Thank You Beki!!
My Brooch Swap from Beki came yesterday afternoon! My partner was the amazingly talented Beki and she did not disapoint! She made me the most beautiful brooch!! I just can't stop staring at it, it's that cute. I am working on a purse right now that I think it will look perfect on. It is good motivation to get the purse done, so I can put this beauty on it!
She also included a patchwork zippered pouch, which I LOVE, and a cute notebook, ribbons and my favorite-this itty bitty sack full of buttons. The sack was just so cute tucked in there like that. I'm a sucker for itty bitty cute things. Babies, puppies, little sacks of buttons...

My current project uses lots of buttony goodness so I am thrilled to have more. I will be putting them to use right away! I love that yellow one in front best, I think. What can I say? I'm a simple gal. I just can't help it that buttons just put me over the moon!


Now, everyone go check out Beki's etsy shop and get a cute little pouch or purse of your own. I have my eye on a few cuties there myself, better hurry!

*Can you believe "itty bitty" is not a word?? Spell check just dinged me.

I'm so glad that you like it!! Now that it has been received, I can put up my tutorial on how to make those flowers - I've been meaning to do it for ages, but it wasn't until I made yours that took the necessary pics.

Wow...what an adorable package you received. The brooch is lovely :)
I love little buttons and other tiny goodness, too. So much fun!

I find it hard to believe itty bitty isn't a word, too. Geesh. Spell checker must be wrong. :)
