I'm really happy that you like everything!!! I was kind worried/apprehensive about your reaction especially because I sent you some weird stuff like the old photos and used postcards, probably you think I'm nuts.Ellentje wrote:Caslzelda, you're the best! I just got your parcel today and I love love love everything!![]()
I'll get some pictures of all the awesomeness up soon, but it may have to wait until tomorrow because my camera doesn't handle the dark very well..

Re: SEPT/OCT - Mini Swap 2013
This is the awesome set of gifts I got from Caslzelda
All folded up and everything it sort of comes close to the size restrictions
Some detail on the items:
A Portal grocery bag! She used spray paint to make it and it is so neatly done! When I saw it I was so happy I still had some grocery shopping to do, so I could use it straight away
The lyrics of Phoebe Buffay's most famous song! I'm a huge fan of Friends (I got the cmplete DVD box and watched all the episodes so many times..) I love the illustration and the font. I put it in a frame as soon as I could. I might get one that is a bit bigger to do it proper justice, but at least I can already put it up on the wall now!
A perler bead Pikmin! I just love this little guy, I put him on a shelf in the living room where he seems to be looking for some nice items to bring back to the spaceship.
She also included a very cool (sparkly!) bracelet she made as a Christmas present try-out. I think it's very nice so that experiment was succesful. And to top it all off a big selection of old used postcards from Portugal, with actual Portuguese writing on the back. Of course I don't understand a word of it, but that's part of the charm. Maybe I'll ask my Portuguese colleague (who is actually from Porto!) to translate. And there are even a few old holiday pictures of misterious strangers to give me a sneak peak into someone elses life. All in all very awesome! Thank you so much Caslzelda!

Just finished my three piece set. They are soaking a bit now to get them clean and I'll set them out to dry tomorrow! Hopefully I can have them in the mail by mid-week! 
I hope my swapee likes them!

Finally came up with a great idea for part #1 and finished most of it yesterday. Haven't done anything quite like this either, so it should be interesting.

Re: SEPT/OCT - Mini Swap 2013
When my Swapee sends out my gift, would you do me a favor and ask BMH to let me know to watch out for a package? I love surprises and I LOVE being surprised by the package at the door but recently the UPS AND mail person have both been leaving my packages at another house and when I don't catch it right away they TAKE the packages!

Oh, I would be so upset if I lost my packages due to wrong delivery. They would be hearing from me as well as the neighbors.DuckyBelkins wrote:When my Swapee sends out my gift, would you do me a favor and ask BMH to let me know to watch out for a package?

In other news, I received most of my supplies on Friday, and I have most of it done. The last piece was delivered today, so hoping to finish this up by the weekend and get it sent out next week.

Re: SEPT/OCT - Mini Swap 2013
I've had to put my swap project on pause for the past couple weeks in favor of a wedding quilt that needed to be complete for this Saturday. Good news is, it's done! Once the wedding has passed, I should be able to continue picking away at the swap piece.

Re: SEPT/OCT - Mini Swap 2013
I mailed mine 2 weeks ago. Been looking out to see if my swapper got it, but no word yet. Hoping it made it/ will make it ok.
