Madeline, I received my mail art today! Thank you so much! I can't wait to use my new rolodex!
The Rolodex is made from an old book and she did such a cute embellishing job: .JPG)
And this adorable flower "vase" hanger is made from a toilet paper roll! .JPG)

Pennie,
I am so glad you liked the pumpkin. It was fun to make and the right season to get it all done in.

Thank you for the darling glass. Crafted from an old Glade candle jar, flower and button from a thrift store shirt find, leaves from an arrangement destine for the dump, blue ribbon from leftover scrap booking projects. Love the cute card too

Hi All :-) I received my reclaimed item from Sarah, yesterday & of course I LOVE IT. Thank You so much Sarah, I sent you an email as soon as I opened it. I just adore boxes. My DH thinks I'm nuts for buying old boxes just for the graphics but I do & I store all sorts of goodies in them. Sarah wrote that this is a letter box which is made from a chocolates box, the decorations are a vintage thread spool, raffia from a gift, paper scraps from crafting. She used a broken pencil ~ sharpened, leftover printing stock from her DH & the bead is made from recycled glass. Inside there is a place for tags or stamps ;-).JPG) .JPG)

Hi Theresa, Thank You for the solar lights.  How coooool! Love them. My husband thinks they are great also. He wants to know where you got the solar lights for the jars. I'm having trouble with some new equipment to post pictures. Will try and get a picture on tomorrow.
Thanks again and Farm Girl Hugs,
Brenda

Everyone's creations are turning out awesome!
I was wondering what everyone's thoughts are moving forward. I know the holidays are coming up, so I wondered if you all would want to keep going with this swap next month or if we should take some time off? If we do the swap again next month, what are your thoughts on making it a Christmas themed reclaimed item swap? Or should this stay the way it is and not assign a theme? I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Hi Theresa,
Our Technical problems have been solved and I'm finally able to post pictures again. Technically challenged people live here LOL.
These will definitely be used.

I love doing this, but I'm getting quite busy doing gifts for Christmas. A break would be nice for me, but please don't let me stop anyone else. This has been a lot of fun and I love being surprised with the things each of us makes. Hopefully, this Swap will continue on in the future.
Thanks for hosting it Sarah,

Everyone's reclaimed items have turned out great!
Thank you Brenda for letting me know what you think for the holidays, it can definately be a busy time for everyone!
I am wondering if anyone else wants to keep going through the holidays or if we should pick up in January. Let me know.
