This is what I made for Christy for Heidi's Very Vintage Halloween Swap. Christy wanted some kitchen things so I made her 8 cloth napkins with a matching potholder. Then I crocheted her a pot and towel holder.
Christy sent me these gorgeous cloth bowls and an Autumn Apron that will be perfect for Thanksgiving.
AwtemNymf sent me the cutest little witch hat and shoes wall hanging. A pretty felt witch hat that she embellished and a pair of super glittery witch shoes that she made. The hat and shoes came with a sign that says, "If the hat fits!" She also sent a wooden witch that the kids couldn't keep their hands off of and an expandable witch. The kids couldn't wait to put her in water. The paint cracks as she expands and then when you take her out and she dries out she is all pretty again. She also sent the Pez Jack-O-Lantern and an ATC.
Then a few days later she had a friend of hers send me this cute witch pendent from her Etsy shop. There was a couple pieces of candy included but the kids got to it before I had a chance to take a picture.
and for the last of the Halloween Swap I did the Debra's Halloween Moons and Night Flyers Swap. We had to send an Owl, a jointed paper doll and an ATC with a witch or owl on it. My parnter was Michelle. I made an owl out of some collage paper that I had made and put some big buttons on it for eyes. Then there is the witch paper doll and my ATC. I also sent her a little tombstone, some fibers, ribbon, buttons, potpourri, and a bag of Halloween goodies. This is the paper doll. I think she turned out pretty cute. I colored her first and then I used some cheesecloth that I painted and glittered to make her skirt and put over her shirt and hat. I thought she turned out pretty cute too!
I'm finally done with the Halloween Swaps and have mailed out or about to mail out all of the fall swap packages. Then we're on to Christmas.
