Here they are all together! Trying to keep them all on the table was fun. The baggies kept sliding all over. Ashley and I laughed soooo much!
Again, thank you for joining us!
Have a good day!

I will give this a try. Have to do some thinking about the goodie bags.

Thank you for joining us ladies.
Please don't stress on the little treasure bags. Some examples are DMC floss, buttons, fabric yo-yos, little homemade magnets, little homemade felt goodies, vintage lace strips, a couple of homemade cupcake toppers, a couple of candy pieces, a tea bag, etc.
Let us know if you have any questions.
Have a good day!

This sounds so fun, I can't pass it up. Please sign me in if you still have room! My mind wheels are turning about those baggies. Do we need to put our name on them somewhere, or not? This is exciting! thanks!

Hi girls - my bags are filled and ready to have toppers attached... I have been loving every minute of this!!! I'll be working on my "stocking/holder" this weekend, and hope to have it in the mail to Michelle and Ashley by Monday, weather permitting, of course! :)
Thanks again for hosting such a great swap - I've been so inspired by this one! Hugs - Nini

I finally got all my bags completed and plan to mail the package out to Michelle and Ashley this afternoon after work. I must say it was fun putting the bags together.

My goodies are packed and I'll be mailing them tomorrow or Thursday depending on when I have time to stop by the post office. This has been such a fun project so far, and the best thing is there are still more surprises yet to come! Thanks for hosting this swap!

Mine are done, girls, I just haven't been able to get to the Post Office due to the weather... I'm going to try in the morning, but they're calling for even more snow and sub-zero temps... I'm so sorry! I'll get them out asap, I promise! Do you want me to post pictures??? I feel so bad! - Nini

No problem Nini. Keep warm. I will post a sneak peek when it arrives, that way you know it made it safe.
Have a good day!

Thanks, girls... The weather ended up just being sub-zero, no snow - yet - thank goodness! But my son came down with the flu, and my DH is working today so I still couldn't get out to the Post Office. I'll try Monday! :) Thank you again! - Nini

I have my baggies ready to head to the post office, but **wail** they are not anywhere nearly as beautiful as the pics you posted!! I did have fun making them tho, and my daughter, (5 yrs) got into the spirit and helped put them together. We decide to share the baggies we get, and she is hoping for candy. Lots of it! =) So I hope you aren't too terribly disappointed, and we are looking foreward to the package. Happy day to you all! -emily-
