You may know I don't give out feint praise, as a rule; not even just for the sake of saying something nice. I am not good at pretense - never have been, (and most likely) never will be. I am not a 'gusher.' My parents did not instill that quality (talent?) in me at any age, and so while I can see and hear and believe it when I observe it from others, I cannot summon the beauty-queen falseness which seems to live comfortably in so many people, and blurt out things others want to hear, just for the sake of fawning and oohing and awing.
I'm prefacing this post with good reason, so please allow me to explain... and gush a little. I suppose I will get better with practice.
Periodically I give myself permission to spend a little money on a little something for an upcoming project (or, for an ongoing project. REALLY? Do I need a project as an excuse? Harrumph). My pockets are not deep, and saving capital to use for delightful reasons is a bit of a stretch, so when I let go and splurge on a bauble, button, beads, or bit of hankie happiness, well, I feel I've earned it.
At any rate, I had an occasion recently to buy a lovely hankie or two from Julie at
https://www.etsy.com/shop/JDCottageTreasures?ref=shop_name_search_sugg
and it was one of the smartest decisions I have ever made (when it comes to online purchasing). Julie is more than attentive, and far better than anyone else I've encountered at providing that 'extra mile' when it comes to customer service. Fast, friendly, clean, and fabulous - you can't go wrong when you buy from Julie at JD Cottage Treasures. Her items are topnotch and excellently described.
Please, just save some lovely things for me. Cheers to you, Julie! Thank you for everything ~
