Back to your regular scheduled program.
Course, I would have to blog regularly enough for anything to be regular around here.
***crickets***
Anywho, I also love, love, love craft swaps on blogs. You never know who you will get paired with and what you will get...it's a lot of fun to give and receive. I participated in a swap at Amanda's blog Every Crafty Endeavor for a Fall swap. I {heart} Fall and loved the idea of sharing some of my Fall faves! I got paired with Ami at Ali Lily. First of all her little one is adorable! And she made me the most adorable Fall wreath. I'm really, really, really loving rosettes right now so it was PERFECT. She even included a bracelet for me and everyone in our family...how sweet is that! Check out her blog at the link I provided to get a better shot of the adorableness that this wreath is!
So what did I send her? Well, take a look...
* I love candy corn. I know I'm kinda alone on that one, but paired with salty peanuts it is one tasty treat!
* Bath and Body Works goodies...who doesn't love a bubble bath in the Fall.
* Candles. I love baked good scents for Fall, my fav is Pumpkin Spice!
* Starbucks Gift Card! I can drink hot coffee year round and LOVE the Pumpkin variations that Starbucks releases exclusively in the Fall!
* And a jersey knit scarf. I actually made this one. I love scarves and would be trendy and wear them all year long, but I can't do a scarf in the Texas heat...just can't do it. It turned out pretty cute, so I hope Ami loves it!
I'm trying my best to get back into the swing of blogging, bare with me as I get the blogs I write in my mind everyday posted.

I'm jealous! I want this!!!!!
What a fun package!!!!
I love some mail too! I have only done one swap, but it was so much fun. My favorite mail day is when a new magazine comes. It means an excuse to relax and get some great ideas.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. Feel free to steal any ideas you see. That's what they are there for!
Amy
Umm, did you change your blog address back again?!?!? Were people really that thrown off?
What a fun idea!! Love that wreath!
