It’s been awhile since we have done a secret sister swap and with some of our favorite holidays coming up I thought this would be a good time to do one.
For those of you who have never done one -the rules are easy. You will be emailed a partner after sign-ups close. You will than send them small surprises, cards, post cards etc. until you send them a reveal package and tell them who has been thinking of them these past few months. Please make sure you send something every few weeks as no one wants to be disappointed. If you must drop out for any reason, please let me know ASAP so an angel can take over.
Please post here with a few likes and allergies if any. Birthday and Anniversary as well if you choose. Please email me your mailing address so I can forward it to your secret sister when this swap closes. If you are willing to be an angel please let me know that as well.
Sign-ups will go through September 17th. The secret sister reveal will be December 25th. I thought it would be fun to do the reveal as a Christmas package. L
I will start a new post for Thank You’s after partners are sent.
Let the mystery begin.
A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.

Julie I have always wanted to be a part of a secret sister swap, so sign me up please. I love peppermint, nuts of any kind, popcorn and chocolate. A combination of any of these is always a plus! I love to read, and consider myself a crafty person, always willing to learn something new. I have done tole painting, cross stitch, decoupage and embroidery. Currently I am interested in learning to quilt. Oh yes, and have also enjoyed paper crafting which includes stamping and embossing.

Being I have never participated in a secret sister swap, I have a dumb question, how does everyone post a return contact information.

Hi Julie, This sounds like so much fun. Please count me in on this swap. I like dark chocolate, music, frogs and bicycling. I am a teacher and recently earned my ministerial license. My favorite color is forest green, probably has something to do with my affinity of being outside. Can't wait to get started.

Please sign me up Julie.
I love receiving surprises from farmgirls so anything is great to send to me. But if you are stuck and need some ideas - I love all things Christmas, dairy cows, reading, cooking/baking, tea & hot chocolate, dark chocolate and mint, I crochet and sew and do some papercrafting. My favorite color is purple but blue is a very close second. My birthday is Nov. 30

I'd like to sign up Julie! I haven't done one of these in a long time. Do we still use the farm's return address?
Some of my likes. I sew, embroider and cross stitch as well as quilt and read cozy mysteries. I drink tea, decaf or herbal. Love vintage type Christmas and fall is my favorite season.
