This Friday I received my parcel for Gracie's 'Because You're Lovely' swap. My partner was none other than Gracie herself. Here is what she gave me:
As you can see, I was spoilt rotten! Gracie's package was full of so much lovely, my heart just about burst! I adore each and every single item she selected for me - I am an absolute stationery nut (just in case that wasn't already obvious!). I have already worn the darling necklace and can't wait to wear the earrings! Gracie, thank you so very much - not only for organising such a fantastic swap, but for putting so much thought into my package. I love it!
Here is what I gave Gracie in return (pales in comparison, I am sorry to say):
In other snail mail news, here is what I gave some of my other pen pals as a first little gift with my first letter:
And here is what I gave Jess with my first letter (you can see what she gave me here):
I have also just been given my partner for Jess's 'Colours of the Rainbow' swap. My partner likes pink - I can't wait to start shopping for her!
In other un-mail related news (but very male related news, haha) my younger sister has started her minor contractions! I will have a little nephew some time very soon. I expect to be woken up at some ridiculous hour tonight, but if not she will be induced at 7am tomorrow morning as her water has already broken. We are all so excited to meet the little man!
I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!
