Two Great Books and a Fun Swap

I have received two packages in the past couple of weeks  The first was the two great books from Where Women Create.  Last summer I participated in the Where Bloggers Create event sponsored by Karen at My Desert Cottage.  I was one of the random winners of  prizes given by Where Women Create to participants. My prize was a copy of these two books signed by the author.  I love books and have enjoyed reading through these two beautiful books.   I will be reading through them again and again.




My second package in the mail was a box sent by my swap partner.  I participated in a swap sponsored by Kathy at Creative Home Expressions.  She matched up swap partners and by reading their blogs we came up with a little gift package.  I will show you the gifts I received from my swap partner Pamela at From My Front Porch to Yours.

  4. Pamela sent you some lovely things, Sherry! The key fob is pretty and useful ~ I really love that idea! I'm so glad you participated. I love the Where Women Create book. I actually purchased one to giveaway last year and was sorry I didn't get one for myself. If I remember right, there were some wonderful pictures to inspire my own creative space.
