It has been a while since I participated in a DUST craft swap (DUST being a group of Australian artists, crafters and supply sellers who sell on Etsy); I think it has been over a year, in fact. So when I saw the latest swap being organised, I jumped at the chance to participate. And let me tell you that I practically squealed with delight when I found out that I was being paired with Mich of michvanetta and koot! Mich creates gorgeous vintage-inspired jewellery as well as pretty tags, cards and beaded accessories. Just look at the multitude of pretty items she created for my girls and me!
Vintage button magnets
Beautiful tags, stunning cards, a gorgeous doily and the sweetest bookmarks for the cheeky monkeys!
Since Mich is a fellow jeweller, it made sense for me not to send her jewellery, but to send some Domun Vindemia creations. She mentioned that she liked to host little get-togethers with other mums so I made a dessert stand and a bunting to add a vintage look to her functions. If you look carefully at the bunting I made, you will notice that the bias binding has been adorned with a strip of delicate, blue lace. Thanks Mich for the great swap and for inspiring this new style of bunting!

What lovely swap items Deb and Mich. Mine is just about ready to post so will be putting photos up when we both have our swaps. So much fun isn't it.
