A very special purchase ...

It's been a long time since my last post (too long to remember actually), well, summer passed and the kids are back at school and finally I shall be able to catch up on some much needed blogging. In the coming days I also want to share with you more posts of special events from the summer, like: meeting the EST girls, our summer holiday through europe, my etsyversary and also my current packing up of the house and moving back to NZ (which btw is 5 weeks tomorrow .. and counting) ..
But first, a beautiful package arrived in the mail today. I first came across TanyaMac in the Europeanstreetteam on etsy around about a year ago. Recently I spied some gorgeous new listings in her shop that really made me JUMP! So, I convo'd her and asked her if she could do a little custom order for me .. and here's what she made. I shall be taking these treasures with me back to New Zealand to adorn our new home there. A set for 'autumn' and a set for 'summer' but I think they are so beautiful they'll be adorning my home throughout the entire year. What do you reckon?

Yoni glasses

Today the post van drove up and delivered a box I had been waiting for .. with supplies I had purchased recently in Holland :) I had actually forgotten that I had purchased some 'Yoni' glasses whilst sipping a coffee in a café in Holland ....

~YONI~ glasses .. for coffee .. oh, of course they could be for tea too!

Yoni of course has another meaning .. click here to see what else it means (other than a super cool way to drink that hot cuppa without burning your fingers on the glass because it is double glassed so it keeps your beverage hot while keeping your fingers cool) ...

some may find it strange to drink from something shaped like a 'you know what' and well I suppose it is .. still, they are pretty jolly cool if you ask me!
