M & Co

I'm back, and a free summer gift for you !

I'm back :-) Originally I planned for a longer holiday away, going straight from Sicily to our mountain cabin...but with the weather overe here, I'd rather continue my holiday at home, with you!! ;-)

I'm so grateful to Diana at Please Sir blog  who wrote this fabulous guest post here while I was gone! She's the definitly the Queen of Vintage! I adorede her vintage finds, and especially how she styled her photos! Guest blogging on Typepad turned out quite a challenge as its obviously not ment for the non typepad crowd with the difficulty my friends had to get their guest account working :-) Next time I'm having guest bloggers I'll try to figure out a better way to do this ;-) I wish Typepad would consider making this easier not only for bloggers already having a Typepad account, but also for every blogger out there no matter what platform they use :-) Anyway, guest blogging is great fun, strengthens the community and brings a fresh perspective to your blog, so I'm definitly going to ask my friends for this kind favour again :-)

Before I went on holiday I made you a little summer gift! This is the time of year to make homemadeconserve , so I made you some labels to match your homemade goodies. Get them by clicking here

Seed packet template for you :-)

Since you are so kind to visit me, even though my updates has been less than frequent lately, I have a little gift for you ;-) I've been playing around, trying to learn Inkscape, and made a seed packet for you to download, and print out on paper. I always collect seeds from my garden in the Autumn, and when spring arrives I give them away to friends and family. Cute as gift adornments too! (PS! If you haven't collected any seeds you can always cheat, and get them from your local garden center ;-))

I write the name, and year collected on the seed packet, and if the receiver is not familiar with the seed I also print out a small description on how to plant and slip inside.

I will be back visiting your lovely blogs, and posting more frequently here again when work has calmed down, until then I'll  still try posting at least twice a week here ;-)
