Posted - Apr 24 2016 : 5:43:52 PM Hi Farmgirls...I know that there are many Colorists on MJF. So, I thought wouldn't it be fun to buy a duplicate of your Favorite Color Book To Date and your favorite set of colored pencils, gel pens or Water Color Pencils etc and Swap with a Farm Sister?
I have 17 different Coloring Books myself...but I don't like everyone of them...for one reason or another. After I get into it...I find I might do a half a dozen in one book, a dozen in another; you get the idea I am sure. BUT I have bought books that are Absolutely Fabulous with NOT A BAD PICTURE IN THEM. They are ALL Amazing to Color!!! Or only 1 or 2 bad ones. That is The Book that I want to buy for another Farm Sister!!! (I have about 6 of those kind...and NO you can't have mine LOL) BUT I would love to buy you one!!!
Colored Pencils are the same thing for me! I have found that I don't really enjoy using colored pencils...I Love Sparkly Gel Pens More!!! They are such Bright Pops of Color...and don't hurt my wrists when I color. I also love Water Color Pencils/with Water Brushes to paint out the colors. If you have never tried them...you don't know what you are missing.
OK...Sound like Fun????
When you sign up... if you have found a style you do not like to color please list it so your Swap Partner won't buy that for you. Example: I absolutely do not like to Color Mandalas or Pictures with little tiny repeated objects. So, I would not wish that kind of Coloring Book. Get what I am saying? I want you to Love what you get or it won't be fun for you. Same with the Pens and Pencils. If you have tried Neon Gel Pens (for example) and hate them...then I don't want your partner sending that to you! That wouldn't be fun for you!
Alright, Let's do Sign-ups from now to May 15th and then Mail Outs no later than May 31st.
*PLEASE INCLUDE A GIFT RECEIPT IF POSSIBLE*
Again, you will Simply be purchasing 1 Color Book/1 Set of Pencils or Pens to Swap with Your Partner.
If You have never gotten into Coloring but think you might like to try...you too can Join This Swap...you will just need to have good communication with your Swap Partner.
Are You As Excited as I am?
Let's Have Fun, Peggy

Thank you so much Peggy for doing the color book swap with me, look at all my lovely treasures I received.
A Spot of Tea Coloring Book, scented Gel Pens, I have a good sniffer, they all smell yummy especially the pineapple pen. Cow Stickers for me to add to my Farmgirl letters and a box of Colorful Blessings, colorful messages to bless a heart, soothe the soul and calm the mind. You color a Blessing card and send it with your letters and cards to Farmgirl friends, family and pen pals.
Peggy you always find the most unique gifts, thank you too for the very pretty card with your personal touch.
I think the next time we do this swap we should color a page in the color book we send to our swap partner and sign the page of course! What do you think of that idea?
Thank you again Peggy, I always enjoy our swaps together, you package will be to you this week!

Posted - May 05 2016 : 1:30:13 PM I'm glad you girls can swap! Enjoy it! I actually haven't done much coloring in the last month . . been trying to get outside projects done such as gardening, mowing, weeding, working on the glamper trailer, etc. We'll see . . . it may not be until our glamping trip in June, when Robin comes up, before we get any more coloring done! But, that will be a good time to do it for us! CJ
