Kelly, you are on the ball!What a surprise to receive your last box today! Thank you so very much for all the wonderful things!!!! How did you know I love snowmen? The snowman plaque is precious and just my style. Here in NY, that can stay up almost year-round!The snowman ornament that fits on a bulb will be so cute when I put it on my tree and the snowmen bottle top ornament is wonderful. I use bottle caps in some of my crafting and love them. The gingerbread cookie cutters----with different missing limbs----is hilarious! I can't wait to use my favorite recipe with them. And, last but not least, some more of that wonderful goat's milk soap. Love it!
Yours will go out next week.I will let you know when.
Hugs, Portia
Wishing for the country life! |

Julie.... I'm sorry I haven't posted sooner - with cakes, a bridal expo and my son's football team being in the playoffs, I've been busy... But VERY blessed! It has been wonderful having you for a swap partner! I absolutely couldn't have handpicked things better myself!.... I love everything, but the camper... Oh the camper!!!!....That was just THE ULTIMATE!!!!! I love camping and we have a camper but a few months back I got a vintage camper to fix up for glamping and that ornament was the best ever!!!! - The movies are some of my favorite too! Are you sure we never met? lol... Cause you did better than family members at knowing me! Seriously, you've truly spoiled me with all the packages! Thank you for everything! I've had your package ready to send but haven't made it to get it sent out. It will go out in Wednesday's mail! I hope you enjoy yours and are as blessed as I've been! -hugs! Michele |

Portia My third box came today and boy I love it. Gingerbread man garland is too cute. I love, love, love the tea. Strawberry looks yummy but I love chocolate mint tea. Candy has all been spoken for by kids already. Potpourri will be fun to use here really soon. The little owl is precious. Tape will be fun to use. Shopping bag is pretty and will be used soon. Poinsettia hand towel I love. Thank you too for the really cute Christmas Card, I can not wait to start hanging them all up. Thank you for being such a wonderful swap partner. I have enjoyed this so much.

Karen, It has been 1 week since your 3rd box was delivered. I have not heard from you acknowledging that you have received it. The tracking # depicts that it was delivered last Wednesday. I know that this is a busy time of year for everyone. Hope that everything is fine with you and your family. Please let me know. Many blessings to you and your family. Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving. Laurie

Dear Linda, you are wonderful. I loved your box. There were so many great things in my box. I kept the stocking stuffers for the girls a secret, they will love them. The fabric bowl is great. I am oddly impressed everytime I see one that they can hold their shape. I have never had one though and it will go great on our coffee table with candy in it. I hung the stockings over my desk at home. I spend a fair bit of time there and will see them everyday. The girls and I do a little schooling outside school and their desks are next to mine so they will enjoy them too. Perhaps I will have to replenish the stockings regularly this month. My whole family has been enjoying the turkey who has a prominent home on our kitchen/breakfast counter. My favorite part of this box was the tree topper angel. Not only is she beautiful but she looks identical to our tree topper from when I was a kid. I don't know which of my folks have her now but wow did my new one bring back some amazing memories. Thank you so much for your wonderfully generous boxes. With a husband who never can think of a gift for me this was such a good swap for me to feel that someone was thinking of me. He is a great husband but thoughtful gifts are not his skill. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

I'm glad you liked everything, Emily. And I hope the stocking stuffers are something they can use. That's neat about the tree top angel. It is an older pattern so may be exactly like the one you remember. The Solar Turkey is a fun feel-good gadget and was just a cute tuck I added; I bought several for some swap gifts and received one myself in a swap. This was a fun swap for me, too.
NOTE: The fabric bowl can be used on a table for candy; however, it is really a Microwave Bowl Potholder that I made. (If you'd like to make some I can send the pattern to you.) You put your cereal bowl or soup bowl in it in the microwave to cook. Then you do not need to use a potholder to remove the hot bowl from the microwave; it is already sitting IN its potholder. Saves putting fingers and potholders into the hot bowl when you pick it up.

Oh my, I have never heard of a microwave hot pad but what an amazing idea! I seem to always grab something out of there that is way to hot. We will be putting it to use and I would love the pattern. Such a cool idea!

Jaimey, I told you I'd be posting today with pictures and braggin' on your awesomeness. I've loved all my packages and the third one blew me away with the amount of thought you put into it. Love it. Other than for taking the pictures, the scarf has pretty much been on my neck since I opened the box. I wore the snowflake earrings to work today - appropriate since we had some flakes flying in the wintry mix. HOW do you make those?.. so intricate and delicate, lovely. It is so neat that you sent me two things featuring raspberries the same month I sent raspberry stuff to you. Can not wait to get into that candy bar and I'll savor the candy cane, too. Just so much fun stuff packed in there! Sweet heart ornament, coasters, neat little bag for trash or such in the car, nice little pink nail file (my color), really cool bar of soap and would you believe I almost bought that CD last week?!?! Told myself "I'm not supposed to be shopping for me." Ha ha and lo and behold you send it to me. But the fun won't end there - it goes all the way to the 24th!! I love that you took the time to make an advent box calendar for me and will thoroughly enjoy a little quiet break each evening to open a sweet box from you. Thank you so much! You've been a great swap partner and are a truly wonderful person.
Blessings, staci FG# 973 :o )
