I picked up the mug from the New Hampshire Institute of Art's annual mug sale. Since I started taking pottery classes I've gotten more aware of all the cool local art around New Hampshire. And while I have trouble justifying buying pretty things for myself, that problem does not exist when buying for others. I also picked up a few extra items based on what I was told about my exchange partner, Bethaney.
Here is a picture of what I sent to Bethaney:
According to tracking the package was stuck in Atlanta for a week after it was supposed to be delivered and I got super scared they had lost it. But fortunately it did at last arrive!
I received my package from the lovely Ashley of California. There were some struggles in ensuring that the mug was received and, despite the fact that tracking showed it as delivered, I had to make my way to the post office to wrest it from their warehouse of undelivered packages. But it was all worth it as there were so many beautiful things inside!
The mug even has a filter for loose leaf tea.

I've started using it at work instead of my old plastic one and it makes everything look brighter:
Thank you to the wonderfully organized Stephanie for all the work she put into this exchange and to both my partners for participating!
