There was a happy mail day around here this week, my package from Amanda's summer blog swap arrived. It was filled with a beautiful crocheted tea towel, some lovely gift tags, lip balm, and tooth powder. There was also a little surprise in the package for Reece, an owl mask and a hand painted rock.
I am always amazed at the creative talents of others when I participate in these swaps, always so much goodness shared. Big thanks go out to Amanda for organizing us all again, and thank you to my new blog friend Alexa who sent this wonderful package.
Lovely mail. xo
ReplyDeleteIt totally made my day :)
DeleteWhat a wonderful way to spread love throughout the blogosphere!
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful handmade gifts too. xx
It is Chrisy. I have done quite a few blog swaps now, and they are so much fun, and introduce me to some new bloggers too.
DeleteThat's a huge perk to doing something like this - meeting so many other wonderful bloggers. So glad I met you! :)
ReplyDeleteRight back at you Alexa :)
Deletexo
Apologies if you're getting this comment more than once, my computer is doing funny things this morning! But what a lovely parcel. I especially like that painted rock. Does Reece ever paint rocks in his collection or are they all left natural?
ReplyDeleteOnly once Sally :) So far they have been left natural. He does beeswax them though. I will find him at his craft table, waxing away sometimes. It is pretty cute.
DeleteWhat a beautiful package! I have to agree with you, so many talented souls... :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat job Alexa!
Still anxiously waiting for mine. The anticipation is almost as fun!
The wait is the hardest part. Hope it gets there soon :)
DeleteNot yet... what a great way it would be to start the week on Monday, right??? Come OOOON mail! :-)
DeleteI will keep my fingers crossed for you :)
DeleteYes, great mail day. So many beautiful things!
ReplyDeleteI was a pretty happy lady :)
Deletewhat fun!
ReplyDeleteThey always are. I love blog swaps.
DeleteLove, love, love that owl mask!
ReplyDeleteIt is awesome Jodie, and Reece loves it!
DeleteWhat a fun idea:) so sweet the owl mask for Reece!
ReplyDeleteIt was very sweet of Alexa to think of Reece. He just loves the mask and the rock :)
DeleteHow sweet everything is Kim. These homemade blog swaps are of the highlights of my year, I love seeing all the talent that is in the world.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy a beautiful weekend.
Thank you Tracey, you too.
DeleteSo many lovely things!!
ReplyDeleteI know! Loved opening it all up :)
DeleteI love mail days like this. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteMe too!
Deletewow! what lovely gifts you received this time around :)
ReplyDeleteI know, I lucked out big time!
DeleteNeat! I will have to join a swap one of these days. It might be a while though since I literally threw my sewing machine out the window... Umm, that needs an explanation I think. It died and I just was following through on a promise that every frustrated crafter would like to do at some time or another. Oh well. The little painted rock is quite lovely. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI do think that needs an explanation :) Although I do get it.
DeleteYou should definitely join in next time, they are a lot of fun.
