I got the nicest gift in the mail - from one of the nicest people in blogland, maybe in all the land.
Lili - from Fearless Nesting - thought of me when she saw this pine cone bowl and sent it to me.
All wrapped up in this fabulous lobster fabric, tied with white cording. I was thinking the lobster fabric would be great in a tote bag for shopping, and I have big plans for the cording too - involving lampshades and wooden tv tables - be watching for posts about that too. (much later)
I have a "few" pinecone dishes - they are one of my favorites (shhhh, don't tell the other dishes - they will be jealous) - you can see a few of them here. The new bowl is the perfect piece to go with the others.
Thank you Lili - I just love the big serving bowl, and it goes so well with my other pine cone dishes.
Stop over and visit Lili and Henri - you'll spend an enjoyable week going back through her fabulous blog - she decorates, creates, photographs and makes a wonderful blog.

What a wonderful dish...I had pinecone dishes at one time but had to give them up.....wish I had kept them because they would be yours right now.....
What a loving feeling you must have. Just goes to express what a kindhearted friend you are. :)
Aww... that was so neat of her to send you that. I remember your pinecone dishes as they are just like my Mom had. I am looking forward to see what projects you do with the rest of your gift!
I'm just so glad it made it there in one piece! Thanks for all your kind words Jo, you are just the sweetest. ~Lili
What a lovely dish - a lovely gift to receive.
What a sweet gift. It's good to "hear" from you again :0) (I know, I should have sent you an e-mail but I'm a horrible correspondent) I hope all is well with you :0)

Nothing better than sweet surprises like that! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the wrappings.
