package filled with so many wonderful treasures from my dear sweet friend Mary

Her package arrived with "perfect pick me up timing"

(I was an hour into dealing with technical support for my laptop)

It's so refreshing to know true kindness still exists

I was so thrilled opening and sifting through all the lovely treasures Miss Mary had packaged so nicely

First thing my hand reached in and found was a book

Yay, a depression glass book!!

And its signed by the Author

I was so thrilled!

Best of all were the little handwritten notes throughout the book

It felt like Mary was here browsing the pages with me and pointing out her favorites.
How great is that? !

I reached back in and pulled out a bright and cheerful orange bag

inside was a very lovely necklace with a bird on the charm

 Mary and I are both bird lovers
This beauty has Flourite gemstones
(Known to have amazing healing properties)

How very thoughtful of her

Then I found a cute letter

Which I read and had alittle chuckle

Then I continued onwards through the treasure box

One lovely item after another made its way into my hand

and out of the box

Darling depression glass footed sherbet dish

Pink Royal Lace by Hazel Atlas Glass Company

1934-1941

Yes, I did look it up in the fantastic book Mary sent

A very lovely crystal and silver candlestick holder... love it!

This beauty will be in my dinning room with the Antique China

A silver dish with lemon scented vegetable soap

wrapped together with a pretty pink bow

And... yes,  you guessed it PYREX

Yay A Lovely yellow fridgie *with lid*

Bright and shinny & No Chips

SO, very happy <smile>

It is such a fantastic feeling when you meet someone who appreciates your friendship and treats you with kindness

Thank you so much Miss Mary,
For all the wonderful favorites you gifted to me

I love them and you my sweet friend

It's truly inspiring how so many of us collectors

take time out of our day to day lives to show one another

we are thinking of them and we care

by gifting goodies

How special that is
I'm very grateful to have a shared interest

bring such special people into my life

So glad you have stopped by

I love to read comments from folks visiting me in blogland.

I look forward to new ideas, suggestions, requests

and even any alterations you may have made to one of my recipe posts.

So please leave me a comment and I will buzz by your blog and do the same for you.

Come Back Soon

*&* Often

You're Welcome Anytime!

Aim ♥

 

        Have The Best Day Ever!
