I decided to make a Valentine Tree! I am sharing here cause I have valentines from a lot of the Farm Sisters on this swap. Emily and Beth may recognize theirs. Tammy made the Paper Dolls last year. I am just getting started. Marcy, I finished your box today! I will get it in the mail on Monday! Imagine....#3392 |

BETH, the little mirror is perfect you gave me last year and can you see the little heart box in the picture above that is sideways, sorry! I put ribbon inside and made an ornament out of it. I just love un-packing my Farm sisters cards from last year! Imagine....#3392 |

Connie ..That tree is darling. We have a tree that stays up all year and we decorate for all the fun things each month. Farmgirls all have so much fun with all these swaps and decorating, I think.

Maddie, I just got my Valentine Box. What suspense! Lots of unwrapping to do, first the pink cupcake wrapping paper times 2, a pear box, the tissue paper and finally my beautiful box and its contents. Thank you so much. It is so pretty. Is the Victorian Valentine cutout the one on the handmade card inside? It is so cute. I really like everything in it. I cannot thank you enough. It is beautiful inside, outside, top and bottom and every side. Mine is not done yet. This is my first decorated box, since grade school that is. So I am fretting over it quite a bit, but I will be getting it in the mail soon. Lotsa huggggssssss,

Hi Jenne :) I am so happy you like my Valentine Box. I haven't made one either, since grade school,brought back fond memories!!! I guess you can tell I like festive wrapped packages LOL. I didn't have a shoebox & I remembered that cigar box ;) Now, don't you fret about about making my box, just be a kiddo again. Hum a happy tune while listening to the radio,that is what I did & Victoria Magazine gave me the inspiration ;)

Great ideas Maddie. I have lots of ideas floating around in my head, I just need to put everything else aside and get to it. I think next week I will make all my swaps. My son leaves for college then :( and I will have plenty of free time. Thank you again for my Valentine Box. It fancies up my bureau nicely.

Kelly, AKA LovinRChickens (Love your user name)
Recieved your my beautiful Valentine box you made for me. I love it!!! The little girl peeking out from behind the valentine is so adorable. Love everything you had packed in my box. My little valentine angel is now hanging on a hook on the door to my craft room. I love the little crochet lapel pin. I plan to wear it on my coat to our church valentine dinner. The lavender soap is awesome! Did you make it? For now, I have it sitting in a basket on my desk. It is making my craft studio smell wonderful. I love the little decorated clothespins and the little stuffed heart. I have them hanging on my bulletin or memory board in my studio.
The tea will be put to good use. You picked out some of my most favorites. I am drinking the Carmel Apple Spice as I am typing this.
Now lets talk about the candy. LOL! I caught my hubby Skip also known as MJF FARM BROTHER "BIG BUZZ" with his hands on my candy. He denied it, but I found the evidence. LOL! I included the opened empty wrappers in my pictures. He is like a little kid. LOL! He LOVESSSSSS his candy, or my candy, or everyone else's candy. LOL!
Thank you for my Valentine Box and Valentine card. I love everything! Hopefully I will have your box in the mail by Wednesday of this week, so that you may have it by Friday or Saturday. I still have a couple more things to pick up to put in your box.
Hope all the farmsisters can see the pictures I have posted. Must scoot along and go hide my candy. LOL!
Hugs and a very Happy Valentines Day to You!
Debbie H. Buzzn Bee

Debbie...I am so glad it made it to you all safe and sound. I am glad you liked it, I have never done a box before so I was a bit nervous. But indeed it was fun and will gladly do more in the future. So funny on the MJF FARM BROTHER "BIG BUZZ" story, thanks for a good laugh.
Blessings ~Kelly~ |

Hi Alissa, Received your beautiful valentine box today. It is so pretty and I love pink. Loved the way you decorated it inside and out and the darling little felt heart and stickpin and valentine tag. Loved the vintage valentine you made me and the paper that decorated the inside of the box. Thanks so much!

Isn't this just BEAUTIFUL!!!! This gorgeous heart shaped box arrived in my hands today from Julie . . aka "treelady". It is just WONDERFUL and the colors are perfect for it to go in my bedroom year round! There are also little ribbon flowers embellishing the inside. WOWIE! ZOWIE!!
Julie also sent Bath & Body Work "P.S. I Love You" products . . which I use and love. Chocolate kisses, tea, cute little notepad which will be great for my fridge, a lovely lavender sachet, cupcake sticky notes, pencils, heart candies and a wonderful Valentine themed wine glass.
Okay, Julie, I'm spoiled! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!!
Farmgirl Hugs! CJ
