How I love a pretty parcel. A good present is all in the wrapping, don't you think? This may be the reason I have a box full of ribbons and spend just as long choosing pretty things to decorate a gift as I do choosing the present itself.

The first is a little something from B. A new pot of my favourite Cath Kidston bluebell hand cream, all wrapped up a treat. And received just as the pot my Mum gave me for Christmas ran out. Oh, what a husband.

The second, a yummy looking pompom garland that was sent on Friday and which I'm hoping will arrive in Germany before a certain lady heads off Down Under. Jammy so-n-so.

ps. It wasn't until I hit Publish Post that I realised how beautifully matching these parcels were. How very coordinated of me.
