Gah! OOLONG - My Favorite - I'm a bit ambivalent towards you at the moment, Onyxnox

LOL - remind me then, if you an I are ever buddied for another swap like this one, to send you a pouch of it   Does that reduce the ambivalence a bit?

It most certainly does - I am easily persuaded with treats great, now I have to stalk you so that I can swap with you :p at least I'll have a head start on the stalking

Yesterday, I got my package from blushingbluegrass!! Let me tell you... There was a lot jammed into a little box! I really liked everything The kids wanted to model, so try to overlook their cuteness and focus on the swap goodies

First, there was a set of a Harry Potter themed hat and arm warmers. My daughter took the arm warmers and played with them for several hours last night. I discovered that arm warmers also make good leg warmers and robot arms. Who knew?


Sorry for the crap cell phone pics. My camera decided to have a fussy day and not work properly. Here's a better view of the hat.



Next was a sewn scarf with a pocket in it. My son thought this was the coolest thing on the planet.



Then, for the drink accessory there was a green and black checkered coffee cup sleeve which fits my favorite coffee cup perfectly. She also included two bars of lavender cp soap out of her first ever batch. I am excited to try these. They smell lovely



For the hot drink, she sent me some loose leaf chai tea from a local shop and a tea strainer. I couldn't get a shot of the strainer because my husband was busy trying to drink all the tea before I could get any



Thank you so much, blushingbluegrass for a great swap package! I'm still working hard on yours, and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed mine. Since I didn't get the best quality pictures, feel free to post them if you have better ones

Oh man, I hope what I send is just as awesome as what has been posted so far! I am trying my hardest!

So glad you liked everything, opheliapoe! Your kids are adorable.... Funny you mentioned that the arm warmers make good robot arms; every time I tried those arm warmers on, I felt I had to to do the robot for some reason! I was kind of going "elvish" with that hat, so I hope it wasn't too silly.

I am sorry I didn't get a chance to post pictures yesterday of my awesome package from Onyxnox!! Anyways, I LOOOOOOOOOVE everything so much!!! I can't tell you how good this package smelled when I opened it! Here are the pics!

She included nutty cinnamon coffee and a holiday blend (I can't get over how good they smell!), Cream of Avalon tea, the cutest tea wallet, gift cards, and cinnamon honey sticks. And see the beautiful pashmina she incuded?!


I can't tell you how much I LOOOOOVE the hot/cold pack that you see in this picture! It can be worn around the waist and is filled with lavendar flowers and oil.  Lavendar is my absolute favourite!!! I go to bed wearing a lavendar eye pillow after drinking a hot cup of tea so thank you so much!! She also included a cup and cozy. So cute!


Here is a fleece cowl that is adorable! I tried to take an action shot of myself but they didn't turn out well. I couldn't get a good picture of the front of the cowl. I'll try to get my boyfriend to take a better action shot tomorrow!


I had to take a closeup pic of the tea wallet because it is just too cute! I love the ladybug button it!


Thank you so much Onyxnox!  You really spoiled me!

Its adorable! My husband and I were joking that it made my daughter look like a garden gnome... lol. But, I really like it!!

Don't know how I missed this. Everything looks so cool.

YAY!  I am glad you like your package.  I was just having some of the Holiday Blend yesterday - the smell is absolutely divine isn't it?  I love lavender too, but I was worried it may get overwhelming in the package and taint the tea and coffee, which was why I packaged it in the ziploc bag.  Enjoy it all in good health!
