Enchanting Rose 10th Teacup/Mug Exchange Reveal
Enchanting Rose 10th Teacup/Mug Exchange Reveal
Stephanie at The Enchanting Rose was holding her 10th teacup and mug exchange the beginning of March and I was so happy I was able to sign up. It was a little like having a Secret Santa in March! So here is my Enchanting Rose 10th Teacup/Mug Exchange Reveal!
What I Gave
You could either exchange a mug or a teacup or both. Since I didn’t have much time to find a nice teacup I decided I would just join the mug exchange. The name I received to send a mug to was Deanna Hoyt who lives in Utah. Her favorite color is red and she likes to garden. Those are the two things I focused her gifts around. I started by crocheting her 2 red flower coasters.
Then I bought 2 white mugs with red interiors. I used my Cricut to cut the words “Blessed” out of gold vinyl.
In addition I bought a pretty white box with red flowers on it. Furthermore I added gardening gloves, red and white flower seeds, a notepad and herbal tea. It was so much fun putting all of this together! Finally I mailed Deanna’s package!
What I Received
A few days after I mailed Deanna’s package, I received my package from a lady that only lives about 30 miles from my house! Sharon Lane(check out her blog – Twisty Lane) sent me some of the most beautiful gifts that were all wrapped in pretty paper! The first thing I opened was my mug – it is so perfect with all the roses!
Then I opened the notepad and note cards. The note cards are almost too pretty to write on – don’t you agree?
There was also a large variety of tea, a hot pad, a teabag holder and a tea storage container. So I’ve been drinking a different tea for breakfast every morning!
It was almost like Sharon somehow already knew me – everything was something I would have picked out for myself!
As a result of participating in this mug exchange I’m now looking forward to the one Stephanie at The Enchanting Rose will be holding in the fall! It will be sometime in September or October – hopefully you will join up as well!
What a loving and cheerful activity! You are clever, Roseann. The gift you created shows much about you – gentle, thoughtful, talented. I look forward to participating in the fall exchange. BTW – have increased my consumption of fresh fruits, veggies, and steamed veggies. Rare to have processed food – w/exception of the worst – doughnuts n cookies. Was progressing, but did not have stamina to deny homemade Slovak Easter desserts …
Both of your boxes look like boxes of sushine! I am sure you will enjoy your gift! What fun.
Oh my, sunshine! Auto correct really does not help!
It was a lot of fun Lynn!
I love getting to see what everyone gave and received. So much fun!

It is definitely fun looking at everyone’s posts and pictures!
Roseann,
The packages you received and sent are full of the nicest gifts! I am intrigued by the vinyl you attached to the mug. Love it. The mug you received is beautiful too. I also love roses! I’ve been participating in this swap for quite some time and it never gets old. I so enjoy it! Hope you enjoy using your new mug!

Thanks for stopping by Jill!
Oh my, both packages are overflowing with love and beauty! How incredibly sweet of you to put together a box of goodies with red as the theme color since that is what Deanna enjoys. Everything looks so pretty!
And how delightful to find out Sharon lives neabry! What fun 🙂 She certainly gifted you with many beautiful things. Enjoy, dear one!
And thank you for joining the exchange. I am so glad you enjoyed yourself and Lord-willing, I will “see” you next time! Hugs! Stephanie-The Enchanting Rose
Thank you for hosting this Stephanie! I know it is a lot of work for you but we certainly appreciate your efforts!
I like the mug you chose to send along with the coordinating red flowers.
The mug and goodies received are wonderful, definitely a parcel of love from Sharon.
Thanks for visiting Judith!
What wonderful treasures both coming and going.
This was my 3rd time in the exchange. I exchange teacups. I always forget to photograph what I send out. I hate I do that! Cynthia is my new friend and she sent me so many wonderful things. I am so blessed.
It seems you are too.
I will always try to join in on the exchange fun as long as I am able, and as long as Stephanie is willing to sweetly organize it. ♥
It is always a blessing to find new friends!
Great items. – Isn’t it fun to be a part of this.
It is most definitely a fun event Ida!
Popping over from Stephanie’s blog. Sweet little crocheted items! Love that you could design a mug using a cricut. I had no idea! That hot pad pattern comes as an apron, which I have 🙂 Found it at TJ Maxx and love it. Those note cards are divine!!
Blessings to you!
I will have to check out the apron at TJ Maxx!
So glad you are enjoying your Spring tea box! It was a lot of fun for me to put together.
Thanks so much for all my gifts Sharon, they were all so lovely!
Oh, how pretty! I love the beautiful coasters you crocheted!! Just so lovely and cheerful. You did a great job on your package, and the package you received was just amazing, too. So thankful the Lord allows us all to connect through this wonderful exchange! So happy to meet you today!
Thank you for stopping by to visit Cheryl!
What a great exchange you had! I love your crocheted coasters! So pretty! And the goodies you received are just as nice!
