Cara Box


It was an honor this month to be a part of the Cara Box exchange. I had the privilege of getting to know two wonderful ladies. Andrea, Shannon, and I were teamed up and I have enjoyed getting know each of them.  

I sent a box to Andrea and Shannon sent a box to me. Here is what I found when I opened up my Cara Box this month . . .




Our theme was "childhood". I shared with Shannon that I loved colors as a child. She was so creative. I was amazed to find pastels and a sketchbook. I never shared that I use to use pastels.

There were lemon candies to take me back to my childhood memory of visiting my Great Grandfather's farm. He always had fresh lemons cut for iced tea.

She included a wonderful mug in a blue color to remind me of the water. Also something that I love. I have always found peace in being near the water. The fun thing about the mug is she didn't even know that I am a hot tea drinker . . . and I just love a nice mug. :)

Last but not least was the beautiful card she included in my package.

I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to be a part of this months Cara Box exchange and to have been connected with two amazing women. I can't wait to do it again!
