Heidi of Foxgloves, Fabric and Folly hosted a Very Vintage Valentine Swap. I was partnered with Kimberly of Seashells and Silver. Kimberly is a very sweet and talented young lady and I was very fortunate to have her as my swap partner. Poor Kimberly, little did she know that she would end up with a "rookie" in swapping. But being the sweet girl that Kimberly is, she made me feel good about all of it.
Thank you Kimberly you're too kind!
When I opened the box this is what I found...a box full of individually wrapped presents all pretty in pink and a lovely heart card saying "Open This Last"! Naturally, I wanted to take a peek but I didn't...good thing too I would have ruined the surprises that were waiting for me.
Oh! and what a clever idea to wrap each item separately...who thought of that?
Anyway, it was very exciting to open each box and find a wonderful gift inside just for me!
Thanks Kimberly for adding that special touch!
1. a valentine card with cupid (too cute!)
2. a red mercury glass candlestick with candle (romantic!)
3. a red heart picture frame (gorgeous!)
4. a red mercury glass votive holder with candle (lovely!)
5. a "LOVE" banner (Kimberly made this herself~love it!)
6. a red brooch (special!)
7. sweet angel wings (precious!)
8. a heart card with a sweet message from Kimberly and her list of items for me (so thoughtful!)
Everything was more than I had expected.
Wow! I had no idea that swapping would be this much fun!
Thanks again Kimberly and Heidi for making my first swap a memorable one!
"L" is for LOVE
"L" is for LISA
Hugs and Kisses~
