Thursday marks one year to the day that I nervously wrote my first blog post for this humble space ( I then hurriedly wrote 3 more). Time has moved quickly and the journey has been fun - as a means of boring you further, i'll write all about that tomorrow.
But firstly, thank you for tolerating my intense narcissism (yesterday was a prime example) over the past twelve months!! To celebrate your selflessness, I thought I'd throw a little party... you know.. like... for myself?!
No, not really- IT'S FOR YOU!!!
Yes, a party for YOU!
Naturally, there will be champagne and presents. All you need to do is pour yourself a goblet of bubbly and let me take care of the rest!
Each day for the next week or so you will see a giveaway from some wonderful friends and designers. We have stacks of fun stuff and I can't wait to sling it all over this big, wide world.
Hold on tight.
see you tomorrow
xo
p.s for those of you who don't like giveaways, please hang in there with me. I really wanted to show my gratitude and this is the best, most practical way I knew how. Sorry if it's annoying!
Happy Birthday, lovely little blog!
