{ hoop swap }

Who doesn't love happy mail?  One perk of participating in a swap hosted by a fellow blogger is that you get happy mail.  Another perk?  You get something totally cute!  Heather, over at "Life Made Lovely", hosted a hoop swap.  Fun, right?!  I was paired up with Lisa from "2Surrender & Serve" and was so glad I was!  Lisa is fun and incredibly thoughtful - I had a blast e-mailing her back and forth.  

Here's what she created for me..


Isn't it adorable?!


 Lisa even took the time to make a little hoop for Callan.  How sweet is she?!  I'll definitely find a place for it in his room once we get it painted and start adding art to the walls.


Lisa even sent me some left over fabric from her creative process.  So now I've got a few extra fabric squares to get creative with.  Thanks, Lisa!


This swap was so fun and I'm so glad I participated.  I just hope Lisa likes the hoop I created for her!
