Sharing My Swap Goodies!

A few weeks ago I participated in the Farewell Summer, Hello Fall Swap and today I’m sharing the great gifts that I received from my swap partner!! I am so excited that I was partnered with Jennifer from Finding My Way In Texas!  I had met her around the blog world before and was already a follower of her blog but didn’t really KNOW her.  In fact she won the Thirty-One giveaway that I did a little while back.  It was great to get to know each other a little better and I loved shopping for her!!
Farwell Summer - Hello Fall
Jennifer is from Canada but living in Texas with her hubby.  She is SUPER crafty and makes the most beautiful items she sells in her store LoneStar Lovlies!  I love that I have found somebody else my own age that loves to sew and crochet.  Check out her store and her blog!!

Now let me show you the great things for Fall that Jennifer got for me!
 All Stuff and Card
* A beautiful crocheted infinity scar
* A SO CUTE crocheted head scarf (is that the proper name?)
* Mint & Amaretto Hot Cocoa Mix
* Essie nail polish
* A sweet peacock card!
I haven’t had the chance yet to wear either of the scarves but as soon as it gets COLD I will have these babies with me at all times! Love them!  Same goes with the hot cocoa.  I’ve never tried this brand or these flavors and I can’t wait to taste them!
I’m a sucker for nail polish and I’ve been wearing the pink since the day I got it in the mail!
Essie Nail Polish
I’ve never been a fan of nude type colors but I’m hooked on this one!! The picture gives it a little more mauve color than it really is but I think it will go great with everything this Fall.  Essie is probably my new favorite nail polish behind OPI!

Thank you so much Jennifer for putting so much thought into my gift to make it oh so perfect!! My favorite part of doing a swap though is finding a new friend which I think I have done!! :)

**EDIT**
Today I was reading Jennifer's post about the things I sent to her in the swap and I realized I had left something out in my post! Oops!  I had tucked this cute owl necklace in my jewelry box and completely forgot to set it out with my other goodies.  I KNEW I was missing something when I did my post! :)
Isn't she cute!! Check out Jennifer's blog to see what I sent to her!
