As you may know, I took part in the blog swap organised by
Betty and my swap partner
Emma sent me a lovely parcel. She also told me that there were more things she had got ready for the swap, but had forgotten to post them, so to look out for them in parcel two. They arrived safe and sound this week.
The parcel was unwrapped with great excitement and here's what greeted me...
I set it out and there was a lavender shortbread pack, made with Jersey lavender, a map and tourist guide of Jersey, a bags of blue beads, a blue crocheted flower, a peach rose brooch, and a very pretty bead necklace (the flowers and necklace made by Emma),
Here are the necklace, beads and flowers - so pretty!
So, I put the two parcels of goodies together and this is what I received.
Wow - what a fantastic lot of loveliness! I am really looking forward to making (and eating) the shortbread - I'll let you know how I get on. A HUGE thank you to Emma for all the beautiful things. Blog swaps are so much fun!
WHAT a generous and thoughtful bounty of things to receive. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, EC. I love it too - Emma was very generous and I was very lucky.
