Good Mail From Krissy

I received my package for the Favorite Things Swap, and the package was labeled "Good Mail From Krissy"! My partner, Krissy (thinking-of-blue.blogspot.com), sent me some really fun things in the package, all beautifully wrapped...

1) Favorite summer beach read - Firefly Beach (Can't wait to read it!)

2) Favorite childhood game - Mad Libs (Who doesn't love these!)

3) Favorite childhood treat - Animal crackers (These are a favorite adult treat for me!)

4) Favorite candy - dark chocolate (This chocolate looked fancy and tasted awesome!)

5) Favorite lotion/scent - Vanilla (Smells great!)

6) Favorite bath product - Bath & Body Warm Vanilla Sugar bath bar (Can't wait to try this!)

7) Favorite on-the-go makeup - Maybelline Liquid Eyes in Lasting Lavendar (Pretty color...)

8) Favorite color - Crayons in a "Rainbow" of colors (I was excited to see Krissy's favorite color is "rainbow", because I sent her something that makes rainbows!)
9) Favorite "craft" - Play-doh (I also love play-doh!)

10) Favorite flowers to plant - Forget-me-nots (Such a pretty little flower)

A Fairy Magical Package

My fairy pincushion in a matchbox (with lots of extras) arrived from the UK today. Magical! See what my partner, Sonya, sent me? Check out the pictures.

Favorite Things Swap

I'm going to participate in the Favorite Things Swap at:

I wanted to participate in the last one of these I saw, but I was too slow to sign up, so I'm excited about this!

My crafty sister

My sister Kelly (http://alittleofthisandthat-kelly.blogspot.com/) can pretty much do anything, and she's always making something for somebody (even though she has a big house, three kids, a job in Real Estate, and many, many hobbies). I don't know how she does it all, but as our Mom would say, "She's a Gemini". Anyway, here is the wonderful reading pillow she just made for me. I just love it.

Easter Eggstravaganza Swap

My partner really spoiled me with all the wonderful items she sent me for this Swap-bot swap (top picture). The next two pictures show what I put together for my partner.

Theme swap

Another swap I participated in on Swap-bot was this theme swap. I picked Outer Space for my theme - my partner decided to send me items having to do with "Stardust". I thought this was very clever of her, and I loved what she sent, all things silver and glittery. The partner I sent to chose Dragons, and I had fun putting hers together.

Pincushion in a matchbox (fairy) Swap

This is a swap I participated in on Swap-bot. I had a lot of fun creating my pincushion and decorating my matchbox. I haven't yet received mine from my partner, but when I do I'll be sure to post a picture. This is a picture of the one I made for my partner.
