I'm going to go ahead and do this one as a group swap, as it's easier to keep track of who has/has not shipped/recieved LOL :D (and since the poll was tied :P)

So, here goes:
Pamper Me Group Swap
Hostess: Tuesday
Ship By Date: Sept. 30
Value: $8.00

Taking sign ups in groups of 7, if there is more interest, I'll start another group. Please make 6 items (not including yourself, keep that one at home for you :P), ship to Tuesday (PM for mailing address) by Sept. 30th.

Post to this thread if you are interested in joining, if possible (or when you do decide later), please post what you will be making for the swap. Post to this thread with questions.

I would love to get in on this one. This will be my first swap here :)

me please.. not sure what I'll do yet.

Me! If there is interest in herbal hot/cold packs, I can do those.

I'm in... not sure what I am making yet though. :)

want to brainstorm some ideas?

YAY! I would LOVE that...I put that next to your name, if you change your mind, though...just let me know :D

want to brainstorm some ideas?
yeah, good idea...
Sachets, lotions or bath items, soaps, eye things (what are those?? ROFL), yummy washcloths, what else?

I'd like to participate. My delayed swaps are going out Friday since payday is almost here. :cuc:
Not absolutly certain yet but I think I'd like to do bath bombs and linen/room sprays. I kinda bought 25 lbs of citric acid last month and it'd probably be a good idea to use more than the pound I've gone through so far. SNORT:hahaha:

Oh, and can I request a smell preference/allergy rundown?

oooh - that sounds GREAT, hastings! :heart:

My smell preferences -
cinnamony stuff, pumpkin spice, apple/cinnamon, clove/cinnamon/apple, clove/cinnamon/orange, etc - fall scents would be heavenly!

I also like vanilla - like warm vanilla sugar? But the above are my most bestest favorites :heart:

Can I do bath salts? :) (I'll steal hasting's smell preferences) :D

Sandra, I put your name in the group, you wanted in, right? :D

Sandra, I put your name in the group, you wanted in, right? :D
nevermind ROFL :P

Okay, group 1 is full, I'll start filling a second group now, if there is further interest :)

added some ideas to the original post :D

I LOVE PATCHOULI!!! That is a big fave here, as well as Spearmint Eucalyptus combo.

Tuesday - I will definitely do those packs since I already have all the herbs.

Since I'm the one that asked, I love sandlewood, clove, wood scents and citrus.

I know hastings is already doing bath bombs.... would anyone mind if I did bath melts, or would that be too much bath stuff?

I'll probably do candles.. thinking about yankee candle votives in some sort of prettyfied holder - but I'm not completely decided on that part yet.

In terms of preferred scents... I like fallish scents.. pumpkin, apple cider, cinnamon.. baking kinds of scents.. I don't care for floral or patcholi.

For allergies... are you sure you want an answer? :) Our household allergies are dairy, wheat/gluten, tomato, strawberries, melon, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wintergreen oil, onions, peppers, turkey, bleach, dogs, and cats. Okay.. a lot of that probably isn't applicable.. but .. you asked :) My husband and son are pretty much allergic to everything green outside as well.

I LOOOOOOOOVE LOVE LOVE lavender, as in, LIVE for it ROFL
BUT...I also love patchouli, sandalwood, any 'earthy' smell, as well as typical fall scents... :D

anyone have any preferred scents from yankee candle?

NEVER too much ROFL :P They sound great! I'll put them by your name :D

Oh, heavens - umm - where to start, where to start..

autumn wreath and harvest I LOOOVE

I might like:
macintosh, cinnamon apple berry, spiced pumpkin, pumpkin pie, cinnamon stick, etc.

awww - man - now I REAAAALLY want to change mantle candles. I'm still working on Strawberries from - oh, gosh - FEBRUARY!? LOL :) I need something new. Maybe I'll pop the lids on these and renovate the smellfulness. :D

Same here, all those sents :D

I will make cocoa butter moisturizing bars.

that's okay mama :D

WOw - that date came up fast!!!

Do I send to you, Tuesday, or ?

:hug:

Yeppers :D

Can you pretty please PM me your addy, darlin'? :)

I have to drop. I just can't get my act together. I've got stuff here, and the thought of getting it into a box and getting it mailed is just beyond my capabilities at the moment.

I'm so sorry. :(

does anyone want to trade with me for my extra then? its 4 citrus scented cocoa butter bath melts and a washcloth.

Don't stress Jodi, life gets in the way sometimes hon.

For those that haven't sent in, you can keep one of your items there at home...if you have already sent it in, I will return your extra to you when I send your package back after they get divided.

So, has everyone shipped ? :D I'm starting to get them in and YUMMMO!!! I can hardly keep from using them ROFL

mine are going out today!

crud, I deleted your addy, can you pm it to me again?

Ooooh, I am getting excited!! My dh says he's jealous because I get so many cool packages in the mail~ today nursing pads and mama pads came...I offered to share with him :lol:

I am DIGGING this stuff...this is a great swap (slow as it is, lol, it's GREAT :D)

So, could everyone PLEASE reply with whether or not they have shipped?? :D

I sent mine, you should already have it. I wish I knew before not to send them all in since they weigh a whole pound each.

