I knew Ria had made me something for Christmas - but I didn't know just how amazing my present would be! I love skulls and all things Mexican, so Ria made me this Mexican Day of the Dead style bag. Isn't it amazing? I LOVE this trim!
If you want to know more about how she made this beauty you can check out some more of the details on her blog here.

I am saving this for Christmas Day - it looks amazing.
If you want to learn more about how to make stollen, or see how Ria's kitchen exploded when she made this stollen, check out this post.Finally, Ria very generously bought me "Make!" by Cath Kidston - I have wanted this book FOREVER but I could just never bring myself to buy it, I have looked at it at book stores a lot though.
I just thought I'd share one of the projects in the book - they are all so pretty, I love the vintage style and all the pretty pictures.
