When doing my 1st mug swap my partner Sarah over at lifeinabreakdown was holding her own silly sock swap so i couldn't turn down an opportunity and signed up :)
A few weeks ago i was paired with the fabulous Laura who blogs over at www.laurziemack.blogspot.co.uk
The aim was to have a budget of £5 and use that for socks for your partner.
Last week i got a fab parcel through the door, i new right away it would be my socks, Harry was with me and was as excited as me to open it.
Wrapped in lovely pink paper was my socks, i love swaps for this moment, knowing what it is but not knowing what they will be like at all, very exciting!
Opening the pink tissue paper, i found my fabulous socks and a lovely little note!!
HOW AMAZINGLY CUTE!

I, in all my years of online gift buying, have never seen personalised socks. The very lovely Laura had used Harry's newborn picture from my blog and had 'Lucy the leopard print mommy' written underneath. Just so thoughtful and lovely.
Thank you so much Laura, they are so fab that i wont be wearing them (please don't think this is a bad thing) Ive already stored them in one of my memory boxes because there far to lovely to wear.
I have loved doing this swap, i really hope Laura liked her swap socks and the sweeties for her little boys :)
Please do go over to www.laurziemack.blogspot.co.uk to check out her fab blog and also to the lovely Sarah's blog www.lifeinabreakdown.com who was kind enough to hold and organise this swap.
If anyone has any more swaps running do let me know and i will join in :)
