Bunny Swap Reveal & Friday Follow

I am linking up to the waaay coool Friday Follow Party for the first time. It's new to me so I'll let you know how it goes. Basically, I expect to meet a bunch of new blogger friends. I just love meeting new sweeties in Blog Land, don't you? There are a whole lotta neat people out there who inspire me everyday.

This was crazy-fun. It was , also, the first swap that I’ve participated in. It was the Bunny Swap hosted by Miz Mollye! You can hop on over for a full list of partiers. This swap was a great time and Miz Mollye says she’s doing another swap and will give details on April 12. Those of us who wanted to participate signed up and were matched with a blogger who also signed up. My partner was the wonderful Sue from Collectin Texas Gal Blogspot.

I could hardly wait for my Bunny Swap box to arrive in the mail! I think the reason I was extra-excited was the fact that the treasures contained within would definitely be a surprise. My hubby and kids get me presents for special occasions, their gifts are always perfect and I , almost always guess what I’m getting. Since I didn’t know Sue before the swap, I was intrigued by the idea of a true surprise. What would this dear lady from Texas put in a Bunny Swap package?

The entire street on which we live must have heard me squeal; “ My Bunny Swap box is here!!!”. I couldn’t wait to tear into it.

The first peek into the box made me giddy. Doesn’t it look like a fun party going on in there?

Look at this sweet heart with a perfect saying.The purple flowers are so pretty.

An oval frame made of complimentary fabric, nested in a matching fabric box. I could add my own picture but I am enjoying the Victorian photo for now. Tea in a Talavera box! What a sweet little tea packet holder! How I love Talavera tiles. I fell deeply in “want” for Talavera tile everything, after a vacation to Puerto Vallarta a couple of years ago.

Each side of the box is painted a different flower design-love that!

Oops, I need a better picture of this little bunny that is hiding in the background. Sue just knew I was a Collectin Gal from Colorado. This little bunny holder is old and a true treasure. It has a “Japan” sticker on the bottom.

Delicate hankies from Paris, ooh la la! How did she know that I am obsessed with antique and vintage hankies?! These cute little bunny and egg confetti shapes sprinkled out along with the goodies.

Are you kidding me?! The hits just keep coming :) I am a collector of purses and swoon for any toile I can get my hands on. A purse MADE with a toile fabric? Hold me up! To make the design more spectacular, the purse is decked out in a chain and jewels.

So how about that? Someone I just met through blogging and the Bunny Swap, chose items that someone who has known me for a long time, could have chosen. How totally cool is that?

Thank you, Sue, for putting together a perfect box for me. I have been delighting in the treasures daily since they arrived. Many blessings to you my new friend!
