Holiday Polish Swap

In late October I saw a blog post about a holiday nail polish swap.  I decided it sounded fun, so I signed up!  The purpose of the swap was to spend no more than $10 and mail a nail polish and a card to the name you were given, and then that person would send the same to you.  It sounded like a fun way to get another person/blogger, so I joined!

The swap is hosted by:
Mrs AOK, a Work in Progress
Penny @ The Real Housewife of Caroline County
Courtney @ What's Up With the Wilhelms
Amanda @ Buckiddo

First, I went shopping for Emma, the person I was buying for.  I ended up picking the color "it's genius" by Essie.  It has a hint of sparkle and it's a shade of my favorite color, purple!  I also threw in a cute little nail file.  I hope Emma liked it!

Let me tell you, I was super excited when my envelope showed up in my mail box!  This is what I found when I opened it:



Emma obviously went above and beyond and got me TWO pretty nail polishes, nail decals, and a nail file!  I LOVE the polishes!  I painted the purple on my toes (purple is my favorite color so this was perfect) and the pinkish color on my nails and I love them both!


This was such a fun idea and I'm so glad I decided to participate.  I look forward to following Emma's blog, Miss Print, and getting to know more about her.  If you ever get a chance to participate in something like this, you should definitely do it!

  5. Yay! I'm glad you liked everything. PS the purple nail polish has an emery board and nail polish remover pads in the bottom--the black part unscrews from the bottle.
