Are these going to be in a flat rate priority? Just asking because that mix sounds heavy!

I may be wrong, but i think we send one for each child..dont' we????

I would love some clarification also so I can get them ready and in the mail this weekend

I was thinking we would send one for each child (which is why I think we need to limit the total number of kids participating

)

Here is the list I have, and if everyone is in we should close it now.
Sagemama- 2 kids
Mom2kbeth-1kid
Huntersmama-2 kids
Lupineperriwink-1 kid
Korwynne-2 kids (pending)
Elfmama-1 kid
Copmom- 1 kid
Craftymom- 1 kid
Shannon-1 kid

So, for instance I will make one kit for each child participating, right now 10-12, of each of the two projects I committed to. I was sooo confused during the tiny things swap, but it seemed to work well.

pm me for my addy when you need it, and shipping should be in a flat rate priority, so paypal for that to info@thesagemama.com ... what is the new flat rate charge, anyone know off the top of their head?

Flat rate still says $.385 on usps.com
Is this closed now at 12 kids? I can put these together and mail them this week. Also, since I am doing bendies and really think Danielle did a perfect job, can I just refer people to the FAQ section where Danielle posted the awesome pictures? Would anyone mind so i don't have to write out a whole book?
I will include (enough for 2 bendies I think): floss, pipe cleaners, wool blend felt, beads for heads, acorn caps and roving for hair if I can dig it out. Also a needle for sewing.

I'm in - one child.

Korwynne · 09-19-2005, 07:12 PM

I'll come up with something.

Thinking about cookie mixes

My vote is to plan on a flat rate box.

huntersmama · 09-19-2005, 09:07 PM

oh my kids would love cookie mixes

mom2kbeth · 09-19-2005, 09:48 PM

This sounds awesome! I love everyoen's ideas

And I'm glad to have the instructions cleared up ... and glad t o know that I will get one of everything for McKenna! She loves crafty things of all sorts. I will be saving a bunch of them for her stocking this winter
