Swap Favorite Things? Check and Check

My Favorite Things Swap (Hosted By The Pink Potpourri) - Click here to join!

My package for the Favorite Things Swap arrived today! As I’ve mentioned before, my partner was the lovely Meg @ Queens Fort Mama – and she sent me some pretty lovely things – wanna see? You know you do!

I know some of the things might be hard to see clearly, so I’ll break it down for you. :)

This awesome mix CD has some of Meg’s favorite songs like Vulnerable by Secondhand Serenade, Beauty in the Breakdown by the Scene Aesthetic, Such Great Heights by Iron & Wine, and Better Together by Jack Johnson (those last two are some of my favorite songs as well!).

Super cute gardening gloves!

These cupcake confetti sprinkles look so yummy – I can’t wait to use them!

And how cute are these stencils? I’ve never seen anything like them (I know I don’t get out much) and they look so fun! Do you think Meg knows I have a sweet tooth?

Um and just so you know, Meg, I’ve been kind of secretly wanting a cute spatula for awhile now – you saved me from having to beg my husband the next time we were in the store. :)

Little Know Fact: I’m fascinated by the Civil War – but my knowledge of it kind of ends after Gone With the Wind, so I am oh so excited about perusing this book! (ps: Don’t mind the glare, it says “amazing”)

And seriously what could be better than a demon-hunting soccer mom? This book is RIGHT up my alley.

In short, this whole swap idea is brilliant and I had a great time giving and recieving. Hope Meg liked her package as much as I liked mine. :) Thanks lady!

Anyone else gotten their swap packages yet?

WWWAT: Beginnings & Endings

First subject – hand soap!

Going a bit in reverse, here’s the ending shot – the end of a bottle of soap

(Softsoap, which I only bought because it was pomegranate and red…

Doesn’t really match our decor but, I love the color red…) And if you notice…

You can see the new bottle in this picture, but here it is alone:

And the beginning of a new bottle, just opened –

I much prefer Method products &

I love how the blue looks with the overall decor.

Much prettier, no?

But I’m not done yet – I also took another set of photos with this beginnings and endings theme in mind…

The subject being something I’m a bit obsessed with right now, for good reason I think…
