Well good afternoon friends. I've finally made it back to the blogging world after major computer issues. My laptop had to go back to Dell for some doctoring & it seems like I have been gone forever. I've been using my son's computer to do quick checks on all the blogs I follow, but haven't taken the time to comment. I was usually being rushed to get off, so I did some quick reading & that's about it. I've missed a lot though.
It's been crazy here as usual. I missed out on showing you all my Halloween decorating, so I'll show you just a few things today & the rest will have to wait until next year.
I participated in a Harvest swap over at the Pickled Pepper Patch & I got a wonderful partner. I was so excited when Char said Kerri at The Calico Rabbit would be my swap partner. I love her blog & she creates the most wonderful goodies. My computer went into major malfunction before I could post pics of the wonderful goodies she sent me, so now that I'm back, I would LOVE to share what she sent me. The top pic is what I saw when I opened up my huge package. Notice the card~beautiful (even though I'm showing it to you with the pumpkin upside down). Another view of the card is below along with some wonderful smelling potpourri.
A wonderful fall swag...
Heavenly smelling putka pods~mini pumpkins.
A handmade (and her own design) acorn & leaf wool pocket.
An awesome Harvest sign...
5 little pillow ornies/tucks. I love these & was secretly hoping for some of these. To make your own, Kerri has a wonderful tutorial on her blog for making these~just click on her blog name at the top of this post.
A wonderful & very large pantry cake she made. It has a fall leaf on the top & I love it!!
And last, but not least, she sent my this yummy smelling candle.
Now here are the goodies in my home.
Thank you so much Kerri!! You were a wonderful swap partner & spoiled me rotten!!
I also wanted to show you this spooky Halloween display near our home. These guys went all out!!
So glad to be back, but I must say good-bye for now. I'm off to work. Enjoy the day!!
Hugs~Becky
