MORE cotton reels :)

Yeah, OK, I can't resist these Hero Arts cotton reels.
This card is a brighter cousin of THIS one... :)
Had my mum and dad here for the day today - so nice to sit in the garden and have lunch on my new patio. :)
Came up with some big projects for the house too - so exciting.
And mum gave me this:  
How awesome will it look wall mounted and filled with stamps and cotton reels??? Oh, and cleaned too :)
 (do you spy a peek of the patio?)
Hope you've had a good day.
P.S.  Check back later this week for a giveaway!!!

What a great piece to hang on your wall! I have a few, but much smaller scale - love them all the same, because they have a history. Thanks for sharing!

I LOVE your cotton reel cards. And that printer's tray is wonderful. I have a few of these (but smaller and from IKEA). I hope you take a photo of it filled with stamps to show us
