Hello All,
I’ve been away from the farm for awhile & for those who are new, I used to host swaps. With that being said, I thought as a come back a good old fashioned corsage swap would fit the occasion. I don’t know about you but I love corsages !
Looked forward to wearing them at Easter as a child. They’re very easy to make, all you need is your imagination & the giddiness of a little girl 
This is open to all farmgals. Please email me if you wish not to mail outside the US.
Sign ups till March 13 th
Mail out DEADLINE March 30 th
Please remember Easter is April 12 th. Don’t leave your partner corsageless ......
As with all my swaps a give away follows.   
Hello, Marilyn & April,
Since it’s just us three in the swap, I had my hubby draw the names. Marilyn’s name was the first name drawn, then mine & then April. So, Marilyn sends to Me, Me to April, April to Marilyn. I hope that’s alright with you gals ? I will be sending you both a give away. Thank You for joining my swap.

What a neat idea! I also loved my Easter corsage as a child...althoigh I remember we were given a big purple orchids each year at church.
Someone pinned it to the shoulder of our pretty, homemade Easter dress. Then we really felt dressed up and festive. Hat, pretty new dress,shiny white patent leather shoes, new hankie, Bible and Easter corsage!
Please add my name to your list.

Ok, Maddie - you may have started something here!! LOL!!! I made my first corsage today and am happy with the way it turned out, only hiccup is the elastic on what and how to attach, but I have an idea will try tomorrow, if it works, I'm on my way to creating a few others for my family for easter! You have inspired me - thank you!

Wonderful !!!!! My friend. I got all my frillies out today to see what I have. I forgot about all my vintage goodies. Are you making the corsage for the wrist or lapel ? If you need help with attaching for the wrist, let me know. I have a way I do it, that’s easy.

Oh My April,
You’re so right. Addictive! I made two corsages today. I went one step further & dyed my flowers, they were stark white, not anymore,lol.

You’re welcome April. Glad you like your corsage. As I told Marilyn, the box is reusable, so don’t pitch it, lol. Also, it’s supposed to be a kitty, not a bunny lol. I figured since you have a real dog, you need a kitty to join your family;-)

Thank you again and thank you for hosting - I think you may have started a new tradition for me - to make myself a corsage every year going forward! XO Stay safe!!
