Pink Saturday - Beach Beauties Swaps and Gifts

So sorry this has taken so long to post! I have to get on the ball and start being a better blogger. I have missed it terribly! 

This is my last post from Canada and Sandy's wonderful "Retro Beach Beauties" Art Retreat. I have tried to edit this post so many times as I noticed some pictures did not post. Finally today I decided to link to the other ladies posts and that way what I can't get on here you will still see.  It was such a wonderful time, Sandy spoiled us with so much I feel like there are not enough "thank yous" for her. The ladies all spoiled each other also it was just like Christmas! So nice to connect with all these lovely  ladies, what a fun time!


We picked a swap partner from the jar and exchanged gifts

Lu Lu was first and she got Sandy's adorable "fish"

Tammy got a beautiful pillow made by Natalea

Vivian received a pretty tote made by Tammy

I received an amazing bottle from Vivian

Natalea received my Beauty Pageant swap

Sandy received Lu Lu's Beauty Crown

Sandy not only pampered us but spoiled us with lots of gifts also






Sandy made us these cute purses all different and unique with vintage books and fabrics


Tammy was awesome to pick up our drink tab at dinner! So sweet


I gave the girls a wood dress form with some trims from Tinsel Trading to decorate it. I made little sacks and decorated to put the goodies in

    Hi Grace, Your trip to Canada sounds wonderful. Looks wonderful too. I know you girls had a great time together. The gifts for each other and the ones from Sandy are all so pretty and creative. I can't stop thinking about our trip to Claudie's last summer. Fond memories and so much fun.

    Thank you for sharing your fun time with PS. Your post is awesome.
    Love, Jeanne
