The day is finally here !!
A little bit ago I joined
a really sweet swap hosted by
We each received a swap partner
to send a Rosette to
and in return
received a Rosette
from another partner
that was kept a secret
~~
A linky party will reveal
all of the Pretty Rosettes
Please visit Jill to see all of the participants
I received my lovely package from
Oh my gosh
She decorated the packaging with little stamps
and it was adorable
This was what greeted me
as I opened the box...ain't she perdy!!
Kate made this special 'Mama' Nest charm
for me with two eggs to represent my two kidlets
Isn't she the sweetest
I am so excited about this fabulous rosette
it has a clip on the back, in this photo
it is already clipped to my hair
Kate sent me candy hearts and a sinfully yummy
scented candle called 'salt mint rose'
See that pink tissue...it is one of those fabulous
poms, I don't want to open it until I use it
Thank you so much Kate...I love everything !!
~~
These are the goodies that I sent to my partner
I made 3 rosettes of varying sizes
out of muslin and thought
what the heck am I going to do with these
so... I found this lovely lace edged hankie
and bought a pillow
(I know, I could have made it just as easily
but don't you love the fabric
and the color is just like yummy cocoa)
I folded the hankie
and stitched it to the front of the pillow
and guess what, I ended up with little pockets
unintentional of course
I added the rosettes and some leaves
placed a really cool pin at the top
and voila....pretty parlour rosette pillow
These are all the rage right now
I added a lovely rosette to this pearl headband
Such a pretty color...goes with everything
This is the pillow with the pockets
full of fun pink goodies for Leslie to play with
~~
Thank you so much
Jill for kick starting my Rosette obsession Look out...nothing is safe from
the Rosette embellishment
Have Fun at the Party!!
