Today Was Bliss

Today the weather had gotten cooler but I just knew something sweet was going to happen and lo and behold the mail arrived and yes she was there!!!! 
Just over a week ago I was a very lucky lady as I had won one of Meg Mitchel's fabulous art pillows in her giveaway! I was over the moon then but I can tell you nothing compared to how I felt when I saw this wonderful little pillow! It is just beautiful. The attention to detail, the beautiful colors, I mean I had always admired Meg's work but when you see it in person it is so much more.
The amount of work Meg puts into her art is inspiring, not just the front but the back has a wonderful saying!
(It is so me)
Now I just have to decide where she is going to be sitting. I think I like her right near my desk on the shelf I have some family photos on. She looks really pretty there!


Thanks again Meg, she is so lovely and the packaging was sweet also!
If you haven't had the chance to view Meg's wonderful artwork just drop in on her blog here:



You'll enjoy your visit!
