I had to unpack mine and cut two inches off one side of the envelope so that it would fit into our local postbox...

Posted mine today and as I dropped it in the postbox I noticed that they do not collect on Saturday afternoon, it won’t go until Monday so it might be late, sorry.

Had a delivery today which was not from eBay, so will wait until tomorrow to open and share.

Exiting, if trying not to be tempted to open today.   0_0

Just here to acknowledge receipt of my mug rug swap - oh my - whomever you are you spent a small fortune on postage - a 'special delivery' no less.
Will thank you better after I open tomorrow.

I am going to have a shower, then make myself a cup of coffee and open my lovely calligraphied envelope.    :D

@Efemera I couldn't tell that they weren't both meant to be exactly as they are, they're lovely.

Just here to publicly thank @Kitten for her most appropriate Autumnal offerings - really love them to bits - I am relying on her to post her own photos as I am hopeless in that department.

Lovely to see some spectacular work already - mine is very mundane compared to what I've seen already but I did want to take part.
Thanks again Kitten.

Hernibs has no access to a camera at the moment so has asked me to insert the pics, Kitten took before sending the MR's over the sea to the island of Ireland (as everybody seems to be calling it these days???)  Imi xxx

I opened mine and found this wonderful card and two beautifully wrapped mug rugs:

I made myself take off the lovely packaging, and found these two gorgeous mug rugs, which perfectly match the colours in my sitting room!  (How did you do that?   ><  ;) )  And yes, those are acorns in the corners.   :D

Many, many thanks @hernibs  :*

Thank you @Celia. It's beautiful.  :hug:
