Yes Ladies! You read that correctly! I hosted this swap a couple of years ago and figured.. What the heck! Let's give it another round. We all have that one drawer (or three) in the kitchen that seems to catch EVERYTHING from twist ties to that one piece you know what it goes to but just don't know what it goes to, so you hang onto it. After you get past all of that there is some pretty awesome things in there, right!? Heck yes there is! If not you wouldn't have 3 drawers full of the stuff.  Soooo.... Sign ups are until 4/18 and I will send the start box out on 4/20. Let me know if you want in on these crazy little treasures that we just "need to hang on to". Hoppy Easter!
I'm so busy I don't know if I just found a rope or lost my horse! |

So is this like the traveling craft box {question mark key doesn't work}. We put stuff in that we don't want and take stuff out we do want and send it on {}. If so, I am in. Sending you my address.

Correct! I thought I we would get a lot more of a turn out.  I don't mean to send all your old batteries and dried out highlighters (even though I did find some of those). I started going through mine already and there is some pretty great "junk" in there!

I believe that we can start small. We should make certain to post pictures of the stuff we took out of the box so that others can appreciate the treasures and want to join the swap when it comes around again. Do not despair.

This sounds like too much fun to pass up! Please add me to the list. How long do we keep this going? I really love this idea. I am thinking of all the "stuff" that's in my junk drawer in the kitchen. Flashlights, candles, weird tools, seed packets.....I can't even think of all of it.

Everyone ready?? I will wait until Monday to ship out the box will all of my junk drawer goodies in it. The last time I hosted this swap I just let the box travel down the line in the order of sign ups, meaning Marie will get the box first and then send it to Amy and so forth. If we get anymore sign-ups we will just keep it going. Thanks ladies!

Sorry for the delay ladies. We have had a busy and crazy start to our week then this AM I walked out of the house and forgot our box. I will be posting the tracking number here tomorrow evening.
I'm so busy I don't know if I just found a rope or lost my horse! |

OK good! I tried to post the tracking # from my phone when I was there but for some reason it I can't post mobile. I can read all the posts and type out replies... for some reason they won't post.

Okay, this will be going out tomorrow. I just need to know whom to send it to and where to send it. I didn't see a list of farmgirls and addresses in the box.
This is what I kept from the box:
Scotch clear glue - I use this for my paper crafts
Packets of olive and golden yellow dye
USB converter cord - can never have too many of these
Dog-shaped paper clip
To-Do List with a slot for each day of the week
I have stuffed it full again.

Marie I never received an email from Amy with her mailing information. I thought that maybe she sent it directly to you. I do have everyone else's mailing addresses.

Hi Fellow Junk Collectors! Here's a photo and a list of the goodies I kept from the box:
a snickers tin, because I collect tins
a big plastic diamond ring because I need it for another swap!
some round non-stick pads, not sure what they are but I'm going to use to make some coasters
a foot detox kit - always wanted to try this
a usb to ac converter, always need more
a bottle stopper with a nice wooden knob on it
a package of confetti because it's shiny and has happy faces:)
two pencil sharpeners
There was so much good stuff in there, but I tried to control myself! I packed it back up to the gills and am ready to send it. I think it goes to Marilyn next. If that's correct, Marilyn please send me your address. This is a hoot!! Thanks for your great idea, Danielle:) Hugs to all . . .
Peace in our hearts, peace in the world

Yes, Amy. Those are coasters. I have a friend that prints your picture on items like shirts, mugs, etc. I was given a few blank ones for some kids to draw or color on to "make there own". Yay! 3 more and its MYYYYY turn!!!
