a gift

 I can't believe it's Friday already.
Do I say that every week?

I needed a gift for one sweet baby girl. I started with a fun box that caught my eye. I like presenting gifts in an interesting basket, tote, or box. 
 The colors aren't what I usually go for, but I'm always willing to make an exception.
 Then the fun begins...loading it up with coordinating goods.
 The ric-rac patterned chenille blanket, flannel receiving blankets, and crib sheet are from Amy Coe. 
 I always love to add a book. This Gyo Fujikawa's Baby Animals pushes a lot of my buttons. A sweet, vintage reprint with darling illustrations, and it matches the box? Yes.
 I also added a sweet polka dotted outfit with a little matching beanie hat, because I can't resist polka dots or matching hats. 

Have the loveliest of weekends.

If you have a moment stop by I Love Pretty Little Things for more pretties.
