Finally I was able to send out the package for my creative swap partner last Sunday. Before the November swap, I thought of pulling the yarn again. But when Caryn announced my swap partner, I immediately changed plans and already knew what is more practical to pull out instead. I searched for a neat warmer from Ikea. No second thoughts when I saw this warmer slash blanket. It comes in three colors (navy blue, red and white). I found the white one most pleasing, aside from the fact that the texture is so huggable.

Early this week I’ve got a mail from General Santos. It’s from Sheng, my first ever creative swap partner. She sent me a thank you card for the goodies I sent her last month. To my delight, enclosed are three pretty customized bookmarks. That meant replacing the bookmark I got from the Picasso Exhibit. These self-made bookmarks are priceless. And that leaf-like one is my favorite (at the middle).

I got my first creative swap goodies early this week. It’s been ages since I got a non-work related package/snail mail. I was so delighted. Moreso, when I learned that it was from the Creative Swap’s host. I was with some of my closest office pals when I opened the package. I felt like a celebrity that moment. They were so curious about the contents. I still remember how amused they were when I said that I joined an online creative swap. They exclaimed, “you still have the time?”, “oh, I think my life is boring. I should be doing something unusual, too”, etc.
Caryn made a bracelet for me which I really, really liked. I even wore it that day even if it didn’t match my dark brown suit. I was feeling fashionista. I’ve never cling any dangling pairs since I came here. So, I’ll try the earrings this weekend. I’m still sorting a topper to match it. I intend to wear the necklace when we go to Desert Safari.
