Thanks for the compliments!

I received an absolutely beautiful matchbox from Sherry! (Thanks, Sherry! I love it!) It contains some lovely little charms and ephemera, and a cute little chocolate bunny. Also included was an adorable pincushion made on a wooden spool! I took a picture that I want to share with everyone, but for some reason I can't get it to work. I have put lots of pictures on this site, so I don't know what the problem is, now! Anyway, I will keep trying. Thanks, again, Sherry! Maggie

That is cute. You know when I signed up I had no idea what to do. Now that I am seeing them, I realize we all had fun being creative. I plan to mail mine Wednesday.

Beautiful, Sherry.

Like you, Marilyn, I wasn't sure at first. Mine is almost done and ready to send out.
I received mine from Lisa today. I love it. I'll take a picture and post tomorrow.

What a pretty matchbox, Sherry! You must have used the larger one. Love that pin cushion too.

Here is the matchbox and cute set of 4 Easter Coasters Lisa made for me. I love the little chick on top of the box and the Easter grass and jelly eggs inside. Thanks so much, Lisa.



Your matchbox will go out on Friday.

Thanks everyone, the matchbox is really a medium size one that I got at Christmas. My granddaughter wanted mice for Christmas(stuffed ones) so I ordered some ( you had to buy 12). So when I got them I took them all out of the cute little matchboxes and put them in her stocking and I ended up with all these matchboxes and it worked perfect for this swap, not to little not to big. Glad you liked your package Mary.

Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

Thank you so much...the bell survived and I've seen charms like that before I believe you can get a necklace to put them in, a floating necklace I think it's called, anyways im going to find one to put them in. Your summer vacation theme came at the right time after an above average Easter we are expecting 3-6 inches of snow tonight:(

Yes, that is what the charms are for. LOL! Just a little souvenir of Texas. I'm so happy you like everything - I knew immediately I wanted a travel theme. Just had to work it out. LOL!

Linda do you have website for the necklace/charms...would save me from searching. The bell will go in my cabinet with my cheesy plastic snowglobe collection...lol. Both my daughters travel a lot and other family/friends have added to collection.

LOL - I found them at my WalMart. They were back in the jewelry-making section of the crafts department. They had several sets. They also have the necklace that you can put them in. I know there are more out there, but not sure where. If I find a site I will let you know.
