Back in Dec, Lisa from noodleBubble suggested a Valentine Heart Swap on Folksy. The only stipulation was that it had to be HANDMADE and a HEART. Then in Jan she told us who we were making for, with the aim to post by the 5 Feb so it would arrive in time for Valentines Day.
The person I was making for was Claire of LittlePudding, so to get some inspiration I had a look at her shop and profile and came up with the following gifts for her.
Some heart stitch markers, as a knitter I thought these would be useful.
Most people like to read, so a red heart bookmark.
and it wouldn't be Valentines Day with out some chocs!
I have heard that the parcel has arrived safely, so I can now post these picks. She was delighted with the gifts and I've been told the chocs didn't last long with a glass of wine ;-0).
I am so glad you loved your gifts LittlePudding.
My Heart swap was waiting for me when I came home from work today. Suzanne from Handmade - fromtheheart was given the task to make for me.
I received these lovely wooden hanging hearts
and some chocs also!
Thank you Suzanne, they are lovely gifts.
Thanks also to Lisa for arranging the swap, I know alot of time goes into organising these events.
Happy Valentines everyone!
So glad you like them! its been great to swap with you! x
