If you read this post you know I participated in Short Mama's Spring Swap. I had some much fun picking out some great Okinawan items for my partner over at Duck, Duck, Cow. I was beyond thrilled when my package arrived. Of course this was well over a month ago. Life was incredibly hectic at the time and I just did not have the time to sit down and blog about it. I am embarrassed that it has taken me this long to get this post up but better late than never right?
First of all I have to say that Jessica is amazing. When I opened the packaged sitting on the very top were 2 suckers with note that said to give them to the girls immediately so I could open my package in peace. Isn't she brilliant? The next thing I noticed was the beautiful paper my gifts were wrapped in. I am a sucker for anything pink and black! Things just got better from there. The package was full of all sorts of fabulous goodies such as:
*Gorgeous scrapbook paper (I have so many projects in mind for these!)
*Ribbon and Clips to make hair bows for the girls (cute ribbon is hard to come by here!)
*A great flower silicone ice cube tray (and it's pink!)
*A beautiful blue necklace and earring set (that I have already worn a bunch)
*An adorable picnic basket full of springy magnets (most of them are on my fridge)
*A bag of delicious mini cadbury eggs (those are long gone!)
*A bowl full of royal icing flowers (I am so excited to use these on a cake!)
*An cute package of tissues (for all those seasonal sniffles)
*A yummy smelling bar of soap (that is way too pretty to use!)
I could not have asked for a better swap partner or a better package!! Thank you Jessica.
PS There are some things missing from the picture, it is because I have already used them or I was wearing them and forgot to take them off to add them to the picture - like my adorable necklace.

Looks like you got great stuff!
Hooray! Glad you liked the package. I am addicted to swaps. And can I just tell you how much use I've gotten out of the supplies you sent me? The kids beg for bird-shaped cheese slices, or puzzle sandwiches made with the other cutters. These are so much fun!
