Handmade Gift Exchange

This is the 3rd time I have participated in the Craftaholics Handmade Gift Exchange. Twice a year, Craftaholics Anonymous hosts a Handmade Gift Exchange for readers and crafters everywhere. Participants make a handmade gift for another crafter with whom they are paired. This is a great way to make a gift.

I made this cute beach bag for my secret crafter, Destiny. I had made one for myself a few weeks before, and loved it. It is reversible, big, and has long straps! The best part is, its a 30 minute craft! I followed these directions from Something Turquoise.





In return, I received these "paper" towels that snap together! These have been on my list to make, but I never got around to it. If you know me, I'm kind of a recycle natzi, so these are a perfect way to go green! 



Thanks Destiny!

    Do you send your gift to the same person who made the one sent to you? Both great things!!

      Yup! I think it makes it easier to organize with so many people!

    I love the beach bag. The extra long straps were key this past weekend. Thanks so much and I'm glad the "paper" towels were on your to-do list! Thanks for being a great elf!!
