I'm continuing with the theme of fantasy creatures for my Folksy Friday. As always, click on the pics to visit these beauties in their shops.

Look what I won!

The majority of my lovely readers probably know Natalie of NOfkants curios. (If you don't then pop along to her blog and folksy shop for fantastic knitted bags, gemstones, fossils and other fabulous bits and pieces.) Natalie is, quite frankly, amazing. She's a Mum and works and crafts and organises us folksy people into listing every day. She also keeps track of all our listings and encourages us and is constantly happy dancing when any of us get a sale. Not only that but she has great blog giveaways too.

I recently entered her gemstone giveaway and thanks to her son's ingenious method of selecting a winner, I won!! Such a lovely surprise. I was catching up with my blog reading and saw that little piece of paper with my name on it- made me a very happy bunny. Natalie gave me the choice of any of her gemstone keyrings in her shop. I love all gemstones and it was a tricky decision. Look at some of these beauties.



In the end I chose this stunning labradorite heart charm. It came beautifully wrapped and it even more wonderful in real life than any camera or computer screen can capture. I have decided to take the heart of the key chain and make it into a pendant though as I'll get much more wear out of it and can show it off!




Thank you soooooooooooooooooo much Natalie. Not only for the gorgeous labradorite heart, but for being generally wonderful and supportive and amazing. Super woman in disguise.
