Yep, it's my Burfday today! And I'm really young (in my head!). And is it really a lie about your age, if you don't feel your age? I think not. So, I'm choosing to be 29. Again. And someone said to me yesterday, "hmmm, I think this should be your last year to do that". The nerve!
And why am I showing you these pics? Cause, even though its MY birthday, I thought I would give YOU the prezzie.
And what's in this little peat cup? Lots o stuff.
Some lace, vintage paper doily, vintage silk threads and a fantastic pink vintage earring (I hear the pinks are the hardest to find...is that true?). Some vintage posies and buttons...to name a few.
But this is my favorite. Coffee dyed pink dotted swiss and crushed silk pink ribbon. The ribbon feels almost like paper. They are so pretty!
All wrapped up in a fun little cup.
And I think maybe I'll throw in a few other things as well, just for grins.
This was the "muddy pink" cup that I was going to sell on my Etsy...but I think, I stole the idea from Lynn, or maybe it was Deb, I'm not sure who actually (hey, that sounds like "old age" -forgetfulness - and that is soooo not me - the old age, not the forgetfulness). Anyway, I stole the idea to give something away for my birthday. So. Here ya go.
So, show me the Birthday LOVE (leave a comment on THIS post) and I'll have Sweet Hub pull a name outta the hat (or whatever bowl I can find) to pick a winner on Sunday evening. So, you have until Sunday noon to post.
Thanks y'all...I'm off to eat some cake!!!!

Hope you have a great birthday today! How cute is the cup of goodies.

If you say 29 I'll believe you...after all, I'm only 39!
I hope you had a wonderful day and that you didn't singe your eyelashes blowing out the candles.

Happy Birthday, my blogland friend! What a wonderful gesture, to give a present to someone else on your birthday. Please put my name in the hat, I would love to get my paws on that Swiss dot fabric!

how fun! i hope you are had a great day! 29 works for me! susan
Posted by: susan | March 12, 2010 at 11:51 AM
happy, happy birthday sweetie! had to laugh at being 29 again, now that my friends and I are all over 50 they tend to say 39. I personally have always thought it best to say I'm older than I am, that way people think I look really good for my age, better than walking away thinking I don't look too good for 39!

Happy Birthday to you
Hope you had the best birthday ever

Happy birthday to you! Why is it that we all like to say we're 29 again but there's NO WAY we'd actually like to go back there?!!!
I have decided to 'up' the age to 35... yeah, that sounds reasonable to me- now THAT one was a great year!