I was a slacker - and ordered mine. They are being shipped directly to you - they will be coming from two different suppliers. One is an Amity WAHM who is in WA and the other is in Arizona.

Thanks :D

LOL, When I was thinking about shipping them back, your's was the first thing I thought of LOL...I was like "DANG", that's a couple bucks in postage right there! They are heavy...

but MAN do they look and smell and feel sooooo nice.

does anyone want to trade with me for my extra then? its 4 citrus scented cocoa butter bath melts and a washcloth.

If you want my extra, I will take your extra.

apparently I'm a moron who can't count properly! :lol:

I sent 6 of my thing - oh wth - why am I being all secretive? LOL

I got 6 bars of Evemary's soap for y'all - They were assorted scents that I thought would fit, so I'll let Tuesday decide who gets what. :D And bath sals, since that's what I promised when I signed up.

So, if I was supposed to send 5 (with me excluded) and then we lost one - that was 4 total I was supposed to send?

LMK Tuesday - I'll pay the extra shipping back to me - or if someone wants to swap their extra I'll play that game, too :)

There, was 7, so we were supposed to send in 6. Now there are six, so we are supposed to send 5. If Brianna doesn't want my extra, I will swap with you. Well, heck, even if she does, I can swap that one with you, and swap another in person with her since I am making more for the craft bazaar. LMK!

aaaaaah - I getcha - I'd love to swap with you, of course! :)

aaaaaah - I getcha - I'd love to swap with you, of course! :)

Okay, I will PM Tuesday and let her know to put 2 of mine in your box and two of yours in my box. Thanks!!! :)

has anything shown up "from me" yet? :)

not yet :p

hrmpf

:(

waiting on any others?

nak

nope LOL

well, shiite. :(

<tap, tap, tap>

I would have thought they'd be there by now. I even picked a place that was closer to you for shipping reasons :(

Sorry girls!!!! :o

Hey - what's your PP?

Let me pay shipping, mkay?

well, shiite. :(

<tap, tap, tap>

I would have thought they'd be there by now. I even picked a place that was closer to you for shipping reasons :(

Sorry girls!!!! :o
is there any way to track the shipping? :D

no - I didn't get tracking info from either one. I can PM eve mary and see if she has it.

Why don't you see if you can find out when things were shipped, postage is going to be pretty heavy on these I think...a lot of the stuff wieghs quite a bit LOL

:( This sucks.

I emailed both people to check on tracking. Both payments were a week ago - they should be there by now! :(

I'm really sorry.

It's okay! I'm still looking for boxes for everything. Plus the bad feedback for late shippers starts on all *new* swaps LOL :p

It's okay! I'm still looking for boxes for everything. Plus the bad feedback for late shippers starts on all *new* swaps LOL :p

You can get those flat rate boxes free at the PO since the packages will all be over a couple of pounds, It's probably the best deal. Unless of course you're gonna ship fedex ground/

Well, I heard back from Evemary overnight and she did have DC on it and it said:
Tracking order shows that it was delivered at 1:23pm on the Oct 12th

She offered to send another package out today if you haven't gotten it yet, and then to have you send back the other one if it shows up... but I hate for her to be out $35 in soap. :( Hell. I don't know what to do.

Sandi :( I'm a dumbass...I'm sorry. EveMry did send them, I totally blanked about them being sent from someone else in your behalf when they came and my brain just didn't equate them :( I knew I didn't see your name yet, and so I just had a brain fart I guess...

They're here. :( I just don't have Hastings' package yet. I'm going to update, PM and then hopefully get these out soon if Hastings has shipped hers.

Don't hate me :( I feel like shyza' for that :(


Oh, and you are right, Stacy, Flat Rate is probably best, it'll probably be the cheapest too! LOL

I'm going to update the OP (like I should have been doing the whole time so that poor Sandi didn't get momentary freak out because I'm a moron ROFL)

ooooooooh WHHHHHHEW!!!!!!!!!!!!

:heart: No worries at all!!! :smooch: I'm so glad they arrived.

There's another package of salts coming - or should be - but I'm just tremendously relieved that they're there. :hug:
Thanks, girly.

(What on earth are you doing up already?) :)

I'm sorry :( I'm embarrassed and I feel badly for freaking you out (well, and for speaking before I was certain :/. ) I'm sorry :(

Whew.

lol

Oh, I had to get some paperwork out before Nick left for work this morning, and since he leaves at 6:30, I had to be up at 5:30 LOL AYYYYY YI YI ;)

Did everything arrive?

We were waiting for two packages, one got here yesterday evening (well, afternoon but I didn't get the mail until evening ROFL) and one was shipped on Friday, so I anticipate it will be here today or tomorrow, I hope!

BTW, Sandi, your 2nd package was the one that arrived last night. :p

Oh, and I made a cute little cover for our relaxation CD's, I think it's darn cute if I do say so myself LOL :p

excellent - the lady apologized profusely - I'm glad she didn't hold everything up!

Did the last package arrive?

No Stacy :( It hasn't. Hastings said it was mailed not this past weekend, but the end of the week before...surely it will be here soon?? Hastings? Do you know what day exactly it was mailed on?
