Here We Are Together

I often get asked things like “what’s the point of a blog?” “what do you get out of it?”
& the answer is quite simple:
connections.

This morning some lovely visitors arrived at our home,
it was Rosaleen of MamaUK with her two lovely little one’s
K & L .

We spent the day together at the beach,
had a lovely picnic & enjoyed watching our girls play together.

By the time we went home the little one’s where covered in sand,
had wet feet & their pockets full of rocks , seashells and other treasures, as it should be.

My littlest?
He had a lot of fun eating couscous & sand, of course.

I hope you had a lovely day, too!

ps// all the swap problems should be sorted now, though due to some very last minute sign-ups some of you are sending to the same person they will be receiving something from, I hope that’s alright.
Please aim to have your swap packages sent out by the 16th of September, or send me an email if you think you will not be able to finish in time, so I can let your partner know.

You should have received an email with your swap partners details by now,
if you didn’t, please let me know!
For now? Back to summer-ing!

When I said something about needing more comfort during this & the next season, some of you kindly offered to send something handmade our way, so we thought, why not make it a swap?
We will be swapping handmade items & craft supplies, & I would be so very happy if you would all take part as well.

How to join?
Just send an email with your address to miri@herewearetogether.com !
If you like, you can include some details about yourself, such as hobbies, favourite colour ,
if you have children & how old they are, so that your swap partner knows a little bit about you.

How does it work?
I will use the random number generator to match you up with your partner,
you will send something to one person, & receive something from a different person.
(that means you will get to know two new friends!)

What to swap?
Craft supplies like thread, yarn, fabric, beads, pens etc,
& of course anything handmade, like coasters, blankets, paintings, necklaces etc,
just make something any way you like & send it off!

Please let me know in your mail if you are absolutely not able to ship internationally, as a few Mamas from England & Ireland are taking part.

The last day to sign up will be the 14th of August.

I am really looking forward to this,
thank you!

ps// For those of you who asked, yes, it is perfectly fine to include your business card in your swap package!
