It's time for the big reveal! Time to share the goodies received during Stephanie's 9th Teacup and Mug Exchange. This lovely lady puts so much work and effort into making this a wonderful exchange for so many of us; I think I saw somewhere there were 198 participants worldwide.
Thank you, dear Stephanie, for blessing us with this fun time, and for helping us all to meet new friends.
I got a beautiful package from Cynthia at View from a Garden. She's got me all figured out, with my love of pink and feminine and girly details.
First, the beautiful pearlescent teacup in shades of pink and gold. Isn't it gorgeous?
Two adorable little Christmas trees, made by Cynthia. Love those pink and white pearls!
A fun notebook, pen, and bookmark.
And some lovely smelling tea, blended by a friend of hers, and perfect for sleep. Thank you, Cynthia, for remembering my sleep issues. This will make the perfect relaxing cup of before-bed tea.
It smells wonderful.
Pretty handmade note paper and envelope.
Thank you so much Cynthia. I will enjoy each and every one of these treasures.
I had the privilege of sending a package to Kim at Wisdom With Needle and Thread.
Love this shade of blue.
After I took the pictures above, I realized one of the vintage handkerchiefs had a frayed edge. So I swapped it out for this pretty one.
Be sure to visit all the other participants in this exchange by visiting Stephanie at The Enchanting Rose.
Cynthia has certainly gotten to know you well, Deborah. The package was perfect for you. You'll have to let us know how the tea works. :)Hopefully some wonderful sleep ahead. I'm off to visit some of the others. Thanks for the link. Deb
