The Perfect Gift for the Perfect Host

Hmmm…brown envelope. Something unfortunate for Mr. Blandings?


Heavens, no. That would be unseemly.


It’s a little, no, quite big actually, package from pve design.

Perfection. A lovely host gift for our big city friend. I had no idea how much he loved the one with the mice – his screen saver for weeks, as I understand. These little jewels are especially for him.



I can’t wait to wrap them up and send them off. Our visits there are always special; it’s sometimes difficult to come up with just the thing to let him know how much we enjoy them. Fortunately for me, Patricia Van Essche has an extraordinarily talent; these are spot on. Lucky friend, lucky me.

  1. Yes, Patricia is great! She surprised me with all three views – they are so charming in person.

  2. How charming! What a perfect host’s gift. Patricia is amazing the way she can just whip out those sketches – she really has talent!

  3. Yes what an original idea for a host’s gift. You are a generous friend Patricia (Mrs. B) and PVE is amazing 🙂

  4. Ha ha! Loved your intro to this post. You will certainly be invited back with this gift.

  5. Brilliant – thanks, we’ll see if Mr. Blandings thinks it’s funny – he reads every day, but doesn’t get a preview!

  6. Patricia’s easy style is just so great. Anyone would be over the moon to get these. What a great gift, Mrs. Blandings. As a Graphic Artist, I know the joy a gift of a sketch or a painting can give. PVE’s drawings are to be coveted!
    Plus, may I say, your friend has the BEST house…love the offset entrance.

  7. He is the best. Even my husband and I fight over him a bit. I do think he will cherish these.
