Spring(Winter) Cleaning.

After a Week of being chained to my bed I am Finally up & About again - && What better way to celebrate than with a big Sprinter (Spring/Winter) Clean :) I thought I'd share with you - While it is free of papery mess! - a Few of my Favourite things around my room..

Oh && If you haven't yet - join "Papered Thought's" new Facebook Page!

Lauren Carney is by far one of my Favourite Artists - I Bought a set of her beautiful postcards (Mini Prints) at the "Finders Keepers" Market last December.. I finally found a place to display them :) I Whipped up a Paint Chip Garland - Found some itty bitty pegs & Strung it all up - Pretty hey!

A Sore Foot & A Surprise Package.

Positive = I have lots of time to Write some lovely letters & catch up on my TV Shows.
Negative = Sprained Ligaments in the ankle hurt like a B%$#* :)

Yes unfortunately After falling down some stairs at work I am on crutches/bed bound for the next week at least - Lots of Icebuckets, Elevation & Rest for me! (Don't you think my Compression Bandage looks pretty all washi-ed up - Courtesy of Mumma Bear)  :)




On A brighter note How Happy was I when the delivery man pulled up to my house and pulled out not one but 5 Packages - all for me! - It turns out I won the "Shop For Kids" Summer Competition && Inside was one of These doll houses by Swedish company "Lundby" ++ All the bits & Pieces to go along with it worth $900 - kinda made my day :)



Last Week I went a purchased a super cute mini glass vase from the ever adorable Little Paper Lane - On the drive home I had a brain wave & Shut myself in my room for an hour to create these adorable Washi Tape Twigs - They fit just perfectly in my new vases (&& They show off my lovely washi tape!)







Only 2 Letters so far this week from Two of the loveliest girls you'll ever meet!
