Once again I took part in Stephanie's Cup and Mug Exchange. It's such a fun thing to do, and I so enjoy choosing things for my partner.
I received this box of exquisitely wrapped packages yesterday.
Each one was tied with a different colour ribbon.
Tonia, from Allthingzsewn blog sent me such a delightful selection of good things.
You can see the handfuls of ribbon there!
I have never seen a mug quite like this one, it resembled a little blue plantpot with a saucer.
With it came such a generous pack of coffee, some pretty blue and white fabric, a charming patchwork holder, a sweet lace mat and even more little things.
The mug even has its own little spade (coffee spoon)!
What lovely things friends find to send.
For my partner I selected things with a William Morris theme.
A mug, with a teabag saucer both in a Morris design.
Various teas, including some grown in Cornwall, and some soaps from France with a little swishy thing (no idea what one calls it)
Thanks to Stephanie who organises this so well each year.

Such a lovely gift package you received as well as sent off.
How very pretty each little gift was wrapped and tied with a different colored ribbon. Very nice!
Lovely packages given and received. It's fun to receive something in the mail!
What a lovely gift of treasures to enjoy. I must say I loved the sweet pile of ribbons ... your friend and I must share similar interest in ribbon colours and combos. I'm so pleased for your pleasure. Bren xox
Hello Barbara, so nice to see the two delightful selections! I can't even say which one I like best but the gardener's mug is certainly one of a kind :-). Happy Maydays to you both, we are in 'Mayhem' and amidst packing and writing more lists, our spirits are high :-))).
Lovely boxes for the tea/coffee exchange. How fun to send and receive these.
I liked seeing the first picture of how everything was so beautifully packaged! Both gifts, sent and received, were so thoughtful. The gardening mug set is adorable!
Lovely gifts!

I love the mug!!! I've not seen one quite like that either. It's so cute! Tea grown in Cornwall? I had no idea! I bet it is delicious. Love, my friend!
