I travelled to Mum's on Friday and we went out for lunch to celebrate 'Mothers Day'. It has become a tradition to celebrate on another day as for the last few years one of us has had other committments on the day. We had a lovely time, ate too much, had garlic overload for days but really enjoyed each others company. I was even spoilt with a box of my favorite choccys and Mum loved the present I gave her. Just as I was about to leave Mum gave me another present! - this beautiful box she had made. She'd attended a workshop for 2 days recently. She has made the box itself and it's beautiful inlaid lid. She is pleased she has learnt the methods but is very disappointed in the finished product!! As a perfectionist it is not up to her standards!! I love it, cannot find any faults with it and accepted it happily to enjoy in my home.

It's beautiful!! and a lovely treasure from your Mum!
Thank you, for stopping by my blog today! The Rancher is still hobbling around and refusing to see a doctor. Tomorrow I will put my foot down and make an appointment for him.
The gifted box is extraordinary! I love the combination of fabric colors on it. How lucky she gave it to you!
That box is magnificent. And handmade gift is a gift made with love. What a beautiful gift it is.
Wow - lucky you. I think it is perfect too.
It's lovely!!
