Happy link-up day, friends! Amy and I have had a blast with this swap, and we are so thankful for all of you who signed up and participated! I hope you had fun shopping, found some new favorite Etsy shops, and made new friends in this community. There are some real gems out there!
Now on to the fun part! I finally get to show you everything I gave and received! Snail mail is one of my love languages, so getting to send thoughtful gifts and receive thoughtful gifts in the mail kind of makes my day...or my week.
I was assigned Laura of According to Laura Jean, and I had so much fun shopping for her! Fun fact: earlier this year, we found out that Laura knows my little sister Mer who is getting married in a few short months! The world is seriously small. Anyway, Laura loves a mix of nature, feminine style, and outdoorsy things, so I put together an eclectic box for her that hopefully she enjoys!
Moose Tea Towel | Gingiber
Autumn Note Card | Everyday Love Art
Vincent Van Gogh Print | Rivers and Roads
Jane Austen Post Card | Pemberley Pond
My Etsy goodies came from Jenna of Dearest Love. Fun fact: I actually know Jenna in real life! We got to go to the Maiedae Mixer together as well as the Renew Retreat. I love becoming real life friends with my blogger friends! If you don't know Jenna, you should take care of that ASAP. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She is so kind and thoughtful and an incredible baker. She made the most scrumptious nutella bread while I was staying at her house for the Mixer. Yum. I still dream about that goodness.
Jenna picked out some of the cutest post cards from one of my favorite etsy shops! See, I told you she was thoughtful. :) Check out what all she sent me! Thanks, Jenna! :)
Scenic Post Cards | 1Canoe2
Tinsel Twine | Thatch & Thistle
HEY Note Cards | Target
This swap was so fun, and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! If you weren't able to participate this time around, don't fret! Etsy Swap will be back in the spring, so please join us then! For now, check out everyone's Etsy posts to see what they got! XOXO.
Loving that Jane Austen post card! I think I'm seeing an Austen theme going around with the Etsy Swap gifts!
Meg, you pulled such sweet and thoughtful things for Laura, and Jenna did such a great job shopping for you! And that tinsel twine is going to be so fun to play with - do you know what you're going to do with it?
Everything you got Laura was so especially wonderful, did you paint the Mother Teresa quote? It is so beautifully done! She is sure to love everything you got her. I love love love 1Canoe2 art, and I especially loved the John Muir card, what thoughtful gifts Jenna got you!Thanks for hosting such a fun swap!
The Mother Teresa quote is from an Etsy shop, but I cannot remember which one, and I forgot to check before I mailed it off! HAHA. Fail. It is super cute though!
You are welcome!! So glad you got to participate. Love these swaps so much!
Ahhh I know! It's so great! I heart Jane Austen.
