More Swaps and Sneak Peaks, Oh My!

I wanted to share the swap items I received over the last week. Heidi hosted the Vintage Halloween Swap and my partner is Christy. Christy made this really cool fabric bowls out of some Vintage look Halloween fabric. When I took the bowls out of the box, Jace (2 1/2 yrs old) immediately puts them on his head and says, "Hat, hat, momma!" I have to admit he looks pretty cute with them on as a hat, but they got put up for momma to use for Halloween. She also made me a really nice fall apron. Thanksgiving cooking will be extra special with such a beautiful apron. Thanks Christy!!

Then for the Wizard of Oz Swap I received this wonderful swap package from Kathie of Little Cotton Aprons. She made me this Dorothy doll and the Wicked Witches shoes. How cool is that!?!?!? Kathie also sent some stickers, a little basket and some of the new McDonalds Wiz. of Oz dolls. I was trying to collect all of them and I didn't have these, thanks Kathie!! I love, love the doll and the witches shoes. They are so cool!!



Then for the Wicked Witch Switch that Genevieve hosted my partner is AwtemNymf of Faerie Wysperer. AwtemNymf sent me the coolest little wall hanging that has a black witches hat and her black boots. She also made me a little sign that says, "If the hat fits" and to go with it she made a cute little witches hat and some gorgeous black glittery. They are so cute and what a wonderful idea for both things!!! AwtemNymf also made a really cute ATC. I just started to collect ATC's so this will be a great addition to my collection! She also sent a cute wooden witch to color (Ezie claimed it), a Jack-O-Lantern Pez (all 3 kids claimed it!) and an expandable witch that the kids are dying for me to open. Thanks so much AwtemNymf for sending me such a fun swap package!!!

Thanks so much to all of you for the wonderful swap items!!!

Here's a sneak peak for Shawnee, my Wizard of Oz partner and my daughter Alexis' swap partner Scrappy Jessi. They are similar, but Lexie added a few of her own things to Jessi's. Of course I was running late again!!

I hope you both enjoy your swap packages as much as Lexie and I did ours!!! I also have the Apron Swap that I just finished, but didn't take pictures of yet. I hope my secret partner likes her apron!!

My Addiction, Swaps!!

This is the beautiful magic wand and extra goodies that Gloria

sent to me for Bella Enchanted's Magic Wand Swap.

Here is a sneak peak at what I made for Gloria.

It is going in the mail tomorrow!!!

I'll show the whole thing in a few days after Gloria has received it.

I hope she likes it!! I do!

For the Fairy Tale Swap hosted by Meridian Ariel

my swap partner Jill sent me

things from one of my favorite Fairy Tales,

The Elves and the Shoemaker.

This is a little wooden hand carved boot that Jill picked up.

Isn't it cute!

Jill made this Elf that she named Leon.

She also sent me a Elves and the Shoemaker Little Golden Book

So perfect, I collect Little Golden Books!!

Then Jill added a bunch of other Fairy Tale Books.
Mallory was in heaven.
Jill also gave me the pattern for Leon so I could
make some Elfie friends for him.
Thanks so much Jill! I love everything you sent!

Here's a sneak peak at what is going in the

mail tomorrow for you.

Then for Sarah at Gypsy Mermaids Life my swap partner Kelley,

sent me this wonderful Halloween package.

I got a cute glittery pumpkin with ribbon handles.

It is so cute!!!

Kelley also got some black long formal type gloves and stuffed them and added some ribbon. They will be coming out of something very soon., as soon as I start decorating for Halloween that is! Kelley also fooled the kids with 2 of the cutest faux cupcakes. They were so excited when they saw them and then so dissappointed when they realized they weren't real!

Ha!Ha! Sorry guys!!

Here is a sneak peak at what I am sending to Kelley tomorrow.

I hope she likes my package. I had so much fun making it!! It was something very different for me but so much fun!!!

Then Last, but definitely not Least is my package from Montserrat or Cocoa as many people probably know her. This is for Shawnee's "Where I wish I could have went for my summer vacation" Swap I, of course, picked Kansas. Cocoa made me this beautiful yellow apron with pink roses (my favorite color combo) and I think the blue (for the Kansas skies) just makes the whole apron pop!

Montserrat also sent me a calender to add my own photo's to, a set of Cowboy Notecards that she made, 2 close up photos of Sunflowers that she took and a huge package of Beef Jerky that the kids and Earl snatched right away.

Thank you Montserrat so much for all of the beautiful things you sent me. She also has the notecards and the photos for sale in her Etsy shop if anyone is interested!!!
