Recent Misi Purchases

My mum and dad usually go away around this time of year for about three months travelling through Europe and last year I was completely unorganized (me!!!) and forgot to buy my mum's birthday and mother's day cards and presents in advance. This year I was a little more organized and as I'm 40 (arghh!!!) this year and they won't be here for my birthday, yesterday they took me, my sister (whose birthday it is today) and my nan out for lunch at Prezzo's. We only really organized this last week and I have spent my time since browsing the wonderful shops on Misi trying to find the perfect gifts. I found lots of lovely gifts but they all seemed to be for me and not anyone who I was supposed to be buying for.

So on Saturday I finally decided that I would buy this vibrant polo mint king ring from
Just K Jewellery for my sister who loves horses and always keeps a packet of polo mints in her pocket as treats for them.
On Sunday came a Mother's Day present for my mum (obviously!) I had been searching all weekend for a bookmark and couldn't find the right one. I finally came across this beautiful one from forgetmenotgifts. The photograph doesn't do this bookmark justice as the heart is all sparkly. Now my mum's presents can't be too big or bulky as my dad has become obsessed with the weight and packing of their campervan. (he only takes three pairs of trousers with him - one for each month I think!!)

Last but by no means least I found this amazingly soft corsage by Maisielu
for my mum's birthday gift. Amanda from Maisielu is incredibly talented and makes jewellery as well as lots of other beautiful things.

Now all three of these lovely Misi sellers deserve a big thank you as I sent them all an email over the weekend saying please can you send me my purchases asap as I need them by Tuesday - and they all arrived in time, so thank you Karen, Bryan and Amanda.

I received some early 40th birthday presents too yesterday and will post about them tomorrow.....
