A few weeks ago I signed up for the Faith Hope and Charity Swapping swap over at Faith Hope and Charity Shopping
I was teamed up with Caroline as my swap partner and my goodness me she sent a belter of a swap parcel.
Some delicious toiletries (I am a real sucker for nice toiletries,) and I had no idea that Evian made anything other than water - I'm looking forward to trying their moisturiser and the Body Shop scrub, and hand cream is always useful and very welcome.
Some lovely crafty goodies - embroidery threads, vintage knitting patterns and some sweet little cross stitch kits.
A book which promises to be just up my street as it's a murder mystery, a DVD starring among others Julie Andrews, Colin Firth and Stephen Fry - again just my cup of tea, and a Past Times scented candle.
And, last but not least, the jewellery part of the swap, a lovely chunky necklace. Thank you, Caroline, I'm really delighted with everything you sent. And many thanks to Lakota for organising the swap too.
Still on the subject of swaps, my swap partner from the dishcloth swap, Jen at The Woollen Earth, has got a photo of what I sent her on her blog (stupid here had forgotten to take a photo before I sent the parcel off to Nova Scotia!!)
What a fab swap!
Lucky thing.
