WooHoo is right! I entered my first Swap last month. We were to make a tag and, funny thing is, I have no idea why I joined the swap because I've NEVER made a tag. My sweet swap mate, Betty, at
She's Sew Pretty turned out to be just the nicest and best tag make ever. And many thanks to Sandy at
521 Lake Street Blog for putting the swap together.
Betty's package came and I was so excited to open it up, I forgot to take pictures of the pretty wrapping. Everything was carefully wrapped in pink ribbon and pink tissue. So Special!!! In our emails back and forth at the beginning of the swap I told her I liked the color purple. What a cute purple Easter Bucket she found!
And this delicious smelling purple candle went immediately on my mantel. Betty even made a pretty little tag for the candle. She's GOOD!
And how about this purty little eggs?
And this vintage hankie...........I LOVE violets!
And this cute pincushion was HANDMADE by Betty. Check out the CUTE details......Amazing work!
And her extra special tag................
Check out the detail of the little flower, the pretty green cutout paper, the ribbon....I'm SO impressed. I told her she got the short end of the stick when she got MY tag; but it WAS made with love and I can ONLY IMPROVE...LOL!! Thanks again Betty.....you rock!
We all brought a grapevine wreath, eggs already the right color or painted before hand, and a hot glue gun.
Vanessa found some really cute egg garland and glued THAT onto her wreath. And she SAYS she's not crafty!
Here is the finished product. 
After I got home, I added some ribbon for hanging, my little "welcome" sign and a little bit more vine that I cut from my yard.
Here's what the finished product looked like hanging on my door. 
And whoops, wouldn't you know it..... I've already had a few eggs drop off...but never fear, I'll get out the trusty Glue Gun and it will be easily fixed. Those high temperatures we had earlier in the week must has loosened up some of the glue.
