I know spring is coming along with all the wonderful growth and beauty, but here in Michigan it seems far off right now. So, I'd like to encourage all of us, by suggesting a swap that gets us in the mood! Here's the fun and the challenge -- grab an egg carton (since we all know that eggs are a symbol of spring and all that it brings) and fill each of the 12 spots with a small gift. Sign up ends March 7, I'll match up partners, and mail by March 17. The first day of spring is March 20. Ideas for filling your egg carton: buttons, pins, seeds, canding, earrings, a sachet, a quote rolled up on pretty paper and on it goes. We have tons of creative people, so I know there will be no problem with ideas. Cartons could even be cut in half if there's difficulty finding an adequate shipping box. I don't know about ya'll, but this is egg-zactly what I need in the middle of winter.
Hugs from Karen
Follow your bliss! |

Oh Karen,
I love this idea. So creative. Please sign me up. Two partners if the numbers permit.
Have a good day!

Ooh! I'd like to play! I sure do need a pick me up. I keep getting teased by these song birds that keep singing around my house in the morning like Spring is near, but then I realize...Oh...wait...it's 5 degrees outside. LOL!

This sounds like fun, but I've never participated in a swap before. Would you girls be willing to talk me through the process?
Thanks! Luanne beekeepersgirl #691

Luanne - it's easy! You'll love it.... start by filling your egg carton.... a little at a time as ideas come to you... wait for the day you get your partner - email her and get her address and then pop your carton in the mail. It's that easy! You'll love it! I want in too!!
