I haven't even gotten my stuff back from Kay's swap yet but I had so much fun I thought I would host a Christmas themed swap. I will follow the same basic rules as the other.
Swap is limited to 10 people.
Make 10 similar items each in the $5-6 value range that are related to Christmas. All things red, green, pine scented, santa, snowmen, knitted, crocheted, sewed, crafted etc, etc... Send your items to me along with 8.10 in return postage (2 priority stamps) and you will get 10 items in return (1 from each participant).
I will take sign-ups until November 1 or until I get 10. Items will be due in my hands by December 4. (Mail them by Nov. 27th) I will swap out as soon as I get everything.
Items will be sent in the 8.10 size priotity boxes so please plan accordingly.

Yay, my box got here today!! So, now it's Christmas in January! Thanks for following up on the box Julie, I appreciate it! I opened it, and the first thing that came out was the smell--from the soap or from the candle--I don't know, but it smelled wonderful! Then, the felt items--the little sock & snowman--so soft! The Swedish love knot went right up on my kitchen wall next to the cornstalk angel, and the painted pot went on top of the corner cabinet. I had to try on the apron, and then it and the Christmas bag, and the ornament will get put away for next year. Thanks everyone, no matter when the box arrives, it's like a Christmas hug from my farmgirl friends!!

Uh oh, that doesn't sound good, Kathy. My fingers are crossed that it shows up soon. If it never appears I will send you something again. Nance |

Am I still dreaming of a white Christmas (not!) or was I asleep at the wheel when we identify the unmarked goodies? I'd like to properly thank the responsible elves, at least on this thread! Thanks, Nance |

Ktknits - I got your package on Thursday. Sorry I didn't respond we have had family down and I didn't really get to be on the computer much until today. Your package is on its way to you. I'm sorry you didn't get it in time for christmas but you will have lots of goodies to look forward to using next year. Plus there are a few things you wont have to wait to use.
Jewelry, art, baskets, etc.

I got my box. My husband brought it in last night. YEAH!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. I realized after I mailed off my items that I did not tag them. Mine was on top of willowtreecreek although there were three fabric choices. It was a fabric item. Hate to say more than that in case you all did not get your box yet.
If you did not tag your item, please let me know on the board which one was yours next week (in order to allow everyone a chance to open their boxes). Thank you so much, ladies. It was lovely to have such a surprise package waiting for me. I can't thank you enough. We so enjoyed opening it, unwrapping things, hanging some on the tree and planning when to use the others.
