I don't always have the time to take part in as many swaps as I'd like but when I do take the plunge I'm always thrilled that I did. Back in December Ali came up with the wonderful idea of a '7 days of specialness swap' to take place in February. The idea being that we'd be paired with a partner, make or buy 7 small items for them and that they should be opened over the course of 7 days. I'm especially excited about this swap as my specialness partner is Chloe Patricia of Ma Mercerie all the way across the world in Japan. Chloe Patricia is known for her beautifully intricate traditional japanese silk thimbles and her attention to detail is clear in the wonderful little packages that she's sent me, each one encased in a beautiful, delicate handmade paper envelope.
I can't wait to open each one and will post again with pictures of the gifts inside.
