These parcels arrived yesterday. Delivered to my desk at work in a large white box. And believe me, it took every ounce of self-restraint not to open them on the spot or on the subway ride home. I may have left work a little early. Just a little, so I could rush home to tear into my Back to School Swap goodies.
Oh boy! I felt really lucky to have been partnered with the swap host - Heidi! And she has sure set the swapping bar very high, as this is the first one I have ever received. Amazing stuff. First of all, please just notice how coordinated everything is, in these pretty aquas and sage greens. Love. From the post-it notes and pen roll to the packing ribbons and note card.
I got not one, not two, but three notebooks to get me going at school. Phew - lucky me! The tote bag is really great. Very generously sized (even for a notorious over-packer like me), with brilliant details in the lining. I love the Friday Prize label and tag detail.
Well. It wasn't Friday, but it sure was one hellofa Prize. Thank you, thank you so much Heidi! And thanks for organising the whole thing too.
Wow, lucky you! Everything is gorgeous and she is so creative. I'm loving seeing all the great stuff everyone is getting. Can't wait to see mine!
