I will sign up for this one also. I loved it so much last year.
I prefer non-Santa, non-religious themes. I like to celebrate the return of the light.
My six favorite things:
1) Chocolate - dark with favor additions such as orange, raspberry etc (surprise me) 2) Tea - herbal or black 3) Dinosaur figurines - nothing cutsie 4) Yarn - cotton, bamboo or wool (surprise me with the colors) 5) Pens - fountain if you can find a nice one or a roller ball with a pretty barrell 6) Pretty handkerchiefs - don't have to be vintage
I am so excited.

Sign me up. This sounds like fun! I can't believe I am caving to so many swaps! This makes 15 in the past month and a half. Am I crazy or what???
I prefer a traditional stocking. My favorite things are:
!. Antique sewing items, including fabrics, notions, and spools. 2. Anything Homemade or handmade like soaps, socks, or "country" decor. 3. Vintage/Antique style holiday decorations 4. Vintage handkerchiefs, crocheted potholders, and linens 5. Rubber stamping or ATC-type supplies. 6. Holiday cocoas/coffees/teas and cookies, and, of course, chocolate, chocolate, chocolate!
No candles, please, except for the squares that melt.
Hugs, all!

Hello Peggy Ann: Please include me in this swap! Sounds like SO much FUN! Looking forward to knowing who my partner will be! I would like non-religious traditional-ish.
1. I do love sparkly things! 2. Steam Punk or medieval themed is great. 3. I collect vintage salt and pepper shakers and snow people. 4. I'm a dog lover and have an Australian Kelpie. 5. I also collect chicken themed things.(I have 4 hens; Welsummer, Americana, Barred Rock and Silver-lace Wyandotte.) 6. I love both hot chocolates and chai teas. Oh this is going to be such fun! Thank you, Diana Gibson Sister chick #5288

Peggy Ann! Hello!
I would love to join in on the fun!
I'm more traditional - nature lover.
I raise bunnies and going to start chickens shortly. I have two cats also. So bunny, chicken and cat related "stuff" welcomed. :) Never go wrong with chocolate! Pampering stuff - Bath salt, soaps, lotions. Handmade and/or natural would be fantastic. Something handmade by you!
Thanks! Lee Ann
