{isn't her wrapping wonderful?}
The lovely Jac, of Coco Sunday, sent me a handmade zippered pouch and one of her fabulous photographs. I squealed a little bit.
{all hand embroidered!}
And this gift will keep on giving, because it's a pay it forward type of thing. Five of you will receive little packages from me, on the condition that you in turn select five lucky people who will get something from you. It's low pressure - the gifts can be small, and you don't have to get them out immediately.
Interested? Leave a comment here, letting me know if you want to participate. I'll announce my five picks on Friday.
After all, sending pretty packages in the mail is almost as fun as receiving them.
That sounds wonderful! I'm interested!
ReplyDeleteYES! YES to paying it forward, and yes to handmade pretties! Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!
ReplyDelete(That is the loveliest pouch in all the land. Sigh.)
although I am slightly concerned about the standard that has been set here :s
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea! I would love to participate, and pay it foward!

ReplyDeleteI've done something similar before on swapbot. I would love to participate!
ReplyDeleteIs there anything better than receiving a package in the mail with your name on it? Brightens my day every time... I love the idea of getting a package and then paying if forward to five other people and making their day. I'd love to play!

ReplyDeleteoh, i would love this! i get so many things in the mail that are wonderful but i can't use, for one reason or another...i'd love to pass them on to someone who would squeal with delight when they opened the package!
