from @jillybeans:
Tins- one candle-sized, several whimsey-sized.
bear, immediately adopted by the 7yo w/ a cry of “aw, cute!”
But the real question… what does wedding tea taste like?

I have no idea! I think my mom drank it and it was soooo long ago. I like to hoard cute containers for no reason.

I also received from @jillybeans!
I had to take a picture of her packaging…I need to up my game there…I am lucky to find a box!
She sent the coolest spider garland…I love insects and can’t wait to paint these and get them assembled for Halloween…I have the perfect spot for them!
What’s in the wrapped package? The cutest stitched bird ornament!
Thanks for a lovely swap!

I received from @kittykill!
She sent me a pretty suncatcher and some washi (so sparkly! ), stickers (birdies and stamps) and tea. I’m looking forward to getting this hung in one of our windows and using the other goodies! Thank you!

I love suncatchers! They really add a little bit of cheer to any room or porch…love the ball at the end…I bet it makes patterns when the sun hits it!

My package from @Kwality570 also arrived…I love getting ATCs and little pieces of art from my fellow lettuce heads because I just love the different styles and textures…I was not disappointed to received an ATC triplet…well themed, well executed and just lovely to look at!
She also sent a cool masterboard for me to use (or, save!)…done with pattern pieces…how appropriate since I love to sew! Thank you so much!

I love that little bird cross stitch. Adorable!!!
Everything is so wonderful! I love all the little hand-made heart-felt items. You all are so wonderful. 
Also, @AIMR, I completely spaced on the date for my final claim to you. Today is my deadline. It’s been sitting on my desk, completed, for the past week. I will mail it after work. lol

Loving the gallery so far!
I made the mistake to forget to ask for the address 
Soooo… late here also. Back when I did this swap more often I started asking for the address right after I claimed, but I had forgotten about that trick. I might be able to send it with husband tomorrow and have him mail it before work. Today… was a day. Let’s leave it at that.
He’s coming with fun suggestions like ”Nooo! You can’t leave it unfinished like that, it looks ugly! Use -insert powertool here- to fix it.”
I did not use a powertool since that particular one is in the shed, but I did fix it. Then he fixed it some more and now it’s acceptable 
I’m wondering if I’ve done enough, but thinking back this has taken several hours so it should hopefully be ok.

Do y’all think this swap will be coming up again next month? I, um, MAY have started my own list…

I’m not sure… But you can still jump in this month and get a claim in…
I’d like to, but I’m in my first swap of the new site and I believe I have to successfully complete it before signing up for more.

Ooooh I just assumed it was 
my bad
Maybe I should make another claim? 
Finished my claim for kwality570 today! Yay! It’s all ready to be mailed out. Now if I would only remember to message people for their addresses when I claimed. Meh!

I finished up my claim for Kittykill and will head to the post office today. I also started my claim for jillybeans yesterday. I think it’s coming along nicely, but will be a while before I get it finished!
This has been such a fun swap. It’s my first time doing an Ongoing Wish type of swap and it’s so great to be able to claim when you get the chance/have inspiration strike.
I second the fact that I hope it comes up again! I will definitely do another round at some point.
