It had been a while since I had participated in a swap so when Stevie of My Art Canvas asked if I'd like to, I agreed instantly.
Stevie creates the sweetest things, like her prized birdhouses, using a pretty palette of aquas and pinks. She made the framed chalkboard shown above, too.
So many thoughtful details using vintage supplies.
But this pillow is my very favorite among the treats from Stevie. So cool!
I put together a sampling of treasures, both tinkered and collected, to send.
The generosity of bloggers is something that always inspires me.
Thanks again, Stevie! Our swap was a very fun way to celebrate Springtime.

Oh, you sure received some beautiful items :) :) :) I really like that pillow and the blue chair it's sitting on :) :)Have a lovely week, Elyse. Love and hugs from Oregon, Heather :)
Swaps are just so fun! Glad you were able to do one. I LOVE that new paper you're using- with the yellow. Or am I just noticing it since it's Spring? ♥
Such joy my sweet friend...parcels in the mail are the best! To send and receive.
Have a great week. xoxo
I still smile every time I see my sweet can and clothes pins and darling little doll (just moved her to a new place). I so enjoyed our swap!

Elyse this was one of the best swaps! It's so amazing how you turn soup cans into these gorgeous treasures!!! And the petite tiroir I LOVE, as all the other treats! Happy Spring!!! xo
Totally and completely lovely!
What a sweet gift! Yes, the moose poop flowers are so easy. No care at all! They bloom all summer and are the prettiest blue and purple I have ever seen. You are not far..I can always send you some in the fall. Once you plant them they spread! Just a warning! ;) Also, I picked up your mag/article! Nice work! I'm so envious!!! I'd love to write a nice piece for a mag too. A dream come true! ;)Alyssa of Boston Bee

Such a sweet swap! :) One of my favorite swaps was the ice cream themed swap last year with Stevie.
That framed chalkboard is too cute!
The gifts received and sent are so cute. I love your clothespins most of all..that printed paper with the roses and yellow background is sweet. Can't wait to see your next article!

Perfect swappy partners, you both made awesome things! I expect nothing less from a rockstar though :)
Elyse,
So glad to meet you! I am your newest follower. I was speaking with Keren from "Free Pretty Things For You" last night and she told me that she knew the perfect blog for me to see, which was of course yours. All I can say is she was right! I love it so much. I can't wait to go through all the old posts and see what you have been doing. Just love your projects, and am hoping to get a chance to get to know you. Keren says you are a wonderful, sweet person, and that is good enough for me! You must be just like her! I wish you continued success in all your endeavors and hope you will come visit on my brand new blog, "Ric Rac and Polka Dots". Now I have to leave to go to TJMaxx, since you told us you had luck finding some beautiful things! I'll have to let you know if I find anything! But I will turn off my computer first!! :)
Julie

Elyse, you are right, bloggers will do anything for each other, they are so generous. And when they send you beautiful gifts like you got, the wrapping is as great as the gift!
