Swaperu!!


I was so excited to find my mailman had hidden a package for me today! (He, thoughtfully, always hides my packages somewhere on my porch once he hid a flat mailer under my doormat, took a couple days to figure out where it was...) Check out the beautiful package I received from my swap partner Neila. Sorry the picture is a little small. It's also on my flicker page. Lets see clockwise from the bottom left... A set of paper napkins that will come in quite handy at Thanksgiving dinner, A pumpkin, which will join the pumpkin I inherited from my grandmother, they seem to be put together in the same way and even the stem is the same, although the older pumpkin is just orange Jem, (my fiancee's online name not real name, did I tell you all that already? Its from to kill a mocking bird) anyway, Jem says I need three to call it a pumpkin patch, but I'll call it one anyway. They make a great little center piece. Then I have a Pumpkin mug which will be filled with Hot chocolate here soon, some pumpkin hand soap (already in the guest bathroom) a pumpkin car freshener, A cross stitch fall themed kitchen towel (already in the kitchen) which looks realy good from the back side too. I'm not that good with the back sides of things, major kudos to Neila. Its my favorite thing, well it and the pumpkin. Some fall themed ribbon, I wish I had more fall gifts to give... a box of Chocolates which I gave to Jem becuase he loves chocolate and he kept eyeing it anyway, if I'm lucky he might share a piece. Some pumpkin bubble bath and some apple lip gloss, and four fat quarters which I think will become cloth napkins but I'm not sure yet. The yellow one is my favorite fabric it has a lovely vintage feel. Thanks so much Neila its wonderfull!
