Great packages.  I can't wait to get mine and for mine to be received.  I hope it's not lost in post office land.  LOL

[Malina]

I'VE RECEIVED!! Malina, I want to give you a ginormous hug. You did great! I love the stuff she sent.

I'll get pictures up later tonight once I finish my homework (oh the horrors of school).

I just wanted to add that I got my package when I got picked up from tennis. After running several miles and playing matches, I was still squealing with joy when I saw the package in the car. I had to open it right and there (stealing the car keys to use as a knife to open it).

   I'm so glad you liked everything.  I was a little nervous, because a few things were my first time, and they didn't turn out perfect lol  YAY!  My mind is at ease now lol

I've received from Nyxxie, I'm taking pictures now!

Here's some pictures!

We did a coffee personal swap too;

I'M BACK!!! Here are all the goodies Malina sent me! Sorry about the cell phone pictures, but my camera is on vacation with my dad.

I'm putting the best image as an image and the rest as links, so it's a lot cleaner and not as messy (so many pictures in one post drives me insane sometimes)

First, she sent a lovely swap binder! I love it and it's already being used! Not to mention the robot in the corner is adorably cute. Hehe.

Second, she sent an awesome collaged box for my crafty supplies. My yarn stash is slowly sneaking in there. I like the quote "Hell hath no fury like a woman's backhand" best (I'm a tennis player).

I also got this awesome wrist cuff! (I see what you mean by the same idea, Malina!) We both ended up using yarn to spell out each other's name. 
Not on me:

And last, but definitely not least, the tote bag of awesomeness! It's got a duck and it says "SARAH (with an "H")" It's sooo cute! I'm definitely going to be using this a lot.

And, of course, one awesome action shot (excuse the ridiculous yellow hat. I had the urge to wear my duck hat along with my new ducky tote).


  Thanks so much Malina!!! You've made my first swap an  awesome one!

[knitting_nyxxie]

Awsome package!!

Selise I hope you also got your matching Jennifer necklace and your scrabble earrings!

[Selise]

yep, I was wearing them today!  Couldn't get a decent action shot, I'll get a photo ASAP!

[winter83]

This is what Selise sent me.
A really cute ipod plushie made out of felt. A bunch of cards with different meanings of my name. 8 ATCS that spell out my name. 2 coasters and a little J note pad. I really like everything thanks! 

[maezen]

Ok, so here's all the wonderful personalized things I got from psychocraftisredhea d:


An Emily journal!  I specifically asked for a swap journal, so perfect!


A little jar with "E" painted on top... now what to fill it with??  Choices, choices 


A glass measuring cup with my (our-ha!) name etched on it.  The handles are etched too.  Can't have too many of these (trust me!)


A wire cursive Emily keychain.  I used my pegboard to prop it up with so it would stand out better.  Very nice!

A hearty thank you to psychocraftisredhea d!

Emily

Here's what I sent my partner:












Strange glare on it, but it looked fine in person. The cameo was a brooch.


I sewed little hematite stars on them.
