I'm always so lucky with the magical parcels I find in my mailbox.
The one I'm posting today is from the lovely duo who blog over at The cat you and us
(who I'm sure, you know I love so much!).
(who I'm sure, you know I love so much!).
It was honestly filled to the brim with the most amazing things!
Stickers and postcards and temporary tattoos!!!
And the two most amazing prints, Dani and Damaris are super awesome photographers and I always admire their photos the take. The black and white one even included one of all my all time favourite quotes "trust your struggle" which I've proudly got hanging on my wall as a lovely reminder :)
Eep!
I honestly still get giddy seeing all the goodies
Even the envelope was amazingly decorated (love Gemma Correll and her illustrations)
Another magical thing were these matchstick flowers
I've since started growing one
It was looking super promising with a cute little green sprout but before I could take an update photo and show off how well my little dude was growing his health took a tragic turn for the worst. I'm not sure what happened but I think perhaps he got too much sun one day? I've been meaning to start over but I'm so scared and not knowing why he died makes it even worse.
Anyone have any experience growing sweet alyssum? I had him on my window sill which receives quite a bit of light and I was giving him a good squirt of my water bottle everyday and keeping him moist.I'm going to go with over exposure to sun and make sure the next one is a little back from the window sill - it's not fun to kill things...wish me luck!
Tomorrow I've got more mail to show off as I'm posting a lovely letter I got from my pal Sara!

ReplyDeleteCan't give you any plant advice, the only things I can keep alive and growing are succulents;)
I'm not sure if gardening is hard or I'm just lacking knowledge that would make it easy! I loved the cat card too :)
