Teacup exchange reveal!

Hello everyone!  Today Stephanie at the Enchanting Rose is hosting a party so participants in her Teacup and Mug exchanges can share their packages.  I've seen on other blogs how much fun this exchange is, so I decided to join in, and boy was I not disappointed!  Not only did I get to visit the blogs of two ladies I hadn't visited before (always fun finding new to me blogs), I also had a ton of fun!



Bethany Carson of Liberty or Death sent me a package with lots of little touches, including a couple of wrapped gifts,


in addition to a lovely new three piece set (I have a slight three piece set collecting habit :)!  I could tell she looked at my blog to see what I like, which was extra nice of her)

(The cat stickers and Earl Grey tea were two of the wrapped gifts)

(such a pretty pattern!)

Bethany also sent a lovely mug with all sorts of spring flowers.


Perfect for sipping a cup of my new Earl Grey tea outside on a pretty spring evening with my last two gifts:


A gorgeous blue crocheted shawl, and a box of chocolates!  I was definitely spoiled! 

I prepared a box for Emillee of Sincerely Emillee (sneak peak below!) 

 
 
Waiting for my own box was definitely exciting (I love mail!) but it was also a lot of fun putting together a box myself and checking out thrift and antique stores and Homegoods (really I'll take any excuse).  I had a wonderful time--thanks so much to Stephanie for hosting and taking the time to match up all the participants!

  2. It certainly was a fun exchange and like you said a great excuse to go "teacup" shopping. The blue shawl you received is beautiful. I admire that level of handiwork. Your new trio is a perfect addition to your collection. Enjoy your new gifts!

  7. I'm so glad that you were spoiled at your first exchange, Carrie! The lovely trio set is perfect for spring and the crochet shawl is fabulous! The cute cat stickers made me smile (Judith above calls me the "Sticker Queen". HA!).

    I agree that it's always fun to shop for others!
