Someone asked me recently to let her know if I ever put anything
in my etsy shop that had a violet pattern on it. Well, I just
happened to come across a few pieces and thought I'd just
surprise her by mailing this sweet little soap dish to her.
I don't know her personally but we've had a little contact
online and I know her brother pretty well.
And fortunately, I even had her mailing address,
so that was easy!
This little vintage piece is hand painted and signed by the artist.
I thought it was beautiful!
Here it is all packed up and ready to go!
I hope it makes her day.
I mean, who doesn't like to get surprises in the mail?
I'm linking up with Manu for her RAK Challenge.

If my readers haven't given up on me, I doubt yours would give up on you. Ha.
DeleteSpotty posting at your sea
DeleteNo croaking came to be lol
You are so thoughtful and the soap dish is very pretty. Someone is going to be pleasantly surprised.
ReplyDeleteI hope so! I had a lot of fun sending it....but that's the way it goes, right?
DeleteIt's more of a blessing to give than to get. :)
I had a nice surprise in the mail recently. I was really thrilled with it, just what I wanted! So there are some kind thoughtful people around people around who think of others.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Was it for Valentine's Day?
DeleteI would like to think so, but I don't get that lucky. . . . .
DeleteWell, if it was chocolate and roses, I would think it was!
DeleteI don't know what happened there. I think my computer has developed a stutter!
ReplyDeleteyes, I saw that!

So pretty and delicate. She will adore it. A RAK coming by mail is super special.
ReplyDeleteI've been sick most of the week, so didn't get out to do my RAK.....but just when I was thinking about it...a RAK was done for me....so mine this week is in reverse....
And that's how it should be...you reap what you sow, right? Hope you feel better! Lots of bugs

ReplyDeleteAnd the scalloped, shell shape is very pretty. I love surprises and she will too!
It is a pretty little thing, isn't it?

ReplyDeleteI do hope she loves it!
DeleteHi Betsy - what a great idea and I'm sure she'll love it. I was given three hand-painted knapkins from the Victorian era, which I had framed, one has violets on .. and they are so delicate - I've always loved them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful act of Random Kindness .. I'm sure she'll love it ... Happy weekend - and cheers Hilary
What a great idea to frame them! I love that!
DeleteWho wouldn't love that.. very pretty.. and thoughtful.
ReplyDeleteI hope she did! :)
DeleteI rarely go back to posts, but I do sometimes wonder about my comments...so....love this RAK, I will never forget the joy I found in my Boston Terrier print. 💕
