A Sweet Gift and a Sweet Concert

August 9, 2009 at 10:22 am by Claudia


The Saturday mail brought this little package from Amy. I won her giveaway last week. If you are unfamiliar with her blog, you must visit her! Besides being enormously talented, she is a wonderful person. She inspires me on a daily basis.

Shall we open it?

Isn’t this the cutest packaging? Do you see that sweet red button on the box? I love little touches like that.
Inside was this sweet little wreath Amy made! Isn’t it lovely? I love it!
It says “We shall not know unless we begin.”

Amy, thank you! This will be given a place of honor in my studio.

Last night, Don played a concert for the locals at our favorite restaurant. He was amazing, if I do say so myself. I had the best time. I think everyone else did, too.

Have a great Sunday.

    That’s so pretty, Claudia!! How sweet, and I love that quote!

    And who needs Paul when you’ve got Don, right? (I remember you saying in a previous post that once upon a time you wanted to marry Paul!) Sounds like you had a wonderful time!!! So happy for you!… Donna

    That wreath is so adorable! I have a little sugarville house I bought from Amy, and I love it! I’m a huge fan of her blog. Her blog was the very first blog I read– ever! I’ve been inspired by her ever since!

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
