I was looking for a fun Christmas swap on instgram to do and saw this one going on in England so thought I would host one here.
On December 1st. I will draw partners at which time you will have until December 17th to either make a gift for your partner or put together a small package. Spending should be no more than $10.00. Let's bring a smile to someone's mailbox this busy season since moms and grandma's always think about everybody else than themselves this time of year.
Here are your partners for this swap. Please contact your partner for their address. Please make sure you mail by December 17th, so these arrive before Christmas.

I just went and checked the mail box and there was the package from you Joyce. What a lovely idea - days of the week tea! I do love my tea, and now I have a whole lot of new varieties to try and such a cute idea for hanging them up. Thank you so much for being my partner.

Thank you so much for your package! I didn't get any pictures since the kids were "helping" me unwrap it. LOL Lady Grey/Earl Grey are my favorite kinds of tea! I am definitely taking some time to enjoy!

Julie! my second box came today! Oh I feel so bad for you having to send it twice, since the other one showed up! But OH! I love it all!! My granny had an apron almost identical to this one. I picked up this book several times to buy it and once forgot to go back and get it! Those Santa socks are super soft!! The card is beautiful! I love my Christmas Cards! Lily June will love it! All my Christmas cards are taped on all the windows and doorways in my dinning room! Is that sweet Annie in the hankie pouch, did you make that? it is adorable!! Thank you so much!!!  I have been in the kitchen all morning cooking cornbread and making candy and opening Yesterday's mail, what fun it was opening your package!!
Farmgirl Hugs! Connie

Patsy, hope you enjoy. It's killing me to wait on yours. It's right by the light cord so I see it every time I plug and unplug the lights.

I got my box today. Thank you so much! I love the shawl you knitted - perfect color! I love the rooster cutting board, the Christmas scene in a salt shaker that you made, the nutcracker ornament, and the Christmas card. Thank you so much. I'll post a picture tomorrow.

Thank you Julie!! Great minds think alike! I wanted some fingerless gloves forever!!     some nice hand made ones, not those thin ones for sale in stores. Lily June will love her things and I love that sewing bag and that music box. My mom has a music box lily June begs to play with it but its heavy! She loves to wind it up. She is gonna love this one too!
I typed in the tracking number and it looks like it got here Dec 6th went back to Fargo and came back again! With all the packages this time of year, it's not a surprise, but I'm sorry it had to be our swap! For as far as the box went and came back, everything was perfect!!!
Hugs! and Thank you so much!!

Your package will be in the mail tomorrow....sorry for being a slacker! I'm a music teacher and the past two weeks have been crazy with school and church programs and I just didn't make the post office before it closed! I apologize! It's boxed and ready to go tomorrow!
