2018 STUFF A STOCKING

I did a search on past Christmas Stocking Swaps!

Beth Jones hosted this swap back in 2011. Then, Marie aka Churunga hosted in 2016. I am sure there were others but I couldn’t find them.

So I am ‘borrowing’ their Swap ideas with a little variation for the 2018 Christmas Stocking Swap so we can get ready for some Christmas cheer!!

“Christmas is fast approaching and what is Christmas without a stocking?!! Moms sometimes get left out of the stocking deal so let's make sure every mom gets a stocking!!!!”

2018 STUFF A STOCKING SWAP

Here are the Swap Guidelines:

1) MAKE OR PURCHASE: Either make or Purchase an 18 to 24 inch long, from heel to toe, Christmas Stocking and embellish it.

2) SEVEN ITEMS: List 7 items that you collect or would like to receive in your stocking. Each Partner will need to purchase or make at least 4 of those items; and then you can include whatever extras you wish. So everyone will receive no less than 4 items in their stocking.

3) LIST OF ITEMS: When the partners are assigned, look for your partners name and the things they like or collect and choose 4 of those items to stuff their stocking.

4) WRAP ITEMS: Wrap each gift and place them in the stocking.

5) INCLUDE CARD: Please also include a Christmas Card for your partner.

6) INCLUDE RECIPE: Please include a favorite Christmas recipe for your partner.

7) EMAIL: Email your partner for their address and send away their stocking to them....

DETAILS:
Sign Up Deadline: Nov 1st
Partners Posted: Nov 2nd
Mail Out Date: Nov 30th

I love this swap! Each year, I keep my stocking and open it on Christmas morning for fun. Farmgirl Santas are the BEST!

I am very flexible on what to include. Here are a few ideas, but really anything is wonderful because I love a surprise!!

Dark chocolate
Crocheted dishcloths
Little primitive ornaments to hang on my little tree that I keep up all year long and decorate.
Pretty yarn
Anything apple!!

4. I have a Scottish Terrier (so anything Scottie)
5. I Love Angels (especially vintage) but love them all
6. I Love Flavored Coffee's and Teas

Thank you Debbie for hosting this swap. Time just got away from me this year.

My colors for Christmas are blue, white and silver.

Ideas:

1) Nice soft, warm house slippers
2) Hankies (do not have to be vintage)
3) Tea (loose or bagged, I particularly like white tea.)
4) Small sewing kits (I collect these.)
5) A dish drain quilt (I currently just use a towel.)
6) Note cards
7) A beautiful pen

I can't wait to start making the stocking. I may start today.
