Annemary, I received your package today! I'm sure I have not quit smiling since I opened it. Such treasures! The decorated carton is so pretty I plan to leave it just as it is. It will be fun to pull it out next year. Now, I know I will put up the Easter trees with so many new pretties to hang on them. (carrots, blown glass eggs, terra cotta rabbit (he/she is a cutie). Ribbons, buttons, soap,lip balm, magnet, note pad, collectable stamps, thread on a wooden spool, a beautiful Spring pin, a Ty duck named Quacks, and chocolate; Oh, my! Wow! And, then I said it backwards..Wow! Thank you! So very sweet and thoughtful! (I e-mailed you.)

Judith (forgetmenot),
I'm so glad it arrived today and that you enjoyed all of the little items that I tucked inside. I really had a fun time putting it all together and it makes my super happy to know you had fun opening all of your eggs and looking at the little "treasures".

What Fun! Just picked up the mail..and, there was a package from "country teacher" Deanna! Thank you so much! The carton is so very pretty! Covered in lovely lavendar papers and tied with raffia..with a charm attached, and a cool paper flower! I loved the saying on the carton. So tried to include it in the picture. In the package were my very own pink socks, a button magnet, Deanna's recipe for Oatmeal Brownies, jelly bellys Yay! A yummy tangerine/ginger candle, decorative clips, 3 kinds of special teas, a bug pot percher. He goes onto a new pussy willow I am rooting. A country teached knitted washcloth much too pretty to use. Moose munch..I can tell you, I smell chocolate, and it won't last long. Little hanging sign tags. A hand crocheted pink flower, and a dragonfly hanging that says Live Each Day! I'm feeling spoiled again. I just realized I left the dragonfly out of the pic. It's already on my wall. lol. It's so much fun getting to know you Deanna! Happy Easter!

Oh Fairlee, I got my egg carton today and was so excited by it all. Did you make the bunny bag? It's adorable. The yellow ribbon was just perfect. I know I con do something with that, and cross stitsh naterial (how did you know I needed that to do a baby sampler for May? (my gf son is going to have a baby 4/28 and we are all excited. Any way, I had to taste a cherry right away and felt like a little kid again. My little GD collects bunnies and has already claimed mine (She thinks,) I'll use the buttons and brads. Thanks ssssssooo much. It was a fun swap and I appreciate all your effort. This was my first swap and the best part was chatting with you and making a new friend, Thanks for my egg carton. I loved it-esp the bag you made. Happy Spring. Hugs, Joey

Debtea2, I would have thought your package would have arrived by now. Since we're also swap partners on the Easter basket swap I put both items in one box. I'll have to look at my receipt, but I think it went out on the 6th. |

Diana I received your egg carton today! Thank you for all of the great stuff. I just bought an old shaker glass jar over the weekend to display my hat pins in and was wondering what to fill it with,thank you for solving that one for me. I already put the buttons,wooden spools and little ragballs in it. Farmgirl Hugs' Debi #1983 |

Susan,
I received your wonderful egg carton today. Everything is perfect! Love the carrot cookie cutter. I'm a bit of a collector and don't have a carrot!. Love the needle case. Did you make that! It's the perfect little case. I'll have to try to duplicate the pattern. I have many needles everywhere!!! Flower seeds and pot -I may never get to plant outside this year as we had snow in Michigan today UGH!!!! Hopefully soon. Love the crochet doilies and spring dish cloth. The spoon stirrers will be used in my tea, yum. My eight year old son is begging for the soft little lamb-it's darling. I needed a new tea ball as my old one got a bit crushed. Recipe cards are always needed as I share recipes with friends often. The little white bunny is hanging on my shelf in the living room. Plus some pretty eggs and sweets, too. It was so much fun to look at everything. You had some great ideas! I will take some photos tomorrow and post them for all to see. It's funny. I have three boys ages 13, 12 and 8. My 13 year old asked if he could open the box, like the carton was for him. They were just as excited to open it as I was because they saw me putting mine together. You made their day, too! Can't wait to share it at my Farmgirl meeting. I can tell you made some very thoughtful choices. Thank you.
