This year I am participating the the Lovely Package Exchange over at oh, hello friend.
I am sooooooo excited!
I've met my super fabulous swap partner Emily who blogs at GoHausGo.
{Emily you should have received your package, but if not don't scroll down!!}
Since my blog is almost always sewing related, I thought I'd snap a few pictures of things around my house so Emily can get a better sense of my style; though I think she probably 'gets' me enough already. Nothing like Pinterest boards to bring new friends closer together right? {smile}
Hi. My name is Mary Claire and I can't stop buying vintage glass.
Collection of bits above my cutting station.
Vintage Christmas? Yes, please!
Vintage 50's bedroom furniture complete with an ugly but I still like it lamp.
You'll notice all my earrings, love earrings! Most of mine are from Elizabeth Williams
Jukebox! 45's of kitschy music; love!
In the kitchen: pyrex, cookbooks, and recipe boxes.
Okay enough pictures of my stuff; do you want to see what I sent to Emily?
A smorgasbord of goodness (least I hope so!) Vintage floral frog with St. Louis postcard, K. Hall soap, vintage miniature princess phone, wooden snowflake ornament, vintage milk bottle to use as a vase, a vintage apron, a letterpress note pad, and a little wallet that I sewed up.
I painted and papered a sturdy shoe box to create a make shift 'hat box' to hold all the goodies.
Wrapped it with some torn fabric strips, bakers twine, and a few baubles.
I thoroughly enjoyed putting this package together; I hope you love it Emily!

You are so crafty, who couldn't help but love such a fun gift!
I absolutely loved it! Thank you so much! I wrote you a little email as well. I'm wearing the apron again tonight. Hope you have a great holiday and we'll have to keep in touch. Keep on the look out for your package!
