Finally-- Some Pictures

Finally-- I am posting some pics. Most of these have been on my camera for a while. I still have to take some pics of the giveaways that I won from the OWOH event. I received A very pretty journal from Joanne at
"ad libitim" http://joannethiemehuffman.typepad.com/ad_libitum/. She has a fun blog to check out!

And I also won an awesome little heart box with a darling charm and little pretties in it. Won that from Mary Ann at "Follow Your Bliss" http://firstborn.wordpress.com/. I have been enjoying her blog for quite awhile now. The whole OWOH thing was so cool. I found so many fun blogs that I never would have known about !










OK- so here are the pics!


These are some vintage postcards that I picked up at a new antique store in town. And I also got the Anderson's Fairy Tales book there. I just love them!

Here is the beautiful box I received from my swap partner Sarah in the Sweetheart Box Swap. Isn't it pretty? And look at all the great things she put in it! So pretty! Can't wait to use everything!





























And look at all the cool old vintage buttons I got from Charming Designs http://lauriescharmingdesigns.blogspot.com/. I am a button collector big time, but I have to admit that I love the roses she painted on the envelope the best!! If you have not visited her blog, you most assuredly should. I really love seeing her new creations. Her little birdies are just the cutest!!














This is my first weaving that I am proud to show off. I kept the edges straight finally! Thinking of making a purse out of this one. I just love the shades of green in this hand spun yarn. Wish it showed up better in the picture.
And my little grandaughter fell asleep clutching these flowers! Precious! Wish you could see it better, she is wearing an adorable little top that my daughter made for her out of a vintage pillowcase in the the prettiest pale pink! I'll have to take some more pics of that later and post.








Isn't this a great picture that my daughter took of the double rainbow we could see from our front yard?!
I mailed my swap package off to my swap partner
in the Pretty Little Nest Swap this morning. Hope
she likes it! It was a fun swap!
