Two Wonderful Swaps

Some time ago I arranged a friendship

swap with my friend Hope.

We have been partners some time ago in a petite box swap

and wanted to do a one-to-one this time.

Here´s what it looked like when I

opened the parcel from Hope

all wrapped in my favorite paper

Old sewing patterns.

Inside was this beautiful dolls head

a big bunch of cabinets cards - Oh, I love them

a little jar with vintage buttons

and a tiny matchbox decorated with

one of Hope cute little nests.

She also made me this beautiful box

with another nest

and two beautiful glittered birds on top.

here´s what was inside

dominoes, game pieces, a sweet little tin box, pearls

and awesome vintage typewriter keys.

some german dolls (Hope knows I love those)

and a beautiful soldered charm with lace

Thank you SO much sweet Hope.

I love everything you send me.

Looking forward till next time ;o)

Remember I told you I also

did a one-to-one swap with my friend Lynn.

We wanted to do a Petite Box Fleamarket Style

in neutrals with a handmade to go with the box.

Here´s the beautiful card Lynn made for me.

Her box was SO beautiful decorated with layers

of lace, doily, fabric and a beautiful flower on top.

Check out the photos Lynn took of the box

before she send it to me.

She´s such a talented photographer also.

Here´s the back..

See what I mean....

filled with wonderful vintage lace and buttons

a sweet thespoon

and an awesome rhinestone piece 

This was inside one of the wrapped doilies.

How awesome is that

Thank You SO much Lynn.

I love everything - ofcourse I do

and I can´t wait to create with all this beautiful stuff.

Isn´t friendship swaps just the greatest.

I love doing those

and isn´t the blogging community the most awesome

and generous community of all placed.

I do think so.

Thanks for visiting

and wishing you all a beautiful day
