The box was in the mail…
I received my Swappy Ladies’ gift yesterday from Leslie. WOW! she really outdid herself. Here are some fun shots.
altered jar, w/dictionary clippings:tinker & verve
a fun bag full of ephemera & vintage salt shaker full of buttons & goodies
pin cushion w/vintage fabric & embellishments
serving tray used as a magnet board: w/vintage buttons as magnets
It was obvious that Leslie had a blast putting this assortment together and I had BLAST opening it. Thank you so much Leslie – you have blessed me.
Another fun package in the mail yesterday was my autographed copy of…
Anna Maria Horner's brand new book ~ makes me dream about something to make my home-sick girl.
And I finished another apron using thrifted linen (yellow) and a vintage dresser scarf (cut in half) with the addition of some fun colorful Heather Bailey fabrics for a pocket.
Just tinkering around…
