MT Tape is a fantastic Japanese decorative tape made from "Washi" (rice) paper. People are going crazy for it in Japan and I've managed to bring some back to Blighty to feed my addiction.

Check-out this link for ideas on how to use it - http://www.masking-tape.jp and click on "mt Gallery". They come in packs of two and measure 15mm wide and 15m long. Choose from Pink/Green stripe duo or Red/Grey pattern duo. £5.50 per pack of two.

I adore these Porcelain Keys - they seem to work for so many occasions for giving - wedding/engagement, good luck, birthday, moving home or just look lovely hanging in a perfect place or as a necklace (very carefully as they are delicate), on a chain or ribbon, a la Tiffany but at a fraction of the price! I randomly pick one from the 5 styles and they each come on a length of ribbon - vintage, new, lace or whatever I have that looks great and if you order more than one I will make sure you receive different styles on different ribbons. I've recently had a few requests to use these beauties as wedding favours and bridesmaids gifts as well as giveaways to conference attendees! Just email me for more information on this new service.
