Oh Sweet Sarah! I received your delightful box today, after an extremely stressful morning! Thank you so very much! Everything was so beautifully wrapped, the stocking is really cute, all the ornaments are delightful, the basket will be really useful and festive, the tealight holder is seriously adorable, the gloves "handy," and the chocolate yummy. But the hat... oh the hat.... How I LOVE the hat!!!! Thank you so very very much!!!!

Linda O. ...no problem girlfriend. Be looking for yours in about a week or less. Sorry, but I refused to
pay $25.00 shipping to get it to you faster. (I have a big Grumble against postal prices)
Yours went out yesterday by the way.
Happy to see a PICTURE...thanks for that Carole. Hope you enjoyed it!!
Ho-Ho-Ho,

LOL! Peggy -
I agree - postal prices are going postal! I have to find a box big enough for your stuff. Tonight I am wrapping everything.

Hi Rita,
I just wanted to let you know that as of today I still have not received my box. It sounds like it was misdirected or lost or something. As I told you in the emai, please don't worry about it-I'm not. I get it when I get it. I promise I wll let you know the second it arrives!
hugs,
Marcy

Hi Rita,
Yea, I got it!! Oh, I just love everything. LOVE the angel, she will be staying out all year. The village pieces are perfect and I will be adding them to my village. Love the knitted dishcloths (I don't think you can ever have too many of those, the chocolate is put away so that I do not eat all of it (did I mention that I am a chocoholic) The little snowman pin is adorable. love the bracelet and the stocking is soooo pretty! Oh, and that scarf, how cute is that? Thank you so very much! I just love everything. Hope you have a wonderful holiday.
hugs,
Marcy

Peggy Ann -
I GOT MAIL TODAY! YEE HAW!! I just love my stocking and everything in it. I hope I don't miss naming anything. First - the purple stocking is beautiful! It is dark purple satin, with the front covered with a sheer white with snowflake pattern fabric, white fur at the top and a purple flower and white and silver butterfly. I LOVE it! Next are the edibles: CHUKAR CHERRIES (dark chocolate black forest cherries), Peppermint Bark Bites, Candy Cane Crunch Cocoa, a large Pomegranate candy cane, 2 tea bags, and 2 chocolate peppermint spoons. Then there is the rest of the items - LOTS of them: a beautiful purple ladder-yarn scarf, 2 Scentsy Bars in Wonderland and Peppermint Dreams scents (I have Scentsy warmers going in the house almost constantly), A\a western snowman ornament, a snowman and dog ornament, a stained glass angel ornament, a Happy Holidays ornament, 2 handmade needlepoint and crewel ornaments, an old fashioned Santa ornament, a book: Chicken Soup for the Soul - The Gift of Christmas, a spring themed magnetic notepad, a Blessed sign made from Scrabble tiles on a Scrabble rack, a nice purple sleep mask (I've never used one of these), a beautiful golden heart necklace in a Burlap gift bag, 2 scented soaps: Peppermint Bark, and Song of the Siren Shea Butter, some window Gel Clings of blue and purple snowflakes (my favorite colors), a cute little purple clutch purse (maybe this will help me pare down what I carry in my large bag), some colorful bakers twine and gift tags, and jute twins (great for some of the swap projects), and a Country Sampler Christmas magazine (LOTS of neat ideas that will probably have to wait until next year!). Thanks so much, Peggy Ann - what a super swap partner.
Here are the before and after pictures. They don't do justice to everything inside.
Here is the beautiful stocking:
The Before picture - stuffed stocking and all
And 2 pictures of the unwrapped goodies:
Thank you again, Peggy Ann. HUGS AND BLESSINGS!

Awesome Linda...you got it earlier than the Post Office said you would!!! Glad about that. I am so happy that you liked
everything. Doesn't that Peppermint Bark Soap smell delicious??? I got some for family members stockings too. I just
could have stood in Barnes and Noble and sniffed it all day! LOL I did make the needle point ornaments. Had to make
you something...couldn't do all store bought. The Western Snow Man...I got at an Antique Shop that I love to go to...
nothing said MJF quite like that did. (+: I saw that you liked Scentsy...and I do too. In fact my oldest Step-daughter sells it...so I'm blessed to get a tad bit of a discount from her. I only have one burner but plan to get another one...soon. They make the house smell so good don't they?
Well, it was so much fun to Swap with you. I also appreciate all the help you were willing to give with this Swap and I pray that you have an Amazing Christmas...filled with The Love and Laughter of Family and Friends.   
Hugs and Joy,
Peggy

Everyone's stockings are beautiful. I just adore them all. This is one of the most fun swaps.
Unfortunately my partner Scrappygal is not replying to any messages. I talked with her very early on for address exchanges. I have never heard from her on weather or not she received her stocking (shows delivered early last week). I have sent her several emails but no replies.
