Patricia had done a giveaway recently for some note cards depicting a beautiful painting she had done of a cherry tree near her house, and the funny thing is, this painting had always been a favorite of mine ever since she had posted about it last spring. She had wondered if she should make note cards from the painting and I had enthusiastically said yes. Well, when I saw that she was having a giveaway with them, I had to enter, and to my absolute delight, I won! And as an extra treat...Patricia included a some lovely postcards depicting the Bethesda Fountain...another favorite!
Now for the "ovally" part of the story. The same day that I had entered the giveaway, Patricia visited 24C...the 'Oval Love' post...and left me a comment saying that she had a little oval something she wanted to send me...well, the very next day I won the note cards (which I couldn't believe) and when they arrived yesterday, with them in the package was this wonderful shiny silver 'oval' tray...it was such a fun surprise and it's also my first oval made of metal...I love it!
I immediately started wandering around the house trying to figure out where it's new home was going to be, and decided it was going to be either on my desk or in my dressing area...the dressing area won, and for now, it's going to hold my everyday jewelry which is usually just scattered all over the dresser top...so not only is it a pretty addition, but it's also a functional one as well...one that will hopefully help me to be a bit more tidy in the bling department! Thank you again Patricia...I'm overjoyed and touched at receiving these two very sweet tokens of blog love. This community is just one* big ol' hug* and I feel so blessed to be a part of it! ♥
