Back in January and filled with new year excitement I signed up for Captured by Lucys Springtime Surprise Project - my first gift swap! I was a bit apprehensive about picking gifts for someone I hadnt met before, but Im so glad I joined in as it was super fun. My partner was Cristina Colli and it turns out (what a small world we live in) that Id only been looking at, and admiring, her home over on Apartment Therapy a few days before finding out that she was my partner!

Ill share my gift to Cristina in another post, but for now here are some details of the amazing surprise I received.  Lets start with the wrapping, which was beautifully done, tissue paper tied with blue string and garnished with feathers, mixed with origami boxes and envelopes. Having had a look at Cristinas website and blog (she takes the most beautiful still life photographs) I was really hoping she would include one of her prints so was over the moon to open six, which will look great in our bedroom. The whole box matched my love for florals and feathers perfectly, fabric pieces, buttons, washi tape, cute little felt chicks as well as a mini recipe book and clever origami bookmarks shed made herself. I even did a little squeal on un-wrapping the floral cushion cover, which is just gorgeous and I had a spare cushion pad in my cupboard so it is already in use!





I really hope Cristina likes her gifts as much as I liked mine. Its been so fun taking part and seeing all the other swaps taking place on #springtimesurpriseproject - definitely a perfect way to celebrate the start of spring.
