I did not hear from my secret sister in July. I hope everything is ok.
I really enjoy seeing the wonderful ways all you sisters have brightened each other's lives. You are all so creative in the ways you think up the great items to send.
I can't wait to complete this with my final package coming soon with the great reveal!! Are you ready?
Hugs and Squishies!!

By the way, secret sister, I would love to have the pattern for the knitted washrag you sent me back in your May package. My sister loves it and I would love to make one for her.
Hugs and Squishies!!

Dear, SS. I got your package today & its amazing, thank you so much! The matching note cards & journal are too cute, the fact that they have matching emery boards are awesome! And I'll be wearing those pretty feathers in a barret soon & Iam wearing my bracelet right now, I love green about as much as I love purple! ;)
And don't worry for a single moment about having been late. Yu've done such a wounderful job of spoiling me that I could fault you for nothing Your a great SS!
Heres a pic of the great gift my SS sent me!

And heres the beautiful journal I got from my SS last month but couldn't post at that time. She told me that another Farm Sister made it, so I just want whoever she is to know her art is amazing!

Dear Fabulous Secret Sister!
I received a package from you and I was so excited to see what was inside! I received the lovely scarves you made (how did you know that each fall I treat myself to a new one?? Now I have two made by VERY talented hands!), a delicious mulberry candle(yummm!), beautifully fragranced frankincense and myrrh soap which made the whole package smell sooooo good!Thank you too for the tea! I'm just getting back into drinking a little cup of tea here and there so some tea and a good book will be perfect...along with the gorgeous little tea towel! It will look perfect in my kitchen (I just made apple green gingham curtains!)...and of course, the best part of all, your sweet note!
I am very lucky indeed to have such a thoughtful secret sister-thank you again! :) |

My secret sister sent my July package in August. And I was worried. Silly me. She was just being very sneaky. But sweet.
Here's what she sent me: A beautiful flour sack towel - Americana....love it. Also some pretty Sea Scene note cards and 2 Yankee Candles - Sun & Sand and Beachwalk. I love Yankee Candles!!
I was a little concerned when the box came...It says - in big letters, "BONES". In smaller letters it says (Not) over one side and on the other side, it says (Not) over the BONES, then underneath it says, "Or anything else creepy or weird". And since it rattled when we shook it, well, we opened it really carefully!! But my lovely secret sister included a note that explained the box was used at her church Vacation School for Lazarus "bones". Don't you just love are re-purposing?!
I think I may recognize my secret sister's handwriting....hmmm. But, I'll wait for the August reveal.
I'm loving this swap. Hope we all are!
Hugs and Squishies!!

I got a fabulous pkg. from My Secret Sister today...I tried to post a picture of it but my computer
is just not cooperating. I will try to post again tomorrow...but I just have to say that this was
my very favorite pkg!!! I got the cutest "Peppers" Salt and Pepper Shakers, a bird nest with an egg (I
love all things birds), an adorable butterfly night lite, and the cutest Bumble Bee Plant Stick. I feel
like I'm forgetting something...I hope not...because I was just so thrilled with it ALL!!! Oh yes, how could I forget I got an "For Emergency" Chocolate Candy Bar (I laughed when I saw that...this Sister knows me well!) Thank YOU So Much For Making My Month!!! I thought this might be my Name Reveal Box
but her note still did not disclose her name. The Secret goes on.....
 
BIG HUGS AND SMILES,
peggy

Thank you for the wonderful package dear Secret Sister. I'm so tardy in posting as my husband had knee surgery last week. Your packages are always such a bright spot! Thank you :)

I would like to apologize to my secret sister. I have been going through a very horrible divorce for the last two months and was unable to make contact with her in July. I am now starting to see daylight and have a package ready to be shipped that is loaded with lots of goodies to try and make up for the month that I missed. I will be sending it out shortly. Again I am sorry.

Kathy!
Thank you so much for being a fantastic secret sister! Your last package arrived yesterday. My youngest daughter insisted on a teaparty right away! Thanks for all the months of spoiling! Have a great rest of August!
