For my package, which I posted all wrapped, I tried to get things that represented Christmas by me and also spoil my partner. Cause really, what's better than being spoiled during the holidays? (Note that these photos are borrowed from my swap partner, I really hope she doesn't mind :)). The package had to include yarn and something hand-made.
The item that I made were dragonflies and butterflies. My partner makes wire jewelry and really likes butterflies and dragonflies, so I figured she could maybe use these as part of a larger project.
Here is the entire unwrapped swap package: a jewelry holder, some Christmas balls, a book I love and kind of figured she wanted, a Christmas tree ice cube tray, some socks, the hand-made goodies, a whole bunch of yarn, hot cocoa, gummy bears, beads, pom-poms....annnnnnd a letter with some recipes in it that my mom and I make for the holidays :).
Now, on to the package I got!
Every object was wrapped up in colorful tissue paper!! HOW CUTE!
And here we have all of the goodies! Yarn, a hand-made cowl, crochet hooks, patterns, little Christmas trees, things for decorating cookies, a coaster, pens, hand-made earrings, and a lovely hand made note! I was so spoiled!
Here is some new yarn that I've never tried or even heard of! I'm so excited! The colors are so so so vibrant!
These lovely Christmas trees found their way onto the bulletin board in my office :).
She also made me these AWESOME wire earrings! She is just so talented :).
Thank you Shanti!! I love everything!!!!
I love the yarn and earrings and... well, everything! :)
