Ok Here is my idea and if you think it is dumb, please do tell me.
Here are the partners. I had a friend pick them out and put them in 3 envelopes. So here we go.
Envelope #1.
Winnie and Ruth.
Envelope #2
Sherry and Marlee
Envelope #3
Carole and Darlene
How fun was that, ok it now time to wrap and send.
hugs
darlene
What my idea is that we make a 6" stocking and decorate it as pretty as you can decorate it with the season or holiday your swap partner likes best.
Then fill it with a pair of cute socks that fits the season if you can find them or just cute socks. Then put a few little things in it that fit that season, or Holiday.
This way the main filler for this stocking is a pair of socks, and maybe tea, soap, or be creative,
The main part of this is the pretty decorated stocking and a pair of socks.
Also maybe a poem or a quote from you to your swap partner.
What do you think? Let me know.
The swap sign ups will end Dec 5
Partners posted Dec. 6
Mail out by Dec.10
Hope you like it.
Have a wonderful Saturday everyone.
love you all, Happy First Day of November.

Thanks Carole,
It is going to be fun and I was thinking about the size 6inch stocking and that is a wee bit small so if you all don't mind I think a stocking of 10 inch is more in keeping with what I have in mind of stuffing for someone. I am excited about it too and Ruth so far everyone who has joined has gone with Christmas but it is up to your partner. Oh maybe we can all put a couple of things you like and color and such so they have an idea to with what ever they might already have in mind.
I'll start with funny or pretty socks, I like sunset colors, tea, chocolate.
Thanks for joining in the swap.
hugs

Our list is up to seven including me is there anyone else who would like to join in this Stocking swap with socks.
I found a cute pair of socks when I was up in Washington.
My stocking grew, I couldn't fit enough in a small one.
Hugs to you all, and Merry Christmas too.

| Ahhhh .... posted by the 5th? I'm late already! Okay, I always wait to see who my partner is so that I can tailor the stuff to her. So, I'm behind a bit since I've got to shop for that particular person. I have the socks ... just need the other goodies. I'm on it! |
