The event was a stationery swap hosted by Alessa of Life After Breakfast and it was held on August 10 at the Pipino/Pino Resto * Bar. There were 40 attendees in all and I met a bunch of crafty people who are incredibly talented, I actually felt sorry for the stationery sets that I made. Haha!
Let me show you first how my handmade stationery set looked like, else, you’ll be disappointed when you the see others first. Haha! The first photo is what’s included in my set plus plain colored envelopes (not in picture) and the second photo is how I packaged them using a brown paper bag, a paper doily, and baker's twine. I used rubber stamps to label them.
Now, onto the craft soirée… here are some photos from the event (sorry, I took very few shots).
Names of the participants in our group....

Souvenirs from the event were a bag, temporary tattoo and a sticker sheet...

The event started with an introduction by Alessa then we introduced ourselves one by one and said a little something about the stationery sets we made. After that, we distributed a set to each of our group mates, except for Alessa who has a set for everyone. So, we all gave away 10 sets and received 10 sets as well. Happy, happy me!
It was a really fun event and I’m looking forward to more craft soirées in the future. I promise to try to be more creative next time. I heard that the next one will be a jewelry swap… hmmm… will think hard about it as I don’t really make jewelries… but I can try… we’ll see.

P.S. I've posted individual photos of the stationery set I received on my Facebook Page.
