I can't believe it has taken me ten days to get around to showing you what I received in my Celebration Swap package, in fact I was worried I had lost all the photo's I had taken as I hadn't realised how far back I would have to look! Jennifer ( The Prairie Girl ) and I have been friends ever since we 'met' two years ago and I was pretty sure I would love anything she chose to put in my package....I wasn't wrong, she knows me so well that everyone of her gifts was spot on!
- There was a gorgeous tote bag with lots of useful pockets, which is already full of all my work stuff and cheers me up every time I reach for a pencil.
- The soft grey yarn flower badge is now attatched to my tote, where it looks really lovely and picks up the colour of the button on the pocket.
- The beeswax candles smell wonderful and I can't imagine ever burning them....maybe if Jennifer and I meet sometime for real we can burn them on a celebration cake?
- The felted acorns are so sweet and quite funny too...you'll understand why tomorrow when I show you what I sent her!
- The vintage button and ric-rac are put away, waiting for the perfect project...I think I may have something in mind but you will have to wait till next year to find out what...
- The tea-wallet is so beautifully made and is travelling to work with me, where it is the perfect answer for break time tea...
Really, I loved every single thing she sent and will treasure all my celebration gifts...wow I LOVE snail mail! Things are looking good in the Flickr group too, please take a look at all the lovely swap items and if any of you who took part but don't have a Flickr account would like to add your photo's too, just drop me a line and I can do it for you. Back tomorrow, with my side of the swap, I'd love you to come back and tell me what you think!
Ps You can find me back at Habit today too...
