Hi Daisy- So I got you package today, but i think there may be a mistake? Is it possible I got the wrong one?
Just because, the swap was supposed to be (see above)

1x small/medium EASTER themed item, you can choose to do either;
* a plushie or dotee
* an item of jewellery
* a purse/pouch/wallet
And:
1x chocolate bar


Im afraid I received none of the items listed above.I received some stationary and a homemade biscuit....

The pencil, stickers and hairclip are very cute- but not sure they were for this swap?

I'm sorry they weren't exactly right for the swap. I sent you the home made biscuit because it's a traditional Easter thing. I sent you the hairclip as a kind of item of jewellry/accesory. The other things were just extras.
Sorry if you didn't like the things I sent you,I didn't have time to make you anything...

Oh I see, I just was expecting a dottee/plush (as I asked for it specifically) and chocolate, as that was the swap parameters. So thought you might have sent me the wrong package. Im afraid I cant eat the biscuit as I dont like almonds (I said that I dont like nutes above actually), and as a rule I dont eat homemade items sent from abroad, very sorry, im sure you put a lot of heart and effort into it. I didnt consider the hairclip to be jewellery, but if you ran out of time, thats okay, these things happen.

The swap had a very tight turn around, the only suggestion i'd make is that next time, perhaps ask if your partner is okay with alternative options so theres no suprises or dissapointments. Thanks for the items

Sorry for some reason it didn't register in my head that almond paste contained nuts...I'm SO sorry. I didn't have time to make you a plushie so I thought it would be okay to send you various items...
Sorry again, I guess I'll just learn from my mistakes!

Hei Hayley, I got your parcel! I actually got it on Monday, but I've been awfully busy and didn't manage to post a pic until right now (1.13 am btw, my life's a bit hectic lately!). Do I need to tell you how much I **LOVE** it??!!

Yay! Glad you liked the clutch- it didnt come out 100% like I wanted it to- I think the fabric I used wasnt quite strong enough, maybe when I get my sewing machine I can make them a bit less scruffy! Happy Easter! x
