********************UPDATE****************************************

Sign Up ends at 5pm this evening, we will then post the list of all the ladies that have signed up. If you do not see your name on the list please let us know.

All of the farmgirls that have signed up on this thread have sent their information and we have it. We do not think we have missed anyone but mistakes do happen that is why we will post the list.

You will not get your SS name and information for a few days so please be patient. Quite a few have signed up so this will be such a fun swap.

Get your card and little gift of tea or something small ready to send out on the 15th of January. That way your SS knows you are thinking of her as you get your first package ready to mail. Once you get your SS information then you will be able to personalize your first package to her.

Remember this first SS Swap of 2013 runs from January 15th through April 15th when you will send your reveal gift to your SS letting her know who you are and a little bit about your life.

Wonderful friendships have been made from Secret Sister and will last for years.

We will post our list this evening, thanks ladies for wanting to be part of such a wonderful swap. Secret Sister is so much fun and you always get to look forward to farmgirl mail.

I for one love farmgirl mail!

********************************************************************

***Remember you will not have the same Secret Sister that you send to, someone different will be sending to you.***

Sign Ups begin December 10,2012 and will end on January 2nd, 2013

1. SS will start January 15th and run through April 15th.
2. You must mail with Delivery Confirmation as it does not cost that much, 75 cents-1.00 extra,then you will know your package was received and not lost somewhere. (This is very important using Delivery Confirmation for you and your Secret Sister.)If we hear from a Secret Sister that she has not received anything from her SS we will contact you for the Delivery Confirmation Information.
3. Once or twice a month you will send a gift/card to your secret sister to let her know you are thinking of her.
4. It must be a homemade or store bought gift, but it does not have to be expensive.
5. When you get your SS's name you will get her bio with likes, and collections she may have and any other information she supplies to us.
6. You will not have the same SS you send too, we repeat this again.
7. When you receive something from your SS you must post it on the SS thread Joan and I will start. That way she knows it was received, even though she will have the delivery confirmation it is nice to hear a thank you and you appreciate her surprise. (Please post pictures if you can of your packages, so we can all share in the fun) Everyone loves to get mail and everyone loves to be appreciated. (This to is so important too).

8. Please, please DO NOT sign up if you are over committed with other swaps, or you believe you can not afford to send a card or gift once or twice a month with Delivery Confirmation, or other obligations family or otherwise. This is a fun swap to get to know other farmgirls sisters better and we sure do not want to hurt our farmgirl sisters feelings. Let us respect one another and follow through it is so important.

On or around January 15th, Joan and I will email you your Secret Sisters name and all her information. You will need to be ready to send your first gift/card within a week.

Last but not least remember this is a Secret Swap, you will use Mary Janes Farm address as your return address. We will post here address as the time gets nearer to mail.

Thank you farmgirls, lets have a fun and successful Secret Sister 2013.

Hugs,
Debbie and Joan
