Swap Mania

In an attempt to make more connections, get my blog out there and to get swag in the mail, I signed up for two swaps last month. It was A TON of fun picking out the perfect things for each of the ladies I got and to get stuff from them in the mail. I don’t know if I could be a religious swapper (because, well, I’m SUPER forgetful and tend to get in over my head), but it was a lot of fun doing it throughout this past month, since it was pretty chill for me over here in the Gwyn world. 

 The first swap I did was the Cara Box Swap hosted by the GORGEOUS Caitlin over at Wifessionals. I’m totally joining in again for December. Head on over to her blog to sign up for December. The theme for November was “childhood” and I was paired with Christina from Brown Town. We were supposed to do an adult twist on childhood and she did perfect. I, however, did not. I gave her completely childish things. She however, did a PERFECT job. For sleepovers, she got me PJs. For Lip Smackers, she got me lip gloss. For, sugar, she got me cookies to bake and some candy. For passing notes, she got me a note pad. And for fun, she got me an awesome pair of socks. Head on over to her blog to see the horribly childish things I got her. 

 The second swap I did was the Nail Polish swap done by Rachel at Lala Lists. I LOVE nail polish and this one spoke to me. I’ve done a GREAT job at not biting my nails like I usually do and it’s only because I pain my nails every other day. I was paired with Kisha over at The Glamorous Life of a French Housewife. She SPOILED me. She got me four nail colors AND some of the Sally Hanson rub on nail polishes AND a glass nail file (which works like a dream!). The nail polishes are Essie’s Smokin’ Hot (grey), Sally Hansen’s Magnetic Nail Polish in Electric Emerald (Green and THIS STUFF WAS AMAZING!), Sally Hanson’s Wedding Crasher (sparkly red), Sally Hanson’s Commander in Chic (peachy/nude) and Sally Hanson’s Salon Effects Laced Up (MY FAVORITE! Lasts over 10 days and I’m a nail bitter/picker). So much fun! 

 We’ll see if I can survive the holidays to branch out and find another swap or two to join.
