milkweed ornie

I have been down and out with bronchitis for the last 8 days.

Today I FINALLY felt better and decided to do some quick crafting. Here is my "seedpod" ornament. I was inspired by Green mama's but added a little acorn fairy

the 'seeds' are actually stems cut of some whole cloves...the ornie is cute AND smells good!

Doris Made my Heart "Leap"!

Thank you Doris for such a wonderful package!

The crocheted froggie ornament has a cd on the inside,

 which I think is very cool!

Doris also sent some pretty little tealight candles,

 a cupcake notebook and some coffee.

Finally,

the cute frog hat....isn't it adorable?!?!?

and yes....

I did wear

the frog hat all day Saturday.

Thanks Doris!!

The Prince

Here are all the frog prince's from Jill.

 The frog prince ornament is so pretty and detailed with its charming ribbon and bow hanger. The frog pin cushion is so cute, with magnets on the bottom so it will be sure to stay where I put it. The green frog color sewing tin already has lace and trim in it from Jill. I have opened and eaten most of the frogs in the candy bag. A frog stapler is just too cute. And frog fabric. And frog colored note cards. I have invented the new color of the week -- frog color.

Thank you Jill for my frog prince.  

Frogs from Gin

Frogs, frogs, frogs! Gin sent this froggy prince package to me. It arrived on Friday after a busy week at school so it was a great way to end the week! My daughter quickly scoffed up the puzzle and hung the appliqued froggy hand towel in the bathroom. The fabric has frogs, turtles and says nature. How perfect, right?! I thought so too! It has been set aside to wash/dry before we use it for a future project. And the ornament, you ask? My new frog prince ornament, complete with a crown and royal cape, is hanging on my YOE tree. Thank you Gin!

The prince

Thank you Jill.

Mermaids

So our sweet little coordinator, Val, who is in charge of numerous swaps and i am sure crazy busy, went out of her way and sent me a beautiful mermaid package. It arrived last week and it is beautiful.

   

Candles,bracelet, seeds and more....

 Look at all the goodies she sent. I LOVE the anchor buttons and the herb labels...you know me so well!

Look at my beautiful ornament. I cant wait to hang it on my christmas tree this year! Thanks Val for making my day!
