Fall Friendship Swap 2012

A few weeks ago I signed up for a Fall Friendship Swap through Vignettes.
What is a Fall Friendship Swap? you ask ...
Well, first we all signed up, then we got matched with a partner. Then we had  two weeks to get a package of fall goodness together to mail out to our partner (spending a maximum of $20). And received a package in return. So without further ado ...

My partner was Aliesha from Feathers in Our Nest (btw, she recently posted a recipe for Pumpkin Spice Bagels...Bagels! She made her own Bagels! so awesome)
I have to admit that I was intimidated when she told me this was her 3rd year participating, I got matched with a pro.! I hope she is enjoying my box as much as I am hers:
I can't believe how many little goodies she fit in this box

Who doesn't love a good chocolate

I'm so excited to add this little pumpkin to a collection of 3 other similar Pumpkins I have


How adorable is this acorn?! And she made this crafty little picture frame


Definitely excited to have a new coffee cup for work, and she even included a little tea bag

Thank you so much Aliesha for your thoughtfulness!
& 
Thanks to Kristin for organizing the swap!

    Wow - this might be the box of all fall boxes! I love how she sent a thermal coffee mug and are those home made clothes pins? Soo cute - and the clipboard, I love it too. I received a beauuuutiful wreath and just love it! xo

    That box is wonderful! I want to steal that acorn from you right this second. I love it.

    This was the most fun I've had doing a blog swap!

    I love the little pumpkin you received! I think I'll be collecting ceramic pumpkins since my new friend send me a few. They're fantastic decorations. :) I also love your blog. Happy Happy Fall!

    Hi Sarah! I'm so glad you enjoyed participating this year. Looks like you got a box full of treasure...those chocolates are calling to me through the computer screen (and it's not even 8am yet...not good)! Wasn't a travel mug a good idea...hmmm...I'll have to remember that one for future swap partners ;-). And like everyone else. THAT ACORN!!! Too. Stinkin'. Cute. So glad you linked up to share all your goodies with us. Have a wonderful ending to your week...
