I’m part of a blogging group for people in the Pacific Northwest. Laura from bitsofsweetness.com set up a really fun summer box swap for those that wished to participate. We were matched with another PNW blogger and exchanged a box of goodies with each other. It was super fun to receive a surprise package in the mail and in the process, get to know another local blog and blogger. I was paired with Rachel of holy-craft.com and she completely spoiled me with an awesome box of gifts:

When I arrived back from my 4th of July vacation, this package was waiting for me. It contained:
- Chevron scarf in one of my favorite colors!
- Yellow Necklace and earrings set — I’m totally looking forward to adding this pop of color to my usually boring outfits
- Chevron print hair ties
- Green beaded bracelet with really cool crochet(?) and button closure
- Coconut Water Chill lotion which smells SO good
- Godiva Caramel bar (hello, chocolate!)
- Starbucks gift card — LOVE the Space Needle design on it!
- Orange is the New Black book — Rachel must have dug deep on this one to know that I love this Netflix series. It’s funny because I had JUST found out that it was originally a book! I’m looking forward to reading it!
- Turbo buttons — my kids are going to love putting these on their backpacks for school!
Rachel has a really fun blog filled with fun craft tutorials, recipes, frugal tips and more mixed in with posts about her awesome family. I recently enjoyed her Garage Sale Finds Friday post where she scored some really cool pieces that were priced by weight and an antique looking chair for only $1.99!
Be sure to follow Rachel on Instagram for some really neat pics of the Pacific Northwest and so much more!
You’ll also want to check out the swap organizer Laura’s social media accounts. This adorable mom of (soon to be!) 3 has a great sense of style, loves spending quality learning time with her boys and is a photographer that has been featured in magazines! Find her on:
Was there a price limit for these? I think I might have to try to participate in the next one!
This one had a minimum $20 guideline — it was so much fun! You should totally join in next time! 🙂
