Etsy Team Columbus Secret Pal Swap

My Etsy Street team, Etsy Team Columbus, does lots of fun social activities.  Check out our Crafting Challenge, and be sure to sign up for our newsletter.

But here I want to share about our recent Secret Pal Swap.  Its sort of like a secret santa exchange, but much more crafty.  You sign up and get assigned to two secret pals: one who you give stuff to, and one you get stuff from.

I just got my stash from my secret pal, Lenny of lcabanerodesigns.etsy.com just today.  Here is all of the coolness.







First, look at how bright and fun these fabrics are!  There was some really pretty red velvet and lots of great cotton prints.  





There was a whole box of buttons in the package.  Some of these buttons may become pendants for necklaces.  The vintage ones with the seahorses?  Very awesome.





This is very cool little art box that I can keep in my purse.





The funniest bit was this set of "vintage" Kellogg's cereal cards.  I might have to frame them.  Seriously.  Sugar Smacks is my favorite cereal of all time.  I have a bowl of it every morning.


Thanks Lenny!

I have learned so much from this site (formerly called EtsyMarketing), so I'm pretty pleased that today's blog post features one of my tips.
