I had such fun hosting my 2nd annual Fall Swap! You ladies are amazing and the creative packages I have been seeing (and hearing about!) inspire me to no end!
I could not wait to share the wonderful package that I received from my partner (and dear friend) Jill!
She made me to most beautiful wrap! On the tag she wrote, "A scarf full of posies to keep you cozy." Yep. That's Jill. Cute, creative and kind.:) I wore it to the fashion show and I cannot tell you how many compliments I received! The colors made me swoon...
Look at these darling tags! They make me giddy! Just think of all the cuteness they will add to packages. Are YOU worthy?;)
What could this be? A new amazing lipstick for Fall. What else? Recommended by the Pioneer Woman, no less. Yes, I wore it to the fashion show, too.:)
I have had my eye on this Happy Halloween book- by Country Living! Hobby Lobby sells them but they are sealed so you can't peek inside. Imagine that. Now I have my very own and can look and look all I want! I am now inspired to host a Halloween party at my house- Yippee!
And look at this glamorous Halloween "Boo" banner! Love it! It is hanging and ready for company. Jill- when are you coming for a visit?:)
Here's another shot of my gorgeous wrap. It is worthy of two showings- at least.;) Thank you so much, Jill! I am now officially ready for Fall!
This is what I made for Jill! A set of white pumpkins that say "BOO!
Napkins embroidered with the letter "A". I love that pumpkin color...
Freshwater pearl earrings...
A glittered acorn covered with a cloche and a blackbird tag...
wowza..you ladies are talented..lol..I'm afraid my poor swap partner got all store bought! Or..maybe because I'm a preggo slacker and am too "baby" minded right now :) ..hehe...cute stuff!

ReplyDeleteIt looks like I missed the Fashion Show post while I was out of town, but I sure enjoyed catching up on all the happenings of the Big Day! What an experience your little Katie will never forget. A.G. pulled out all the stops on this one. The photos were delightful and Katie looked so adorable. Thanks for sharing the special event with the rest of us. : )

Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hostessing the Fall Swap. My partner was great. Swaps are so much Fun.

Deb :)
Oh my goodness what cute goodies you received Lori...love the tassel...I have stuff to atempt to make one but guess I am just scared to try for thinking it might look ugly...poor excuse I know.
ReplyDeleteAs far as my swap partner...I still have to send mine out which will be going to tristen tomorrow in the mail...I am the worlds worst for being on time but I do send my package everytime....I actually am making something so hope she likes it...I saw some of these goodies last year so I figured I would try to make something instead of all bought items that I normally do.
I got mine from Tristen and love all my bought things as she stated...they are cute things I have them all out and loving the cuteness of more Fall items in my home...so she was a great partner to me!
Lovely stuff! It was a wonderful swap...thanks for my goodies & for hosting!!
