Love your minty avvie BTW!
Yay, the Tiny Pony Swap brag thread has begun!! Wow, minercia, you are such a clever photographer! Did you provide the coin for size scale, or did tulagirl include it in the box?
Mad and tula, you both did such a great job on your boxes for ember and minercia. Kit Kats and M&Ms, yum! ;) The strawberry card and Wonder Woman card are both awesome, too. And those cute li'l ponies, accessories, and extras! The swap itself may be "tiny," but the joy it spreads is BIG. ^.^
Thanks for putting this together, Oneleo1 and minercia! :biggrin:
Oh goodness is it bad that I'm fascinated with the tiny coloring books and tiny crayons? OMG how cute! :frolic:

Wow what a nice box. Such precious ponies too. Pamplets are such a nice touch. Great job Stern!!
Oh and I love the custom...precious... :biggrin:
My box from Sternenstaub arrived yesterday, but it has been raining almost nonstop the past couple days and even at noon today it was soooo dark and dreary outside. Nevertheless, I promised a brag, so here it is (please forgive the bad lighting):I love seeing things from differnt countries :) Congrats on all the things you got :)
Sternenstaub knows I like cats, too, so she sent me a Katzen (aka. Cats) calender for 2013. Looking forward to using this! I also got a cute black cat figurine and some brochures showing me the beautiful area in which Stern lives:

Next, what I like to call the "cozy corner." ^.^ A teddy bear dressed up as a bunny for Halloween, which my daughter has claimed for her own, the tiniest jar of jam I've ever seen, a box of I :heart: Milka chocolates (they are delicious, by the way!), hot chocolate packets and a selection of tasty-looking teas to share with my husband, and mini Prinzen Rolle biscuits. I just want to hug this picture :P

Baby Surprise and bottle:

Baby Surprise represents me here, because Stern totally surprised me and made me a beautiful custom of Baby Sugarberry. She knew I wanted the real thing but couldn't afford her -- isn't Sternenstaub amazing?? And look at those teeny tiny strawberries!

Remember the grail pony that Sternenstaub asked us all about? Should she, or shouldn't she? Well...

So, not only am I the totally stunned recipient of Baby Cherries Jubilee, a beautiful and sought-after pony, but the rest of my box is absolutely incredible as well! Here is everything altogether. Still in complete shock!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Sternenstaub! You truly are one of the sweetest people I've met through the arena and am so grateful for your generosity and thoughtfulness, especially considering you've been so worried about your cat.
P.S. The brochures were very effective -- now my husband says we need to visit. :biggrin:
I'm glad you like everything!!
It was so much fun to make the Custom Baby Sugarberry - I made a few of them in the past and it's one of my fave customs to make. :)
I bought the same cat calendar for me - it was to cute to leave it in the store.
And I have the same box of different teas at home - will try it at the weekened.
Great to see the ponies in such lovely hands.
It really is an adorable set even if one of the spoons almost went in my poodle's mouth. The winger isn't bad off she is missing a tail, and her hair seems to have a slight trim. I might not even redo her mane since it's still in pretty nice shape. I can fix up her tail though and work on those wings a bit. ^.^
Oh my gawd all these boxes are so amazing, I'm really worried the one i sent isn't good enough now :cry: I did go over budget but wow, these boxes are something else!!! :faint:

I am so excited. I have been playing with my toys for a couple of hours now. ROFLOL....I am getting ready to open my lip balm. Everyone is invited over for slumber party...bring your swap box goodies...ha ha

Hee hee... that sounds fun, but also a bit scary, lol!! A bunch of grown women sitting around playing ponies! :P

