Congratulations to both ladies and I am sure you will love your mug-rug as my friend Judy, who made them, is very talented as I have said before. I have emailed both winners and once I hear back from them with their addresses I will let Judy know and she will post them off so many thanks to Judy for being extremely generous and offering to do a giveaway for my readers.
Life is a little overwhelming at the moment with health issues in the family so it brightens my day when I walk around the garden (what is left of it) early in the morning as the cactus orchids are still flowering.
These are the latest ones to open up ....
...and this yellow one is always stunning but I can see a red one which should open up in a couple of days and, from memory, it is the most beautiful of them all. Hmmm, that sounds like a movie :-)
Thanks to everyone who entered into the draw for the giveaway and I hope you all have a wonderful and safe weekend.
congratulations to the winners
ReplyDeletea lovely gift
gorgeous flowers there too
thanx for sharing
Selina, I love the cactus orchids as they require no TLC and still bloom beautifully.
DeleteThank you ever so much, Chel and Judy! What a lovely surprise ... I feel very lucky indeed. I love the message on the mug rugs; it's one that I remind myself of often when I'm "having a word" with the soil at our place which can frustrate me at times with its lack of depth, shale and clay. That saying reminds me to work with what we have here and to feed that soil to keep on improving it.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful, Chel. I don't have any cactus orchids but my Mum does in her garden up north. I wonder if hers are in bloom too? MegXx
Meg, I did email you asking for your address but not sure if you got it. Could you email me at nannachel@gmail.com. Thanks heaps.
ReplyDeleteYay!! Congratulations Meg and Pauline!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nil, I feel so lucky.
DeleteHi Chel, Thank you so much to you and Judy, I don't have a mug rug and I love the words on it, and I can't remember the last time I actually won something. This has made my night. Your cactus flowers are just beautiful and so striking. I don't have any like that. I didn't receive your email either Chel, so I will send you one with my address. Best wishes, Pauline xx
ReplyDeleteYou will love your mug-rug, Pauline. Congratulations!
DeleteCongratulations to Meg and Pauline, what a great gift to win for yourself or for someone. Flowers are gorgeous Chel
ReplyDeleteYes the cactus orchids are quite stunning, Brigid. Thankfully they don't need any TLC.
DeleteI couldn't think of better winners, for Judy's handiwork. I can see both of those lovely ladies, using them. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope the health issues, get sorted soon. The garden is always a great place to retreat, for a boost. And such lovely cactus flowers you have too. What the plant lacks in colourful foliage, the flowers certainly make up for. :)
Chris, the cactus orchids certainly don't have impressive foliage. In fact they look half dead but still produce such stunning flowers. I spied a bright orange one this morning that I forgot we had and I am sure there is a deep purple one too....somewhere ;-)
