Christmas Blog Swap 2012

December 27, 2012 by Jenn

When my friend Karen (Toronto Girl West) posted about joining a Christmas Blog Swap hosted by Leigh (All You Need is Love), I immediately threw my hat in the ring (name on the comment list!) and volunteered to take part!  

I was teamed up with Lisa from Jogging on Coffee, and we were to send each other our favourite Christmas gifts/symbols etc with a spending cap at $20.  

Since I spend all of my free time in November and December at the Farmer’s Markets selling my cupcakes and cookies, I found what I wanted to send Lisa there . . . glass ornaments from a local glass artisan, chocolate from a local chocolatier and a red glittery (natural) nail polish!  These were all symbols of Christmas too me . . well, maybe not the chocolate, but it is too delicious not to spread the love across the country! 

When I received my package from Lisa, I was super excited to see what she had picked out for me!

 My favourite coffee throughout the holiday season is hands-down Candy Cane flavour!!  I love it!!  Lisa also sent me some super cute hand towels, that have come in very handy adding some holiday cheer to the home this year, since we didn’t have time to get a tree 🙁 The salt and pepper shakers are super cute as well and P has had fun moving them around the house into different “display” positions and areas for me to discover. 

How cute is the tea mug with it’s own sweater cozy??  I love it!  

Thanks so much Lisa for the cute gifts, and thanks to Leigh for organizing the swap!

    Question: What is the name of the tip cap (?) that you use in your video and where can I buy it from? I loved your instructional class on making Royal Icing flowers. Thank you.