ROFLOL yea I didn't mean it that literally...I just can't think of anything more fun then to sit with a bunch of pony lovers and admire swap box goodies...lol...when I say play...I actually mean hold and admire. Although, I would love to go back in time just for a day and be a kid long enough to play again. I actually miss my swing and running outside with no pain and not a care in the world. Would love to relive that.
@Lochness.....ROFLOL yea I figured you did, but just in case you didn't...I didn't want anyone to think I was a major weirdo ROFLOL...seriously I wouldn't want anyone to think I play with ponies..wink.....snicker....
Oh yea......I had this jungle Gym in my back yard and I would pull the swing up to the top of the jungle gym....to where I could only hold the seat it was up so high...then somehow manage to jump onto the seat while I was sailing down and up in the air. Mannnnnnn that was so much fun. My mother would watch me through the kitchen window biting her fingernails hoping I wouldn't kill myself. Never once fell. If I tried that now I would be paralyzed for life. I taught my friends how to do it and we would all take turns. We would also put circus music on and set the speaker up (I know I am dating myself a bit here as we used records)..anyway...we would set the speaker up in the window so it would blast in the back yard...wear some sort of dance wear and do tricks on that swing like it was a trapeze. Life was just so much fun back in those days. My swing was in a huge oak tree and my dad put it on a very high branch so it would swing really high due to the ropes being so long. He also put rings on the ropes so I could do tricks on it. He was the best dad in the world. I sure love him...its funny how little things like that bring a tear to your eye. You take it for granted as a kid and then your parent gets sick and you are flooded with everything they ever did that made you smile. Thats when you realize how much you actually did notice and appreciate things as a kid.
I hope my partner gets her box soon :cheer:
:cheer: :yippee: :dropjaw:
AMAZEBALLZ!!!
Great box Lochness, from the packaging to the extras, great attention to detail
I don't even know what ponies they are, but I want those & that candle... I can almost smell it :)
Great Pix Stern!
Oh Stern that is a lovely box! Putting the pony inside a little box like that is a great idea! ^.^
Very cool! Every time I think I seen all the g1 ponies new ones always pop up.
Thanks Lochness!
oooh snickers.. *chomp* *chomp* *chomp*

You know... I didn't even think about the fact that the sparkle pony had a jewel symbol, lol. What a disappointment to expect a diamond and get a pony instead! XD Although, in this community, ponies (not diamonds) are often a girl's best friend. :lol:

Totally lochness!
For the the longest time, my husband thought I used to buy a lot of shoes... he opened a box and saw lots of ponies :)Quote
LOL!!!!!
I have to agree with minercia... you did a fabulous job with these photos! I'm just so glad you like everything. I was so nervous after I received your amazing box and I knew there was no way mine could compare. I didn't send you a grail pony or a beautiful custom. But you are so gracious and kind. Your brag and your sweet words really made my day, thank you!!!
:hug:

Thanks. :blush: Baby Susie and Baby Katie are Best Friend Ponies. They were exclusive to Europe. There is also Baby Billie, a pink pony with purple hair and a rabbit symbol. Each came with a matching pet (which are super duper hard to find).
Sweetie - your box absolutely compare to mine and you did a fantastic job!!
The ponies are in super mint condition - like New out of package and esp. the Baby Seaponies are hard to find in that amzing shape!
Believe me - I got Baby Seaponies in other swaps before - and mostly they're in less good condition..
I own Baby Katie and Baby Susie (as well as Baby Billie) in Moc condition - and these babies were TOP wants I also wanted in loose condition - so you picked out the perfect ponies!!
Your box made me very happy and I'm in LOVE with anything!
You also picked out my fave candies and all other little details are awesome!
I put the Nessie magnet already on our fridge!!
And we tried the M & Ms Candle this evening - it smells very good - one of the best Candles I ever got!!
Thanks again!! *Hugs*
That is so special Lochness that you shared your ponies. I agree with you, I would spend a lot less just getting my own ponies too, but the swaps are so much fun. I really enjoy getting stuff for others. Its just a pony, rainbow, flying strawberries type of thing..whooo hoooo
Swaps really are great... it is so tempting to join at least one of the winter swaps but I think I better wait until after the new year. Are any of you joining? If so, which one(s)?
:cheer: I am glad you liked everything! It was a lot of fun putting it together, and once I found out that you are studying design, I had to get the Vogue! And I love Keira Knightly, she is so elegant!
