EMAIL YOUR PARTNERS AND LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!
It seems as if the year is passing by swiftly. I thought it would be fun to begin a swap for Fall. Rules are simple.
The swap will include at least 3 items...one for each of the 3 months of Fall...since most of us begin to decorate for Christmas as soon as Thanksgiving is over.
Signups will end August 10th.
Partners will be posted by August 12th.
Packages should be ready and mailed out by August 24th so everyone can have their things to decorate with as soon as Labor Day(September 2nd) is over(which is when many people begin to decorate for Fall. Try to keep in theme and colors for Fall.
Extras are optional.
If your package will be late for some reason please let your partner know.
I hope everyone has lots of fun with this swap.
Hugs!
Judy

Thanka you for your wonderful Fall into Fall Swap, Lisa !!!
I got several packages over the course of a couple weeks. I had fall leaves _ DID I MENTION I LOVE FALL LEAVES! (Likely to be used in my family history scrapbook.. raised in the midwest. Live in Texas now. You really got to hunt fall colors down in Texas) . And the last packaged arrived with a Host of Stuff.. INCLUDING HARVEST MOON PIE. Oh My. Never ate moon pies before. (Oh they're gone now, with the Harvest Moon last week). See attached... Spider web, huge pinecone firestarters, decorated large match box, orange hangy lights to decorate for Fall, MORE LEAVES, and a cute mousey fall decoration dressed like a pilgrim.. soo cute!! Ladies Enjoy.

Oh my gosh! I received the most wonderful package from Madelena a few weeks ago. I can't thank her enough for all the effort and I really enjoyed the emails the last few weeks
Madelena, I sure hope your weather cools down and you can enjoy fall.
Thank you so much!
For some reason I can not get the pictures to load on this post....ugh
I love love the magnetic fall leaves,they are doing a terrific job of covering an oversided, ugly, black safe that is in my entry way.
I will enjoy the crafts you sent me, a perfect time now as it is too hot to do anything outside the house. The fall wall hanging is FABULOUS love it!! Thank you for your generous gifts, it was such a treat to open the hand wrapped goodies one by one!
Happy Fall, Happy Trails
Kind Regards

I got a beautiful fall package today from Julie aka treelady!! I just LOVE it :) I would love to post a pic but I can't upload from my camera right now as we are in the middle of moving and the cord is packed :) Anyway - it was so much fun to open - the first thing when I opened it was smelled a delicious smell (yummy pumpkin soap!) and there were beautiful leaves everywhere - I know exactly what I'm going to do with them too - I'm going to make a wreath! I got a beautiful table runner and cloth - did you make them? and some more decoration crafts, which are all going to go in my wreath so I will remember her everytime I open the door this fall :) I love the beautiful leaf plate too. Perfect for fall goodies to sit on the counter :) Julie, your package was amazing and I loved EVERYTHING very very much! Thanks for being such a wonderful swap partner :D Joyce |

Your welcome Julie! I had fun putting it together - I would have liked to make something handmade but everything is packed as we are in the middle of transition right now - so I hope it was still special :) Hugs Joyce |

Joyce,
Thank You for my fall package. I love the candle and can always use a new tablecloth, towel and potholder. I haven't had a chance to sit down and look at the magazine yet, but when I make a cup of tea with the yummy tea bags you sent I am sure I will enjoy it. Hope you get your package soon.
Hugs
Julie

Darlene,
I'm glad you like your box! The google eyes ornament thing was something I saw on pinterest that was a big wreath so I thought I'd try it in a smaller size! No worries about the card!
Thanks for being a great partner!

Mary Sue,
The mail man brought me the most wonderful box yesterday. Thank you so much I just love everything. My new kitten (I just adopted her a month ago) thought it was perfectly fine to attack the adorable pumpkins that you made me. She thought it was a new toy for her! The pumpkin made out of the mason jar lids was so creative, what a great idea, love the plaque and just everything.
thanks again
hugs

Betty,
Received your nice fall package. Thank you for the goodies, the pumpkin plate, napkins and leaf rings, 2 little ribbon spools and 2 fall decorations. Yes, I did make the pillow and 2 pumpkins and the headband is a bookmark now! It fits nicely over a book to hold the pages. Of course you can wear it as a headband too! I got the pumpkin and leaf in a pack already like they are. Just added the recipes and magnets. Sorry I still don't know how to post pics.
I forgot to put your card in the package so will mail it out to you!
Be Blessed and Be a Blessing,

Darlene,
My fallness arrived yesterday even though it's still 80+ degrees outside! Thank you so much for the wonderful package! Did you make the pillow and the other 2 plush cushions? They are totally cute! I <3 the magnets with the recipes on them. I would have never thought to do that! What kind of paper is that, do you know? I would like to get some for my Cricut machine! I adore the socks and headband! They will be great to wear to school! I don't have a flag holder but I think I will take the flag to school and hang it up somewhere! Along with the paddle, it's a great school decoration!!!
Thank you so much for being a great swap partner!

I am so glad everything survived the mail, was a little concerned.:) Glad you are enjoying your box, yes I did make the corn husk flowers, and fall mouse. I think it is so cute! I so enjoyed being your swap partner, hope we pair up again in the future I have enjoyed getting to know more about you. Enjoy. Blessings to you.

Hi Danyel, I received the sweetest package in the mail today from you! I love everything :)! I have never owned a Cornucopia, now I do and I'm excited about that! The corn husk flowers are beautiful, did you make them??? The bow is very pretty and Fallish. The Rustic Flicker Candle is so cute - didn't have anything like that :).
Did you make that darling Fall Mouse??? If you did, I need to order some for my daughters, because when they see mine, they will want!
The Fall note pad is just what I was hunting today, trying to make a list, and nothing to write on :(! You fixed that problem for me - thanks. I love braided tablemats, that one is so pretty. The tea ball will be great when brewing the New England Harvest Tea - it smells very yummy! Thanks also for the sweet note - I loved being your Fall Swap Partner. I think you have been to my house, because you really know what I love :) !.JPG)
