I took part in
The Enchanting Rose's 9th Teacup and Mug Exchange. I joined up with both the mug and the teacup exchange this year!
The mug which I received was from the lovely
Kaye in Australia. This is the divine package which she sent me. I love the bright funky mug! And my favourite tea too. Lovely bits of fabric Kaye suggested making needle booklets with (a great idea - might add that to the summer fun list), chocolates and sweet notecards - all perfect for me!
These items below are what I sent to Lyn in Australia (blog-less) I laughed my head off when I found out Lyn was my partner, as we have been swap partners for a few things now. Many, many people took part in this huge swap, so it really is a small world to get a partner of someone you kinda "know".
The tea cup I received was from another kiwi woman -
Bonnie. (actually I think I am r-e-a-l-l-y bad and forgot to even e-mail Bonnie to say it had even arrived! I'm so sorry Bonnie - my brain has been university for weeks and everything else in my life is on the backburner!). What a sweet package to receive -
Lots of my favourite things - sweet teacup (it''ll be on display in our museum at school soon to show pupils older style cups and saucers :) ) , chai tea (having a cup right now), lotion, a notebook and lots of items I can scrapbook with over the summer.
I sent to
Lillie (how funny that she sent to Bonnie!) -
And there we go! Lots of gorgeous packages flying all around the world! What fab swaps to be involved with - I drink a lot of tea while studying and it is so wonderful to have a new sweet mug and tea cup to enjoy my tea in! Thanks to Kaye and Bonnie for lovely packages - mail like this makes my day! And to Stephanie for another wonderful hosting.
Love the tea cup you sent to Lillie
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked my wee package, Kim! :) It was great fun to be your swap partner. :) Nice to meet another Kiwi in the blogosphere too!
ReplyDeleteLove all the gifts. That white one is calling me.
ReplyDeleteSo many fun and pretty items! You were all truly blessed. :)
ReplyDeleteYour packages look so lovely! The mug is bright and colorful, and the teacup soft and pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful lovelies you received and gave in this teacup exchange! So funny how the lady you sent to Lillie and she sent to Bonnie, and also that you know your dear friend you swapped with too, lol! Such loveliness abounds here, and I'm happy to come in and see what joys arrived and left your mailbox through the teaparty exchange :)
ReplyDeleteI always love seeing what everyone gets and gives... So much fun!!

Indeed, it is a small world {{smiles}} I thoroughly enjoyed seeing what you sent and receieved. Everything, and I mean everything, is simply lovely! The mug you got is quite funky and unique and the tea cup you sent to Lillie is stunning! I love the texture and design of it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining the fun, lovely lady. Hugs!
I love my mug & all the other extras you sent, but OMG those bickies were sinful. They disappeared far too quickly, not good for the waistline. Thanks for everything.
ReplyDeleteIt is a small world and Stephanie's exchange makes it even smaller. You sent and received some wonderful mugs and teacups. The extras are the icing on the cake (as my granny would have said). Have a lovely week and drink lots of tea!
ReplyDeleteLove the bold pattern on the mug you received ... very "quilt like"! The lavender mug you sent to Lyn is gorgeous! I know someone who would love that mug in her collection ;) The teacup from Bonnie is so sweet. I also love that teacup you sent to Lillie! My this is confusing!! Enjoy your tea ;)

Lots of wonderful treasures both coming and going - but the serendipity involved with your partners is best. Stephanie is a blessing and you know her "Director" knows best. ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteI always liked how Stephanie's exchanges connect tea lovers from around the world. I was privileged to receive a wonderful package from Lyn during the March exchange. The packages that were sent and received are all lovely. I especially like that beautiful white teacup you gifted to Lillie.
ReplyDeleteIt was a joy to received your package. Love your lovely teacup that you picked for me and the thoughtful extras that came with your package.
