My package has arrived Now, the other two things I was waiting for came at the same time so I hope you don't mind if they're in the pics too. I was just too darn excited!

The cause of my excitement (even though I had to pay COD charges on the big heavy one... grrr...)
My snap press, package from TatteredSpider and a birthday card from my Father (with $ inside!!)


The snap press (angels singing in the background...)


My poor mutilated package. "The enclosed item of mail was either received in this condition or damaged during its processing..." Um, I'm assuming the later is the correct statement.


It was already opened...


The treasures inside...


These two fabrics confuse me... What type of material are they? What are they typically used for?



These trims are my favourite. I will probably use them on dresses for my daughter


Thanks TatteredSpider!



Next swap please....!

Awesome package!! Totally jealous of the snap press!!

[h0p31355]

maybe a dumb question...but what IS a snap press?

I use it to put polyacetal snaps on cloth diapers. I'll also be doing snaps for my friends bibs. Expensive but well worth it in the long run!

 Since me and my partner, h0p31355, only live 30 minutes away from eachother, we decided to meet to exchange our packages!! We opened them there, but took them home to take pics of everything.

Where we met!




All my goodies! She really outdid herself, with the envelope she also got me this box and THAT was even filled with more stuff!

 My box that I'm soo excited to decorate!!


 Everything in the box.. I'm so happy she included sponge brushes, I was using the same one for my Mod Podge for almost 3 months!


 Tons of paper!!


 My 2 favorites


 I can finally learn how to crochet!

 
 Fabric (LOVE the kitties!), a book for crocheting, and something that was really sweet of her! She went to culinary school, which is something I really want to get into and have a passion for. She included a handwritten notebook filled with info, tips, recipes, everything to do with baking and culinary arts, which is FANTASTIC! It honestly meant alot to me, as I don't actually know anyone who knows stuff about pastry arts and everything, so it was really nice to talk to someone who does!
 

 Everything was great, and it was really cool to swap in person! THANKS SO MUCH for everything, I love everything!!
