MY LIFE IN LISTS: 10 days of December

What I did and didn't do:



I also didn't:
- bring my camera to one Christmas party (the food was tooooooooooo good not to take photos from, but alas)
- bring my memory card to the other Christmas party, so that I couldn't take photo's here either.

Silly me.

I had a great time, I hope you all did too!

I whish you a rather late Happy Holidays!

Hello dear friends!
I hope you all had a lovely winter weekend!
To celebrate the end of the year I thought it appropriate to do a little sale in my etsy shop. I put all my ribbon tied bracelets on sale (-25%).
I am working on an exciting new collection for 2009 and so need some room for now things in the shop.
My ribbon bracelets will from now on only be available from www.hannahzakari.co.uk and from www.tortillagirl.com

Have a lovely monday!!!
