Package received!

My bead partner, Alicia Marinache  received her package after having to go to the Post to retrieve it! It got there safe and sound... with just a slight detour! well....
I think she liked what I sent!
I know I loved what she sent to me!!

When I received her package... I was giggling because we sent similar items!! I sent her an assortment of items to work with... and colors... I knew she liked blue, but thought I'd send some other stuff as well, like the purple colored thing... and she did the same!!! nearly the same color of purple... and she sent me beach stuff... I sent her beach stuff!!
I knew she liked Lapis Lazuli so I sent a piece... I only had one teardrop piece in my stash, but I sent some dark blue glass beads for her as well.
I also sent a polymer pendant that I made in mokume gane and a few things to go along with it, and then shell beads to go with the resin 'shells' that I made.
I also sent her some brass, a leaf set that I cut out and pounded into shape... and an etched tree of life that I have been making for a while now. I love the design and hope she will as well.

I added a couple of ceramic beada and some more resin pendant shapes for her to play with... and threw in a couple of spools of wire, since she really does a wonderful job with wire wrapping!   I also threw in a few clasps, one handmade copper and a purple one that I bought, it isn't fancy or anything, but it goes with the purple stuff I sent to her!
