I received a wonderful package from @MelissaLeeDesigns First can I just say that everything was packaged beautifully.

I feel totally spoiled.

First there is a yarn donut. Ironically enough when I was looking for patterns for this swap I bookmarked a pattern for future use that uses a yarn donut. A wooden SEW shadow box. A mandala bactrian camel which is going on my camel wall immediately.

Look at this perfect vintage camper. Oh I love it. The colors are perfect. Wooden buttons! More vintage camper goodness, as well as books and tiny TARDIS’s. And a lovely bookmark.

And there’s more! Tiny wooden cutouts and a slew of buttons. You can never have too many buttons.

Thank you Melissa! I love everything. I have some swap anxiety now, not going to lie.

What fabulous packages! I got mine from @Bugaboo as well. Here’s my awesome loot!

First off, twin size fitted sheets fit my table perfectly for tablecloths. She sent me an Easter themed one!

And an extra green one that I could decorate for Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Yummy minty soaps and chocolate lip balms, along with scrubbies! We are going to smell fantastic!

Some additional bath accessories and a few miniature items:

Four large bowl cozies! The photo shows the insides and the outsides. She sent 2 each of the blue and Orange.

An awesome and amusing recipe book! I think she used resin for the covers and it turned out really cool.

A gorgeous bracelet, lariat necklace, and a whole bunch of cool miniature frames (made from resin again I think)!

Thank you @Bugaboo ! What an awesome package!!

I was going to use h the medium box and had been storing everything in one until I wrapped up the cross stitch and realized it was too big for that one and had to grab the other size instead.

I’m glad you like it all! I’ve been working on the cross stitch for a month, just stitching away. I’m a slow cross stitcher.

What a wonderful package, @Bugaboo! Love the recipe book and the jewelry especially. Fun Easter tablecloth, just in time for the holiday, too! Bowl cozies are so useful. My husband likes his soup really hot, so we have plenty of those.

Those mandrakes are so stinking cute!

I’m really behind on appropriate commenting because I hate typing on my phone. Sorry!

@AntBee The ombre pink scarf is so pretty and looks so soft! The wreath is really pretty. So many nice goodies for @bugaboo!

@sonjaboo I adore the gorgeous bee hoop from @kwality570. It’s spectacular. The cute lemon and the pouch are so fun! Lots of great goodies stuffed in that box! Sonjaboo, I love the pretty silks and yarns you sent kwality. The pocket letter is so great and colorful! I adore the spool house…and that kitty pouch… Adorbs!

@MightyMitochondria @endymion was a perfect partner to tailor to your wishes! A sleep study of her own brain…cool! Really awesome neuron! Funderbar!

@gozer Wow! The cat cross stitch from @jillybeans is stunning! I’ve never watched Bob’s Burgers, but the shirt is cool. So many awesome goodies in your box! jillybeans, I am loving all the great things you got in your box, but the mandrakes are the piece de resistance imho. I love the personalized hoopla.

@lady4feet That is a great haul of fun buttons from @MelissaLeeDesigns. I can’t wait to see what you make with the yarn donut and camel. Great box of goodies!

@Bunny1kenobi I love that a twin size fitted sheet fits your table. The easter egg one is a great idea by @bugaboo. I’ve received soaps and balms from her before, so I know those are a treat, and they are packaged so pretty! I should ask for bowl cozies in a swap sometime. I always think that, and never do. They are awesome. Cool bracelet.

This really is a superb gallery with such an assortment of things that fill these boxes!

Unfortunately, @Bugaboo is having some connectivity issues, but I did hear from her via email. She received my package but can’t post pics just now so I will do so.

I sent her some address labels and lip balms (for her and the 2 youngest kiddos), and a magnet for the fridge.



She likes flamingos, and happy mail, so I did a set of watercolor notecards for her. (I would never have attempted this if not for @jemimah’s class! Thank you!)


She just started a new job, which got me thinking about decorated file folders. I attempted something I’d never considered before: fabric covered file folders. I quite liked how these turned out!

I sent some earrings- these are vintage! I replaced the nasty old hooks with some new French loops.

Some other little things- colorful wire, some super sparkly eyeshadow for her daughter, a cute can cozy for hot summer days, a decorative tin and some adult coloring fun. Also a colorful lanyard and a couple of necklaces.



I made this sketchbook for her youngest son. Ok, not the book itself- I just added the lettering.

These bowls, though… when I saw them in the store they told me quite emphatically that they were destined to go to her house. So they did.


I wrapped them in the upholstery fabric you can see in the pic there.

I also sent along a couple of ceramic bird houses for her kids to decorate, but forgot to grab pics of those before sending. However, @Bugaboo emailed me this one!

She said she likes it all so … yay!!
