There is a bag of candy corn, (which my DH has already confiscated). Hmmmm, how does he know there is candy in the house?????. There is a candy dish, (now I must get more candy to put in it),and a wonderful yellow mug and a couple of tea bags. My Dr says I can only have one cup of regular coffee or tea a day....but he didn't say how big the cup must be....te he te he. Love the mug!! OH, there is a Halloween sign, a Trick or treat card, some cupcake papers, a Happy Halloween sign and a bunch of candy bag(just what I needed for my Grandson's party at school). And best of all...a jar of homemade vanilla spice peach butter....yum..... This box is awesome. I am over whelmed. Thank you so very much. Rhonda you are the best!!

I know that I am so late in responding to this. Kind of like I was late in sending your box. I was so hoping that you received it and that it made it before halloween. I'm glad you enjoyed.
Thank you for the fun box that you sent. I just took my fall decorations down today (notice a theme?...I'm always late) and was happy to have the ones from you included. :) Thanks again.

Remember… Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body. Instead, you should slide in sideways, glass of wine in one hand and chocolate in the other, in a body thoroughly used up, worn out and screaming “Woohooo! What a ride!”

Diana, the box arrived today. Everything is wonderful, thank you!

It was a wonderful basket. I took pictures but when I down loaded them on the computer I can't find them.. I will have to hunt for them or do it again.
Thanks so much...

I came home last night from a conference and sitting on my table was a nice large package from Star!...It arrived Star....
I love everything you put into it and there was so much.. I just love the towel and pot holder mitt. The napkins and decorations and baking cook book and other stuff and I am going to post the picture as soon as I get it down loaded on the computer. I loved getting the newpaper also.
It will be really soon. Thanks so much Star.

Hi Pam!
I loved each item you selected for my box. Each item broaden my smile. And I had to chuckle, when I seen the owls. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. I am off work next week to enjoy our county fair and will enjoy decorating my home with my new goodies. I greatly enjoyed being partnered with you again. Wishing you the best of the Fall season....

I received my basket from Ruthie this weekend, it is great! She made a scarf for me and included two balls of yarn so maybe I will be able to learn how to make some fingerless gloves out of it. The socks with bats are cute and I will enjoy the coffee and teas. The cat quilt will be fun to make. What a great collection of items, I am going to enjoy all of them. Thank you so much!!!

Hi Diana,

I just opened your box and the Fall Basket is great! Thank you so much for all of the thoughtful little gifts. I was decorating for fall and Halloween today (my son comes home from college next week and I want to have the house festive when he arrives), and the goodies you sent are now scattered around my house : ) I absolutely love the vintage hankie and leaf pin! I think that vintage hankies might just be your trademark! The leaf-covered basket is a cute idea and I've put it out to hold fall cards that come in the mail. It was so much fun to be your swap partner again. Please take care and enjoy the fall. (I know I am...it has finally cooled down here enough to enjoy being outside)

Warmly,
Pam

There was the most adorable pair of googly eyed Halloween socks. Daughter keeps trying to make off with them. Pumpkin spice soap and amazing coffee/chocolate scented candles! Thank you so much!! I absolutely loved loved loved it!!
Happy Fall!!

Shelly I am enjoying it, I have placed the candy dishes on table no candy as my grandson's 2 and 3 years old would eat all of it. I put the salt and pepper shakers in my fall display in my bay window. They look great there with all the other fall things. Cookie cutter waiting for me to make cookies. Thank you again for everything, I hope you get your package soon. My hubby mailed it, I forgot to tell him Priorty mail and he did not send it Priorty which does not surprise me. I hope you will enjoy it as well. thanks alissa

I hope you enjoy it all.

Thank you so much Karen!!!!! The basket you sent me was perfect for my family. As we were going through all the goodies, my boys said it felt like a never ending basket of fun.

I really do appreciate all you put into it. Fun crafty stuff, decorations, cute things to wear, stuff for my kitchen and spray for my house(definitely appreciated with a house of all boys).

This was the fabulous box I received yesterday from my swap partner Deanna (Country Teacher). Isn't it great? The boys and I had so much fun decorating with the things she sent, we ate the candy while we did it and it was great! The candle she sent smells just like one my mom had when we were little and I love it...and I'm super excited about the socks because my boys and I have the same size feet and always steal my socks...but they won't be able to sneak away with these!!
