A gift

This lovely wreath was made by a friend. I was so thrilled when she arrived with it recently, and gave it to me as a gift.
It's made with greenery from her garden, so many different shades of green, such pretty variegated leaves.
I sid that she should do this professionally but she laughed and said 'Just for friends'.

Hello Elizabeth,

How wonderful it is when friends arrive having made something special. The wreath is beautiful and has obviously been made with care. It is especially nice that the wreath contains foliage from your friend's garden. This makes it a particularly personal gift made with love for you to enjoy.

Wow, what a gorgeous wreath — the way she put it together and the colours she chose are just perfect. She really has a talent for this. And the fact that she made it for you as a friendship gesture makes it even more special. It’s practically gold when something is given like that, isn’t it?
