Lakota over at Faith Hope and Charity shopping blog hosted a wonderful swap where she paired us up with partners. It had a red white and blue theme for the celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
I was paired up with the Lovely Marina from Wales over at Evelyn-May blog.
Marina and her cute as a button daughter Mia spoiled me rotten in a box wrapped festively in the cutest Union Jack paper.
Thanks so much Marina I did not know it but I sure did need a little spoiling, and I loved everything.
beautiful linens, a lovely book, and a pretty heart
pretty shawl~ scarf...
cute napkins and pencils...
For the swap the items needed to be thrifted and in the color scheme of red white and blue. Anna and I had fun hitting the local thrift store on the hunt for red white and blue treasures to send to Marina.
I enjoyed the interactive blogging and getting to make a new acquaintance from the other side of the world. I am so glad I participated. Thanks Again Marina & Mia.
Happy Jubilee!!
