One of my favorite blogs is
Indulge Your Shelf. Laurie always posts photos of great stuff she finds at flea markets and thrift stores, like vintage linens, buttons, and other brick-a-brac (love that word!).
She is quite creative and always seems to be fabricating delightful things with her treasures. One day a week or two ago, she made some cute tags and showed them off to her "indulgent friends" (i e, followers).
I thought they were so fun, so I complimented her on them and to my utter surprise, she offered to send me one! I was allowed to pick which I wanted and it was hard to choose.
A week later, it came and I was so excited to see it. I hung it right by my desk on the neck of a lamp.
What a treat! Blog friends are so inspiring.
