In case you all haven't figured it out, but the scissors caddy is a potholder.  I got the idea from here http://www.caron-net.com/may02files/may02kid.html

I really like the way your embroidered up the front of the caddy.  It reminds me of lavender.  Very springy!

Here's a picture of the beautiful things I received from lady4feet!  There is a swap journal, hook roll, Disney princess box that was filled with stamps and marble magnets, and a furry monster pouch!  Thank you so much!

pot holder -> scissors caddy is quite an impressive reconstruction.

well my partner spoiled me with not one BUT TWO packages!! I havent had a chance to post the rest so here it is!!


 there is a super neat nintendo ds case (Im not sure if its knitted or crocheted because Im dumb and dont know the difference!!) and it had this oddly awesome hardness to it!! then a cute hair clip and neat wood bracelet, there was also a sparkly bracelet for my midget, but she snatched it before I could get a pic. And it all came in a tetris tin!! woot!! I LOVE IT!!

It included two zombie sock bunnies(so cute!), A bunch of hairclips, Glass Magnets with Legends of the Hidden Temple Team Symbols and Chrono Trigger characters on them(I don't have any of these magnets, I'm so jazzed about them), A triforce keepsake box, Chinese Lanterns(which I must use!), aaaand This lovely Legends of the Hidden Temple Stenciled Tee! Yay for the Blue Barracudas!




Thank you so much thegwenanobi!

I looked right at that tee and said blue barracudas. I was all about the Silver Snakes myself.

These are the things from Gwydion:

It's a hanging organizer, pen/paintbrush/small scissors holder, spirograph necklace and matching bracelet made from clear coated wire, a paperweight (with the same pattern--I'll have to get a better picture), a really cute journal with different scrapbooking papers on the inside and a charm on the binding. There is also spirograph/bead decoration that was attached to a bow (because she wrapped everything) that i'm going to use as a bookmark. And an AMAZING light box. She used an led push light inside and put pinholes around all of the circles, so it glows. I love it all.

A horrible picture of me in my great hat.


A closer look at the LED light box (we're using it as a night light--Or more accurately, the "light switch is across the room" light)

I totally forgot to include a list of the items I used to make everything.  The bag is crocheted, and I used acrylic worsted weight yarn.  My mom says that my stitches are real tight, which explains the hardness to it. 

I used the following items:
Beaded hot pad
plain tin
foam sheets
foam shapes
scrap papers (6 total, but a few were in my stash)
cookie sheet
magnets
frames (one was mirrored, one was small and plain, and the last holds 7 pictures)
beads and bobby pins (from my stash)
yarn (from my stash)
