Back in July I was looking through Instagram and found this way cool announcement. Covered in Glitter and Glue was organizing a blogger exchange for back to school. A secret pal, if you will, that gives one gift.
Loved the idea.
I filled out the form, and just before heading on summer vacation I found out who my pal was.
Fun and stressful to find great gifts, stay within the $ guidelines, and find some goodies my pal would like.
Before I could get the box sent, I received my box. However, I did not allow myself to open it until my box had been sent.
Fun fact: we had each other's name. The pal I was buying for, also bought for me!
I waited another day to open the box.
The contents brought a smile to my face. Just take a look...
Candy, a composition notebook in red, stickers, post its, pens, stamps, and a fun spiral notebook.
The spiral notebook has traveled everywhere with me. I have my B2S lists in it. A list of all staff at my school (because I'm making a surprise). Grocery list. It is just small and fun.
But, my absolute favorite part of the gift... the pens!
They write so smoothly, and so many colors! My pages are bright and cheery.
So, who is my mystery blogger exchange pal? Karen from An Apple a Day in First Grade.
Thank you so much Karen! I love it!!!
Too cool!
