I participated in a shabby chic jar exchange last year ... and i have never posted about what i sent ... so here it is ... goodies i collected and sent my swap buddy Sue.
I added some pretty vintagey looking ribbon
and some vintage spools wrapped with seam binding and ribbon and bakers twine
added some little bags of goodies
painted and aged some little frames and filled little vintage shakers with glitter
added some metal embellishments that i aged and painted
some little stork scissors and jewelled trim
a little envelope with tea bags, tied up with a vintage spoon
I made a pretty little flower for the top of the jar
and voila! what fun!
I'm linking up to Cindy Atkin's Oh-La-La link party ... come join in the fun!

That is nifty! I love all the stuff you put in the jar. I just love bowl fillers in general. I made rosettes from old hymnals pages and used those mixed with pine cones, seashells, foun feathers, wine corks, cool looking rocks and so on. ~Ames
