The Box











The box was on my front porch yesterday when the girls and I arrived home from school.... We took it inside and Emily decided she should open it so away she went.... inside, the cutest hand stamped desk set. A pencil box that can hold all sorts of stuff on my scrapbooking table, complete with a wooden letter "K" on the front. This included a "bouquet" of pencils and a metal ruler. The tinest little clips with ribbons were attached to the sides.

Then a wonderful Red book with my name stamped on the front and tucked inside, a few fall recipes which I can't wait to try. The caramel corn sounds delish. I've always been afraid to make caramel corn because I would think the pan would be a nightmare to clean afterwards. Am I right about this??? I think I will try this though! The book also included a great ribbon bookmark that Kylie had her eye on.

Last but not least a mini clipboard with sticky notes and a beautiful glittery flower at the bottom.
Oh yeah her card was hand stamped too. Kira included that one of her favorite things about fall is buying school supplies.... ME too! I go down the supply isles every time I'm in a store, you never know what kind of treasure there will be there to alter or play with. When I was a child I always wanted new pens and notebooks.... Thanks so much Kira for the wonderful gift. Hope you enjoy yours too. Thanks Laura for the Fall Favorite things swap it was lots of fun.

I am so glad you like it. I had a hard time putting it in the box, I wanted to keep it for myself. I haven't recieved your box yet, I'm waiting patiently. (Ok, not so patiently)
