I'm glad that you liked everything, Banga!  This swap is always really fun to craft.

I got my package from Retrolola tonight. She sent a bunch of great stuff. 

A nice fluffy and comfy pillow



A purse with the cutest cat applique.


A cool lamp kit, a little pumpkin man for my collection of tiny things, and a set of cool black cat towels.



Thanks Lauren. I love everything!

That's a great package, kittykill. I love what you did with that owl pattern. I never would have thought of such a great way to display it. The shrine is very nice too. 

And the pillow and purse are so cute, Retrolola. I love the little pom poms on the pillow.

Thanks! Awesome stuff!

And now I have a package of my own to share. I received from amarylisroze today. I was so excited to take pics, but then I had some trouble with the site, then I had to charge my camera. So sorry for the late post but here goes:

First, here's the group shot, a witch mannequin, a black cat noisemaker, and an awesome shrine:



Here's a detail of the mannequin:



She's wearing a lace shawl but underneath is a spiderweb design. Every detail is perfect.

Here is a close up of the black cat noisemaker. This looks like a vintage collectible:



It rattles to keep the spooks away. lol

Then there's this altered art shrine:



She makes it look so easy, but I know it's not. 

Thanks for everything, amarylisroze. I'll be spending Friday decorating my office with my new goodies.

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome stuff! That shrine rocks!

That shrine rocks!

I couldn't agree more.

I like that noisemaker!  What's on the inside to make it rattle?

[amaryllisroze]

I used some plastic pellets that I found...I think they're used to weight down dolls and stuffies maybe?

Mellifluous, if you push up from under the skirt it might fluff it up a bit. Or turn the whole thing upside down and give it a twirl or shake. (the shawl isn't attached) It looks like it got a bit smooshed in shipping. I though the bag I put it in was a good idea, but maybe not.
