Mary, who blogs at Mary's Meanderings was my Supply Swap partner.
Elizabeth from Creative Breathing paired us up......in the email she sent telling me who my partner was she mentioned that she thought it was a good pairing....
Well, she wasn't kidding!
Well, she wasn't kidding!
When I received Mary's package, I realized that I had included some of the very same items in the package I sent to her!
Mary decorated an ice cream box, and stuffed it with amazing crafting goodies!
I couldn't wait to untie this little package and see what was packed so carefully.
A hankie with a little cowboy...so cute, ric rac, bias tape, a sewing kit and a bunch of vintage flowers!
Three different shaped vintage tart pans held a child's tea pot, beads, painted china pieces, and baker's twine. Mary so cleverly wrapped the baker's twine around vintage spools!!
Flash cards, decals, post cards, vintage layaway tags, decals and so much more!
Mary also sent a tart pan, filled with small vintage Christmas ornaments...pink and aqua...two of my favorite colors!
The tart pan that held the ornaments has been used already!! It was just what I needed to finish a project for another swap I've joined!
Mary even included something sweet! Mr. Math sure was happy! He loves chocolate too! Since Mary sent two chocolate bars, I shared one with him!
So much fun to receive a package of items to craft with!
Mary did a great job sending me things that I would enjoy.
Hoping she likes her Supply Swap package too!

Wow, what a neat bunch of supplies........and chocolate, too! When I do swaps out here during the spring/summer/fall in Arizona, I have to tell folks not to send me chocolate. It always arrives melted! I need to check out what you sent Mary.

Makes me smile to see that you traded similar items, my partner and I did the same thing! Different brands, different colors, same things we knew the other would use! Great swap!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a really "cool" swap - minus the ice cream, but what a clever idea to use the box for all those sweet goodies!
