Yay, can't wait to see the pics! 

[rantyhippie]

this is cool. Did someone already send? I guess I better get moving then!

[missiejean]

I should be sending soon!! My mom is teaching me to knit right now, so I might have a few knitted things to send as well hah

I MIGHT receive today! The postman had left a note stating that I have a "large letter" waiting for me. I'm not expecting anything else (well I ordered a book on saturday, but it's coming from UK which usually takes about 4-5 days to Finland) The bad thing is that I can pick it up after 18:00. I don't know if I can wait for four hours!
I also have a graphics tablet waiting for me which can be picked up after 16:00, so if everything goes well, I can spend the two hours in between testing the tablet (and declaring how crappy/fantastic it is).

Now I really hope it's the swap packet I'm getting, otherwise I might feel a bit embarrassed after ranting like this!

[Anofeles]

I MIGHT receive today! ...

So? How is it? I can't wait 

[Anubisheart]

Ohh cant wait!

I'm finally posting what I got from imera! School really kept me busy this week.


First of all, here's the handmade journal I got. It has one of my favorite things, eclipse! I really like the idea she came up with...!


Here's the insides, and there's paintings of nebulae in the front and back cover. They're lovely and metallic!


And here's the actual back cover and the falling stars included. I don't know if you can see, but she actually binded tiny enamel beads into the spine of the book!


I got the cutest trinket box from her, but sadly it didn't make the trip! I didn't have time to fix it, but I'll try some plywood-tape-thing when I get my hands into that. It was filled with 100 lucky stars, all hand folded! (they were literally flooding the parcel because the box no longer could held them in one place)


Here's few of the stars and a bigger one she had included.

Sorry for the crappy photos, but I had to use flash. Finland isn't exactly the most sunniest place during winter. And imera, thank you so much for everything once again, I really love what you made me!

[Anofeles]

Wow, I love the texture of the notebook! Beautiful! ^^
I also thought about making those litte paper stars, they're so cute! But I found out I can't make them pretty because they're so tiny But these are cute!
And now I'm really scared because if the box didn't make the trip.. the things I sent probably haven't chance O_O

[Calabaza]

Oh, what a wonderful package! I love those little folded stars, but I'm with you, Anofeles, I could never get them to look good.
