Oh thank you for providing this link Alison. I would not find these gorgeous treasures without you. Have the coffee one picked out for my Mum and the shoe one for my sister-in-law. Had to go to the city yesterday and heard 'I Will Survive' blasting on the radio and could not help but think of you. Hope you have had a good week.
