easter swaps

  Hello hope you all had a great Easter , its the end of our first week off  and what a busy week its been

 I'm here to blog about my  Easter Swaps  I took part in  on instagram  , they was set up by the lovely Jackie  @ hunnypothouse
#springmakesmesingcirlceswap   this is how it worked   because the swap is a circle you send a gift to a different  person and you receive a gift from someone else  I was  paired up with the lovely Vicky  , who I already knew from twitter so it was a pleasure to send her  the gifts , the rules are you can make or buy up to 7 items  along the theme spring  and you  don't let that person know they are to receive gifts from you its like secret Santa   , they send  spring gifts to another person and so on and we all open on the reveal day , my swap came from the lovely Emma   and  her gifts to me was  lovely  but I was naughty and opened before the reveal date oops ! , so here's what  I sent  to Vicky
 some  of the  gifts can be  hand made  so I sent  Vicky a designs by sazy b  beach  bag  , and made a crochet  bunny    .
 
Here's what  I got from Emma 
 cute  card

 the  candle smells lovely  and the children ate the  biscuits I also  got  a fabric heart .
 
 
 
The next swap was #somebunnylovesyoucircleswap
its run exactly the same way as the spring one  and I was paired up to send my gifts to Marci  so  I  made  a card and a cross stich and filled it  with a draw string bag full of  draw freshner I had bought from the range then stitched it  inside a felt bag  it smelt lovely
here's what  I sent 

  so my  swap partner  was the  lovely Emily
and she made me a cute soft fabric bunny  and sent me  a bunny mug and lots of nice Easter crafting things a
 chocolate bunny tho I didn't get a look in with the chocolate bunny my  daughter ate it   here's what I got  .




 I've met some nice friends joining in with these to swaps and my  ig followers has increased by  joining the swap   so id like to thank Jackie for all her hard work picking the  partners  xx .
