The Great British Seaside Swap

This was another fantastic swap organised by Julie over at KC's Court
and I was partnered with the lovely Sue over at Vintage from the Village.
My parcel arrived with this wonderful tape all around it - how fab is that!

This is what I found inside.....
I did laugh out loud when I saw this - an ingenious play on the theme of this swap and great thinking outside the box!!!
This is not a great photo of this RNLI nail file but I think you get the gist.
I also received two lovely lavender bags
surfer's delight
and pearwhelk
There was also some wonderful lighthouse fabric which I am hoping to use when I revamp my summerhouse with a beach/nautical theme.
Imagine my delight when I opened this package as I had coveted the tape on the outside of my parcel and now I have my very own!
These photographic notecards from the RNLI are amazing and I can't wait to use them.
Now you can't beat a lovely cup of tea, even at the seaside and I shall look forward to a nice cup of tea and some biscuits in my new mug, coaster and tray set.
 
Finally Sue also sent me some lovely buttons that she wasn't going to use and that I can add to my collection.

Thank you Sue for being such a fantastic and patient swap partner and thank you to Julie for organizing a brilliant swap.
