Easter Swap!

This year I participated in the

Easter Swap

at

521 Lake Street 

Sandy was a wonderful Hostess!

I was paired with Marlene

a.k.a.

Miz HoneyBee

 of

Honey Comb Cottage

I thought I would share with you today what

I made for Marlene....

 A chickie in a teacup....
This was my first Spoolie.
I covered the spool with decorative paper on top,
then covered the center with ribbon and vintage lace trim.
The little teacup was a gift from another swap
but it just said to me 
that it needed to be with this little gal.
The grass in the cup is actually some vintage christmas garland 
I found on one of my thrifting trips.
I thought making her a sweet little shawl gave her an added bit of whimsy.
I placed her inside the German egg container in the background.
Hoping to find more of those in the future.

I then stuffed the box with lots of goodies!
A strawberry container with

a pretty crocheted doily,

some Cath Kidston cupcake wrappers,

buttons and trims,

a glittered up pink birdie,

some vintage playing cards with bunnies and chicks and lambs,

and a few more surprises.

I also included the pretty paper straws and some napkins

to sweeten up an Easter snack.

There were a few more things I didn't photograph

but you get the gist.

One little chocolate bunny  made the trip too.

I had a lot of fun getting to know Miz B through her e-mails.

I hope she starts to blog more because she has a lot to offer!

I can't wait to share with you tomorrow

what she sent to me!

Hope you are having a blessed Good Friday.

We are off to bake Crescent rolls

and dye some Eggs!
