#7 – A Kangaroo! You will definitely see more of this little guy.. if you haven’t already!
#8 – A purse and wallet! I looooove the texture of this fabric! It looks leathery, but is so soft! (please excuse the yucky, blurry picture)
#9 – T shirts!…. and look who’s couldn’t wait to try them out….
Dakota: “Thanks Anna-Maria! I finally have something other than this crappy pair of pants to wear!”
Gee thanks, Dakota.
And then…
Dakota: “This is for me, right?!”
Oye.
Anywho.. let’s finish up before he takes more of my stuff…
#10 – And finally, a poster!
Look at all the goodies!
Now for some photography fun, click to embiggen:
I set it all up in my Expedit. Everything fit soooo well!
The above is my favorite pic of the bunch.
That little rascal is back.. eying my stuff!
All I have to say is WOW! Thanks so much to the Shopping Sherpa (more like the AWESOME Sherpa!) for the gifts! I feel like I have to make something special the next time we swap… I don’t think my gift measured up properly. You have been warned! 😉
Ann, these are all great items!!! They look so wonderful with your furniture. I am drooling all over the keyboard… which is sorta gross since my mouth is currently full of girl scout cookies. 😉 *slurp*
Sounds like Dakota may be distantly related to that snarky, sticky fingered Tessie. 😀
LOVERS it!!!!
Dakota is more like the kind that you can’t say “no” to because he’s so darn cute and he knows it!
What a fun swap! all the office pieces, magazines & books are lovely & work so well with your bookcase, + the mini expresso machine is brilliant.
The ideas board should look great on a wall above one of your desks (& I’ve always loved that Nick Knight photograph of Sarah Stockbridge that’s on there).
Thanks Bean! I’ve always been meaning to make office supplies, but would rather design furniture. The Sherpa saved the day!
And I love that photo too!
What an incredible swap! Well worth the wait, I’d say. Love all the red. 🙂
I agree! And red is (one of) my favorite colors!
Damn: hadn’t noticed I’d cut the Arne Jacobsen book so wonky: let me know if you need a replacement…
Nah, it’s fine for me. I’m more likely to stuff it in a bookcase though!.. since I seem to be making so many of them lately..
Glad you liked it all and glad the T shirt fitted Dakota. I’m thinking he needs a hat (want to flick me his head circumference and height?)
I suggest moving the espresso machine before using it: having it so high is a bit of an OH&S issue 😉
And I’m loving my new word for the day: “embiggen”
I think he needs hair first! I’ve been meaning to buy him some.. I keep forgetting.. doh!
Embiggen is a fun word. I try to use it as much as I can, where appropriate 😉
I just assumed he was a Canteen kid 😉
He might be.. I haven’t decided yet! lol
Oooh this is amazing!!
I love all the office supplies! I’m an mini office freak, it seems it’s the only thing I love to do in mini besides kitchen 😀
Have fun with those in photo shoots!

I am a mini office freak too! Not so much in the kitchen, so I’ll leave that to the pros like you! 😉
Thanks for commenting!
What a wonderful swap!
Everything is wonderful.
