This is my fourth swap I've participated in, but the first time I was set up in a trio, so instead of having one partner and us sending goodies to each other, someone was assigned to buy for me, and I was assigned to buy for someone else. It was kind of fun getting to know a little bit about two awesome ladies!
The person sending to me was Liz from the great state of Nevada (we're neighbors!). It was kind of funny when I saw her return address because I haven't had a swap buddy who lived so "close" before. You can find her on Instagram and Facebook. I can't wait to share all the wonderful things she got for us with you on Friday.
My girls and I were sending a box full of girly fun off to Jessica and her two little Georgia peaches over on the east coast. Jessica blogs at Jessica Lynn Writes and it's a very pretty corner of the web (I really need to do some updates to mine, if only money grew on trees or I was better with HTML...). She has been blogging since 2005... so basically since they first became a thing; I guess she's sort of a trend setter. ;) I love her writing style, {this post} about the time she "accidentally" attended a breastfeeding support group is one of my favorites.
Jessica is a military wife, and if you want to find out more about her, you can check out her About Me page, it's one of my favorites I've ever seen! Jessica has two darling little ones that we got to pick out fun things for, a two year old and a newborn, just two months! You can check her out on some of my favorite social media sites, including: Instagram // Pinterest // Facebook
Box Swaps are so fun! I just participated in one this month! The suspense is killing me lol but getting to know new bloggy friends is worth it :)
ReplyDeleteI know! I always get so excited when I see the box show up on my doorstep! And I love getting to know other bloggers this way too. :)
DeleteSomething else new I am learning about today. Box swaps. Who came up with this idea? Pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI know, I'm not sure how they first came to be, but they are super fun and addicting! :)
DeleteWhat a fun idea!
ReplyDeleteI love love love box swaps!!! I am doing the Mother's Day one and my parcel arrived today!!! I haven't opened it Yet Eeekkk waiting for some nice light tomorrow so I can of course photo it.
ReplyDeleteAnd my partner thankfully told me hers arrived safe and sound and sent the most adorable video of her daughter running over the bubble wrap and popping it! (I said if she's anything like me bubble wrap would be almost as exciting as the gift itself lol)
Fun! I thought about doing the Mother's Day one but decided to try amd restrain myself, lol.
DeleteCould just a couple of tree grow money???! That would be great! I really want to part take in more box swaps. Hahaha
ReplyDeleteI know! They are so much fun but I almost feel guilty about spending the money on them :)
Delete:) Thank you for such kind words about my blog!! I don't think I could've had a better partner for this swap—the things you sent were totally spot on! I'm writing up my post now (for Monday) and it's making me excited all over again. You rock!!
ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet! I'm so glad you enjoyed your package! We had fun picking out goodies, and you had supplied a lot of great information so it was pretty easy. :)
