Description:

This is a repeat of a swap a few months ago..Krazychef and I thought it would be fun to try again!

In this swap we will have one partner and send them one altered thrift store item. We find something with "potential" at the thrift store and judging by our partners profile, we turn it into something they would enjoy!

Examples:

~A vintage pillowcase...fabric used to make an apron, tea wallet, shopping bag...

~A bunch of dominoes... turned into an altered art collage. Buttons....into fridge magnets, or jewelry.

~A vintage candy tin, turned into ......a pretty tea caddy for your purse. I'm not a tea drinker, I don't know why I keep mentioning tea ;)

~Gameboard...... into cover for a notebook, The classic....tin can into pencil holder or fill it with wax for a new candle.

~Vintage sweater...turned into flower pins, coin purse.... cell phone cozy.

The possibilities are limitless! :)

Okay, so one partner and one repurposed gift....sender's choice this time.
