Swap received! As usual in our super forum, we organized a swap party.
This time the theme was the pampering of the senses. The commitment was in the make or buy a "cuddle" for each direction, do not strictly a "super-pampering" for ..
sixth sense, un'Atc themed party and a greeting card.
We had more than a month to work on this gift befanizio, even if the parties do not half have some help!
Without extractions have happened with Maura (Seraphina in the forum) ... to my great joy, because I really like how kind and I appreciate very much his work.
Yesterday got my giant pack, with all the super things that Maura has made for me ....
This is the first photo: the box (Giant
) that Maura has done for me with his hands .... a lavorone, which I hope will be able to evaluate even in pictures!
The box is huge and heavy .. really made of cardboard and often resistant (proof Ila
) .. is green and the lid is decorated with rice paper, green light ... perfect combination
Packages are all coordinated. They are brown paper bags in gold, decorated with red ribbons organza type, synthetic felt gift tag in Christmas-themed stickers and homemade, showing the contents ..
In one of the small photos can be seen throughout the care packaging (that is, everything has arrived intact!) And the ticket
ticket "Truck" because of my passion for trucks is perfect! And the packages were beautiful and well kept!
This is the ATC. Wonderful! Really, I loved it. Unfortunately the photo does not make them justice at all! It 'made of felted wool needle, also has the Cheerleader and the base is coated with a paper velvety to the touch. I liked it so much .. it's really cuddly and witches!
To view, Maura has created for me a frame covered with rice paper in the same greenish covering the big box. The genius ... I have the mirror, but if you want you can take to turn it into a simple frame! So it's a reversible frame!
It 's very nice! And it was a surprise!
Too bad it was almost impossible to photograph ... and that, again, the photo did not reward.
The spoils of taste. ... Inside a bottle of wine .. that will open in a few special occasion .. perfect for a toast to both of you! A Bonarda 2009 ... slurp!
Along with the bottle was a cloth bag (the type of packet), which has everything you need ready to make a good-mulled wine (which was trapped in the package .. and it is not in the photo) Accompanying the bottle and bag a pack of chestnuts. Excellent! Not conscious! In practice, chestnuts dryness and then let it soak in water. They have all their skin and are truly exceptional. They are soft and sweet!
And also another merit ... just like me in the house !!!!!!
smell ... Here I am. Cannella !!!!! I will not hear much other than smell cinnamon from September to March! A candle coated with cinnamon sticks, with the trick of letting "loose", only linked with a string .. so you can reuse!
In addition to this candle is a small bottle of essence of cinnamon, spice useful for the candle itself, but I will use my burner!
parenthesis, my sister, who makes candles in Spain with her he ... I was never given a candle as "just for me," I said
AND EVERYTHING!
Pamper your ears. The rattle in the wind I've always wanted, but for many reasons I never bought or made! There's a great rattle
ila modeled, hanging in the middle, and is mounted with the green wire. Unfortunately it was
infotografabile .... I did my best!
Pamper for touch ... amigurumi a pickup truck is perfect in every detail, which could be a keychain, but I will use as Phonestrap, both because I love things "small"
Maura has also embroidered my name on the side! And there are 4 wheel ... not imagine what might have troubled to do!
And now .. drum roll .. the super cuddle!!
Maura has produced a box of wonders, to stackable bins, in the same tones of the big box ... with three trays stacked (but free from each other), the last of which with a lid that opens doors.
There are studs in each compartment and, closing two tapes, also equipped with buttons, it becomes a door fuses embroidery kit, portable.
E this is the extra pampering, Maura insisted on sending me that in addition to rest, because for a mishap sent the swap with a few days late! ; ; ; In practice it's a box with two compartments. Vellutatissima red-lined paper that has two openings .. .. but if you open the one hand, there's not open ... oh God I do not know how to explain the pictures and you do not understand! But it's too
elegance!!
E 'made very well, without a smudge! Heavy cardboard ... so beautiful ... Maura is truly a sight in the cardboard (and more !)... The monster that you do first ..
I leave it to the viewer! He followed my profile .. took many in the middle of my taste ... I was surprised too, making me discover tastes that I thought I had (like chestnuts, which I thought I did not like that!
) ... It was a ' beautiful experience ... and I was very fortunate to have partnered with her.
the next episode I show you what I did to her ....
Notebook A5 ring embellished with a purple cover patchwork 
And for the most feel the cold ..... boule of cherry stones, are heated in the oven, microwave or on a radiator ..... already proven good even with my daughters 
For a romantic rack decorated with a drawing pad + LCS signed the "handmade" 
and now a good photo angle Valentine in my shop ..... 
year, I added a few pages at the bottom of the phone book and I sewed all together. Thanks to the helpful tips 
do not deny it! 
denied) ... and I sent everything in a wooden box, to give those bottles of wine.
