Altered clothespins are so much fun! I have a collection and use them as paperclips or magnets. I hang them from a curtain rod in the kitchen window to display them as well.

Make 3 per partner

signup ends: May 30
partners posted: June 2
mailout: June 13

These make up really quickly and do not cost much to mail. Decorate any way you wish but all 3 should be different. You will get in touch with your partner after I post on June 2. You may put magnets on the back if you wish.

Thank you,
Portia

Wishing for the country life!

Thank you for the lovely altered clothes pins, they are so cute. I'm trying to figure out a way to hand my aprons in my Kitchen and I will be including your lovely clothespins!!
Yours are on the way, you should be getting them soon.

Sharon,
So sorry to hear you weren't feeling well. Glad to know you
liked my clothespins. My first time making them and it was a fun
challenge. I am not able to post pictures so I truly appreciated
your posting a picture of the beautiful clothespins you made for me.
I thought you did an excellent job. Thanks again for being my partner!

hands, I give with my heart ....

I'm not sure if Linda has a camera, I took photos of the clothespins I sent her because I had never created Altered Clothespins before :)

Linda,

I received your wonderful swap package a couple of days ago. Due to health issues I haven't been able to post until now. Thank you SO MUCH!!!! I LOVE the clothespins and how you packaged them and the tucks are just wonderful, I am a ribbon and trim girl for sure, the butterfly embellishments are so cute, the butterfly stamp is very sweet, I have the small notebook in my purse already :) And thank you for the sweet card, you create some very beautiful cards (I remember from Portia's Valentine Card Swap). Thank you for blessing me so much, I can't wait to use everything! Thanks again Linda for being such a great swap partner

The wonderful goodies that Linda sent me :

Sharon,
I love the idea of using the clothespins you made to hang the
mini apron up as a decoration. Cute idea. Thanks again for everything
and the lavender soap smells so good!

What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart ....

I received your wonderful clothespin package today :)

Thank you for being such a generous swap partner.

Hi Linda!

I am so glad you liked everything :) This was my first time making altered clothespins. My honey makes soap and I just love it and hope you enjoy it too. The crocheted item I believe is a mini apron. I just thought it was cute. You could probably place it around a dish soap bottle or hang it with you new clothespins :)
I will let you know when I receive your pins, thanks for swapping with me :)

Sharon your clothespins were beautiful! I especially loved the one
with the dangling bead but they were all very pretty. Cute "Farmer's
Wife" card you made to attach them to. So sweet of you to include that
wonderful handmade bar of lavender soap (smells so good!) and the neat
crocheted item (is that to put around a bottle of dish soap?) I've already enjoyed the berryblossom white tea. Thanks so much for your
amazing package!

What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart ....
