Maybe y’all aren’t sick of hearing about New Zealand, but I’m sick of posting about it! I just wanted to show you some of the gorgeous things I brought back. First, some ceramics. I loved the colors in this little dish and the red inside of these mugs is extremely vibrant and happened to match. I bought these in a lovely little ceramics shop in Nelson.
Between the 50 million sheep and my knitting habit, y’all KNOW I bought some yarn. I’ll put notes of what each one is in Flickr, so click the picture to go see. I have a lot of knitting to do!
And finally, a gorgeous bowl made from Rimu (native NZ wood) that I bought from Yvonne and her husband in Palmerston North. Their business is called Pascal Woodturning, and if you ever go to that area, be sure to give them a call. The craftsmanship is flawless. The utensils are also handcrafted, mom bought them for me at the Nelson market. And THAT’S IT for New Zealand posts. If you ever want to see them all at once, just check out the Travel category. Thanks for reading!
