I just got the absolutely delightful package from Jane over at Queen Conch! I cannot find the computer cord for my camera to show the pictures but will show them as soon as I do. Thank you so much Jane! This dear sweet lady went to a lot of work to make some beautiful gifts (just for ME). First of all she covered the box so pretty that I am going to set it on my vanity to keep my special things in. Then inside the box was an abundance of gifts. She made me a starfish soap to wash my hands with after being in the garden.She made a candle shaped like a seashell. I also got some homemade seaside sugar scrub to use on my face, hands and feet (going to try that out tonight). This sweet lady made a gorgeous pair of shell earrings that I love. love. love! I got 3 packets of her own special packaged seeds. ( candytuft, red poppy and calendula) and I cannot wait to get them in the ground!!!! She painted a seashell on a beautiful rock that is sitting here on my desk now as a paperweight along with the little ladybug note holder.I got the yummiest sachet to put in my dresser drawer. She used a flower material and sewed it in shape of a heart. She must of read how I love tea and sent me green and creme caramel teabags. My favorite gift (though I really really love them all)...... She took a salad fork, decorated it with wire shaped into a design and holding a pretty blue stone at the top and put a magnet on the back so I could use it to hold a photo on my fridge!! I love it! I have never seen one like it and have it on the fridge now..... Thank you from the bottom of my heart Jane. You really outdid yourself on this package and I am so lucky you were chosen for me. (thank you Ms. Robyn). I promise as soon as I find my cord I will post photos of my very special package. I just LOVE these swaps!

FIND THAT CORD!!!! I can't wait to see pictures of all this wonderful stuff! What a special box, for a special person! Hugs, Sher
that sounds delightful, Peggy! I love these swaps - how one woman puts together a package for another woman whom she has never met. Good job, queen conch! I tell you we are in the process of making our own little group of ya-ya sisterhood!
Just wanted to pop by, say hello, and wish you a beautiful week. :-)
