I'm in the other as well, but you can never have enough Halloween stuff!! Count me in!!
(I am making cauldrons for the other Halloween nature table swap :))
I *might* make witches for this swap. I have to make one first to see how long it will take me.

(and I'm firmly of the belief that one can never have too many cauldrons)

So let's see. We've got:
1. Gwen
2. huntersmama
3. mom2kbeth
4. Korwynne
5. elfmama
6. sarah10998
7. PolkaDot
I know I said 6, but does anyone mind making just one more thing so everyone who wants to can play? PM or Post if you don't want to do one more thing and we'll see what we can come up with.
Right now, everyone make *6* items and ship to me along with a regular envelope self addressed and with a priority mail stamp affixed. That way I can use whatever packaging I need to and just tape the envelope to whater box I use, make sense? If you'd rather paypal me $4 to cover shipping and paypal fees, lmk. Also, if the cost of shipping is going to exclude you from the swap, please let me know that also and I will do my best to help you. I know I've backed out on a couple of swaps because of not being able to afford shipping, so just let me know :).
Ship date is October 1, does that sound ok? We can all aim to ship earlier but that would be the LATEST, so don't doddle ;).

We're still missing 2 I think, but everything I've gotten is so flipping adorable I just want to keep it all. I won't, but you should have seen me ripping open the packages, lol. It's all really great stuff. I think everyone will be pleased as punch, and most, though halloweenish, will be excellent to keep with the fall theme, not just halloween. There is only one I think will be more Halloweenish, but it's so cute I think I'll leave it up all year, lol. The kids are going to go gaga.
Oh, I've decided that the great pumpkin is coming to our house this year. What's he doing here? He's going to set up the Halloween nature table once the children are sleeping on Halloween eve! Aren't I genius? I swear that this holiday thing is more for the parents than the kids, hee-hee!

I'm so excited and can't wait to see everything!!
The Great Pumpkin is a cute idea too. We already started to set up our Halloween nature table or I would have to do it that way ;)
I totally agree that the holidays are more fun for the parent. LOL. I love planning fun things to do for the kids :) I love holidays, especially Halloween!

What a cute idea!! I love the Great Pumpkin idea!
We always have Ellie Elf here around the Yule and Christmas Holidays...won't be long and she will certainly be flitting around:D

do you know what shipping totals will be yet?
and i think you are sending my red/brown swap stuff in the same box right?
I cant' wait to see what everyone made, and i would be thrilled if we had it in time for Halloween :happy:

I have to mail these by Wednesday (tomorrow) to guarantee delivery by Halloween. We have 2 packages lost in the mail :( darn PO. Here is what I'd like to do. I'd like to send what we have to everyone. You will each be 2 items short (one item if replacement pkg comes in time). If items show up I will ship them asap when they arrive. If we figure out the items are just lost in space, then I will have the replacements shipped directly to you, instead of me as the middle man. The worst case scenario would be that I have to replace the items myself, which I don't think will happen since both the missing packages are from respectable mamas, lol, but just in case, you're all covered. Does that sound ok? Any objections? Please send paypal to neallwest@lycos.com. $4.25 will be the shipping total (added a little for paypal fees. It is the cutest stuff mamas!

Ok ladies! I am shipping all whose names say PAID after them. I am shipping to addresses provided by paypal, so if you have not paypalled, I probably don't have your address. If your name does not say paid after it, then I have not received payment from you. Please send payment to neallwest@lycos.com as soon as possible. Any questions or concerns, please contact me :). I think you'll all be pleased!
***IMPORTANT*** Please zap your address to sarah10998 ASAP. She is shipping her items individually to you. Thanks for your understanding.***

My deepest apologies to all the halloween swappers. I know I waited too long to ship. I was hoping the missing items would appear but they didn't :(. I hope everyone likes their items anyway. I think they're all so adorable.
