Alright I'm in Beth. I've been watching and reading and debating should I or shouldn't I but I simply cannot pass this one up. So sign me up and since I've made 10 or so stockings in the last couple days I'm fairly certain I can find one "hanging" around someplace.
Favorites...hmmm Coffee (plain Black) Tea (also black is my favorite) fabric handkerchiefs primitive anything essential oils ornaments (I have a lg tree in every room of my house but the bathroom at Christmas...it just gets a 4 ft lol) Overkill? You betcha favorite color: red candles..fresh scents or food smells...florals kill my sinus' don't know why
I will be an easy please for certain..I get so tickled to get a package in the mail that isn't a U owe me...I have never gotten anything yet from a farm girl swap that I wasn't over the moon thrilled with. Happy hunting ladies...that will be half the fun!

I'm with you Darlene. Can't wait to find out partners so I can pick that something special. I'm all ready to go. Need to wrap but my stocking is done and waiting to be filled. Thank you Beth. This also inspired me to make my kids special stockings this year. They actually picked out the fabric so they know they are going to be made but won't know the details until Christmas morning. Santa needs some credit after all. ;)

I know I love the stocking my momma made me. It still resides at her house. I think it is part of her way of getting us there for Christmas. :) I know how you feel about missing folks though. Miss my dad like crazy.
Looking forward to this Christmas season!

Oh good. I'm not the only one playing Christmas music. I think it is probably a little early and doesn't give Thanksgiving its proper due but with our weather and a fire going Christmas music has seemed appropriate.
