After winning the Spring give away from http://vickichrisman.blogspot.com/, (how lucky was that??) I decided I need to have one of my own. I also jumped in and entered the swap world for the first time. http://www.artsymama.blogspot.com/ has a May basket swap arranged and I am excited to be a part of it. My swap partner is another fave blogger of mine- www.creativechaos.typepad.com, and I am every bit as excited to make something as I am to see what she makes for me.
Here is a preview of my gift for the drawing. I plan on filling it up with some more goodies, and still need to put a top coat on it. I just sat down to paint the bucket and the paint is still wet, but I do get ahead of myself sometimes.
So, if you’d like to have a cute little pink bucket with hand painted flowers on it and some goodies (to be determined) inside of it- let me know! Leave me a comment and I will add your name to my drawing.
The drawing will be May 15th. Hope to hear from you!
