Beth- This was so much fun and I finished mine already!!Can you post your address so I can go ahead and mail mine in? I want you to look at what I did since this is the first time and make sure I did it correctly because if not, I still have time to remake them for the swap. Once you get started on making them, it is hard to stop!
Perfect! Thanks so much Beth, I'll send them out when I go to town this week :) This swap has been the MOST fun! maybe you'll do holiday houses/village next??? ;)

Sounds like a great idea to me!!!! Will do....Let's wait until about September to start it, ok?
Hi Beth! Mailing out my houses to you in the morning when I go to town :) I added the stamps to the inside after I packed it originally so they are "floating" in the flat rate mailer envelope and not inside the baggie with the houses :) Thanks again for this FUN swap! Sissy

Beth I forgot to put my labels on back of mine I think :( If I send you a sheet of them would you mind sticking them on? I'll send an extra thank you treat with them :)

Hi Sissy, I would be happy to do that and no treat is necessary!! You have a great day!! Smiles, Beth
Just thot about this swap....We will limit the number of girls to 20 as we do in the ATC swaps.. THE HOUSES ARE FLAT!! This swap you will make Halloween houses and decorate them for the Halloween season...You can make them about 4 inches by 4 inches and include a roof. the roof is not included in the 4x4" measurement. Mine are about 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide..Up to 7 inches tall (roof and body of house)should be fine..Any larger and it will be a lot more costly.. Please use cereal boxes or something of the same weight, card board, etc for the back of the house..Then use paper, like scrapbooking paper to create a Halloween house. Decorate them as much as you would like, but let's keep the gluing part neat...Make 20 houses and send them to me. I will attached them to hemp rope and you will receive in return a Halloween House banner to put in your home for the season. Let's make this a friendly Halloween village...nothing gory or anthing of that nature.
Remember to make them at least 4" x 4" and include a roof. Send them to me at the time and include 7 stamps to mail them back to you...Let's have fun and happy crafting.
Please put your name and info on the backs of the houses***Signup ends August 25th and send to me by September 18th.... They will be sent back to you by the first of October! Smiles...Beth ********************************************************************************************************************************************The names are for the houses I have received so far ******************************************************************************************************************************************** Maddie Semple Beth Winnie Sissy

Hi Connie, I am so sorry, this has been closed for several weeks...The date on the title indicates the last day that they need to be mailed out. We had to close this off at 20 for several reasons, costs, postage, etc. We will have a Christmas Village Houses Swap a little later on...That was suggested by one of the other farm girls. Keep looking, next week we will start the Fall Harvest ATC swap and the Halloween ATC swap. Both of these will be so much fun!!! Thanks for your willingness to be a part of MJF. Smiles, Beth
You can never be to kind!
