Winnie Today I received your wonderful box. The box is so pretty, but inside the gifts were so special. I love the handmade goodies especially the fingerless gloves you made, my daughter put them on and only took off for the picture, she's 10! The snowman ornament and decorations are great, could not love them more. The cookie press is so pretty and delicate looking, I can not wait to use along with the recipe you sent, looks yummy. All candy and teas have dibs already too, the whole family loves the farmgirl mail. Thank you for such a special box.

HI Kelly~~ Hehehe, the family peering over your shoulder while you open your farm girl mail and then wanting in on the loot!!!! I've had that same experience at my house!! LOL! IT sounds like the fingerless gloves will get plenty of use since they fit a certain 10 year old girl too!**wink** The bow belt is crafted by a lovely Etsy shop owner I know in Idaho and they look so cute with a long skirt. Sort of glammed up prairie look. I have two of them and love the soft adjustable waist. I hope you or even your daughters will have fun adding this little secret to your wardrobe. Enjoy your package as you get launched on this holiday season. I know I am going to be enjoying mine you sent!!

Oh! My so excited when I went to post office today. My farmgirl sister box was in. I decided to brave the stormy weather so I could get my Christmas Box out as well, instead of Thursday. So Vanessa keep watch of you mail...it's on it's way:) Thank you so much for ALL the goodies. Love It! Pop Corn, salt/pepper sakers from Florida, coasters with sunflowers and rooster on them, handmade stickers with Sunflowers. How beautiful..Couple of tree ord.. Magnetic notepad,Lindt Chocolate YUMMY which I have had three as I'm tying this, and so going to have my ice cappuccino mix/cup right after I'm done tying this note. The only thing I wasn't sure of what is the seeds? What kind of flower? Thank you again my sweet farmgirl sister for the wonderful Christmas Box gifts...hugs Deb

Dear Deb, Those are milkweed seeds from my backyard. Got to encourage butterflies! I had the best time making the sugarplum fairy.
Thank you Marie, I guess we both got the crafting gene from mom and grandma.

The seeds are milkweed from my own garden. Got to encourage the Monarch butterflies! I am looking forward to receiving my box. This was such a fun swap, will there be one for Valentine's?
Thank you for the kind words, Marie. I guess we both got our crafting gene from mom and grandma!

Thank You Marti for the beautiful box and all the treats packed inside! The scarf is so soft and beautiful, love the colors in the dishcloths. The ornaments are so cute and as soon as the tree goes up they will have a place of honor on it. The coasters are already on the coffee table, what a cute idea that is and the towels are hanging on the stove. Since I haven't had a chance to start any decorating yet you added a little color to my snowed in world right now. I love the hand and foot lotion both are needed in the winter. Thank You for being such a wonderful swap partner Marti, I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
Hugs Julie

Hi Heather, your box arrived safely. I just had to wait to see all the goodies. (working) I loved it! From the box, to the goodies inside! I was so blessed. The recipe book is such a hit. I love to cook and try new recipes, you really put a lot of time into it and it will be cherished. the ornaments will be on my kitchen tree. the post card my daughter is taken with, she wants to have a small farm so the cows had her smiling. I am planning a cup of hot chocolate after some decorating this evening, the note pad and pen have already been put to use making lists of things to do. I know I am forgetting something, and I do not know how to post a picture. But again thank you. I sent your box out and discovered I forgot to include a Christmas card, oops. Wishing you a blessed Merry Christmas!

You're welcome Julie, I'm so glad you liked it :) The ornaments you sent are adorning my dining room table top tree, the hand towels (what pretty soft colors!) are hanging in the guest bath (I don't have them in the place to use, just an adornment cuz i don't want anyone soiling them! lol) I have already used up the hot chocolates, soooooo good on these cold snowy nights, and the lindt chocolates have been devoured! I loooove the Burts Bees lip balms and lotions. Thank you and you're welcome :) Merry Christmas! and a very Blessed New Year!

Joyce, thank you so much for the wonderful box I received today. I just love everything in it! You really had it stuffed!!! I love black and red so the candy cane scarf is perfect. I also love to cook so the Spode recipe cards, cupcake picks, and napkins are perfect. The hand towel, wooden ornament, and everything else are just perfect....all my style....how did you know!? Your handmade card is gorgeous as well. Thank you again---ever so much! Merry Christmas, Portia

Danyel, Thank you so very much for the beautiful box and everything in it! The box is so big I can't decide if I want to use it for holding some scrapbooking stuff or some material! I love tea and hot cocoa and can't wait to try the ones you sent in the beautiful mug you sent too! I love the quote "The joy of the LORD is your strength" Neh. 8:10 that is on the inside rim. I needed some new stationary! The calendar will go on my desk, the bookmark will be used a lot as I'm always reading something, I've already listened to the CD, and I love the candle warmer you sent! It looks great in my living room. My house will smell great from the tarts.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful swap. I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful new year!

Heather, I am happy that you enjoyed the box, my girls asked if they could have one to. Blessings to you and your family I enjoyed being your swap partner for Christmas. May the season be filled with happy times, and at least a little down time for you. (smiles)
