My swap items are ready to go into the mail. I just wanted to show the little extras I included.
I made another cute little zipper pouch and I LOVE the yellow zipper that I used. I think that just makes the pouch POP! I wanted to make more little odds and ends but I just want to be done with this swap so that I can move ahead on a few other things. NOT that I didn't enjoy this swap. Please don't get me wrong there. But I've done 3 potholder swaps back to back, this purse swap and a pin cushion swap. I'm kinda swapped-out!
I also included some hand cream, some grape flavored anti-bac, a cute lip balm from Yankee Candle. The holder, if you will, is shaped like a tiny little Yankee Candle jar! I bought 5 of them. Yes, I'm crazy. LOL! Lastly, I found these cute purse holder and key chain and I included those too.
I hope my swap partner is happy with everything as I am!
And since I was in a zippered pouch making mood, I made one for myself. I don't know what I'll put in it but this one is MINE!
Enjoy your day!

Hi Jen,
ReplyDeleteYou're right about the yellow zipper - it does pop! More than that - I L-O-V-E the fabric you chose for your own!!!
S.W.A.K.
Oh, I do love the yellow zipper and the pink zipper...super cute. You are right. I will have to start looking at colored zippers. Hmm. Oh, and I have lip balm in the shape of their jar and I remember when I got it thinking it was the cutest thing ever...5, well 5 seems normal to me! Cute key chain too! She is going to love this package.
ReplyDeleteYour swap partner should be thrilled Jen! What great additions to the bag!
ReplyDeleteGreat swap package Jen! And what a fantastic idea to use a contrasting zipper -- you're so right -- the colors just pop! I LOVE the little pouch that you made for you!
ReplyDeleteYeap your right about the yellow! I wish I was your swap partner! How cute! She is just going to love it all! I love the little bag you made for yourself too.
