This year I participated in the Cold Hands, Warm Hearts Swap hosted by Ilene of Much Love, Illy and Sandy of Sandy a la Mode. The swap was created to keep hands warm as winter approaches and the weather gets colder, and to be a way for bloggers to make new friends across the blog world. Swap packages were to include a pair of of gloves/mittens, and then any other items you thought your partner would like. The lovely hosts paired me up with Kenyé from Glow Kouture for this year’s swap. She’s a graphic designer like me, and runs a handmade shop for the accessories she makes. Head on over to her blog to see what I sent her, and check out the goodies that she sent to me below. 🙂 This was a lot of fun, and I’m certainly planning on doing it again next year.
Some fuzzy goodies.
A sparkly dragon!
Fabric-covered pocket mirrors than Kenyé made herself.
A Texas necklace.
A big clutch purse thing that Kenyé made herself as well.
Oh my goodness! That little winter monster, and that dragon! <3333 Also, I love love love those fuzzy looking glovesies!
I wish I knew more about this in advance. I didn't do any research, because I thought we were needed to MAKE gloves, which I can't do yet. D'oh! Note to self: pay more attention. 😉
Wow, those gifts seem so personal! This is my second year doing the swap, and it’s so neat to see all the different things that get sent. I’d love if you could check out my post too!
