A Sweet Swap!

A sweet blogging friend Marsha (Tattered Chick) and I recently did a personal swap.

We gave each other plenty of time to gather goodies for each other with nothing particular in mind.

We emailed each other with little tidbits and pictures of items we enjoy and were looking for.

It was fun to go treasure hunting and seeing if anything was on the list or if something might be fun to send.

It truly was fun to see what each of came up with ~ I was truly surprised!

Lets see what she sent me ~

I so loved the way she packaged everything up!

Marsha made me a wonderful wall make-do pocket holder for tucking special treasures in along with a vintage Americana postcard. Some wonderful vintage bottles and A Whisk Broom ~ which I couldn't believe that she parted with. (When we were emailing our favorite things to collect I had put whisk brooms on my list and she told me that she didn't think that would happen ~ because she collected those also ~ I told her that wasn't fair I sent one to her in our last swap) and she even put a crow on it ~ another of her favorites. This broom is going to be cherished for a lifetime!!!

Oh My ~ so Many Wonderful vintage sewing goodies ~ where do I start???

And all of them have found the perfect spot in my sewing room. Marsha even gave me a jar full of vintage thread spools that once belonged to her Aunt who was an avid sewer ~ It so touched my heart.

More of my favorite things to collect cabinet cards and vintage scissors ~ she so spoiled me!!!

Cabinet card and vintage grater with a red handle ~ boy she nailed this one ~ I collect vintage graters and kitchen utensils with red handles ~ Love It!!!
