England Enchantments

I recently took a bittersweet trip to England. We were in mourning and spending time with family.

The last full day we were there, we went to the coast. My mother noticed the town, Whitby, had many Dracula references, so as I was browsing an antique shop to purchase an antique poison bottle, she asked the shop keeper about it. He explained that author Bram Stoker, inspired by his visit to the town, wrote the story of Dracula. Some tourists look for Dracula's grave near the Abby, not realizing that Vampires don't exist..



It was our day to find little treasures among the shop items. That is where I discovered Wrendale Designs and had to get a card. The shop had beautiful mohair and I regret not getting some, even though I am not a crocheter or knitter.

After eagerly showing my mother, I bought two cards. One for my boyfriend and one for myself.







This is the one I chose for myself because it is adorably cute. I got my boyfriend a Ram.

Here are some other cute ones!
