I love the night time/celestial idea. Just imagining little stars and planets

Are we still using these for fairie gifts though? (Mine are hanging out in a box waiting for L to grow up to the point that swallowing won't be an issue lol.) Just thinking if that's the case that drifting toward something fairies might leave and hanging close to the seasons and nature is a good idea.

I like nightime/celestial and dollhouse, so either is good with me. We use our tiny things as gifts that the fairies have left. Then they go over to our nature table, some of them, others stay in Duncan's fairy box. We could always do both

mom2kbeth · 12-10-2005, 12:06 PM

I think we should go with night/celestial, since this is the dark half of the year. It would make sense for our fairies to leave items of that sort at this time of year. And they will be cool little things to dress up a middle of winter nature table too

Are you goin gto make this a double tiny things swap, with us sending a set (per child) of night/celestial and a set of dollhouse minis?

That would work for me

But I'm easy...LOL

Gronilot · 12-10-2005, 12:30 PM

I have a few ideas, but am afraid to mention them, as I don't know if I can handle more swaps until these are done..LOL

But I was thinking, Native American, Circus, Pioneer,

mom2kbeth · 12-10-2005, 03:06 PM

Pioneer -- that would be awesome! I would love a Little House on the Prairie type swap once these are all finished. We love LHOP and have done LHOP camp and all withour homeschooling gorup. That would be an awesome swap

I have a little list sitting here next to the computer of the swaps i want to do once these are over, I am adding pioneer to my list

I won't post any sign ups until after the holidays though for any new ones. I have a few in mind to be due in March/April.

PolkaDot · 12-10-2005, 03:35 PM

I still watch LHOP

That sounds like a really fun swap...

I am not sure my heart can take this...LOL.

huntersmama · 12-10-2005, 04:02 PM

i love those ideas but no new swaps till fter the new year please

i am gonna be up till 3am every night till Feb as it is

Mamaselena · 12-10-2005, 10:18 PM

sneaking in new swap talk in another post... SHAME SHAME SHAME!!!

(don't forget Easter!)

TraceyH · 12-10-2005, 10:30 PM

don't we need continual swaps? I think yes!!! I haven't even completed one yet and I am just going crazy over this!!

I think a camp-out one would be good too. Tents, sleeping bags, etc. Love the pioneer, Lil House idea too.

What about American Indians (not just for Thanksgiving around here).

OK, sorry Selena. I know you said to stop it

PolkaDot · 12-11-2005, 12:18 AM

LALALALALA..plugging ears...LALALALA..Not listening..LALALA

I am so kidding...LOL. I did get my New Years swap almost finished today and played with some ideas for the Valenties Day one..its coming along..but I think we should wait until after the first of the year to post anymore...

Well....I think I can wait that long...LOL

mom2kbeth · 12-11-2005, 01:19 AM

We only said we wouldn't START any new swaps ... we never said we wouldn't TALK about the ones we are going to start after the first of the year

starkl · 12-11-2005, 02:08 PM

Oh man guys, I can't keep up with you!!!!!!!!! LOL so what do you think, celestial and dollhouse? or just celestial? or Little House on the Prairie, or or or?????

mom2kbeth · 12-11-2005, 02:15 PM

What about keeping this one as just night/celestial, and then doing the next one as a double tiny things swap - dollhouse AND train table (so that we woul dinclude stuff for the boys and the girls; Holden is getting a train table for xmas and will need some cute accessories, lol). Then when we do the Prairie/Pioneer nature table swap we can also set up a pioneer tiny things swap, either to just send with yoru pioneer nature table swap stuff or a separate swap entirely. How does that sound?

But we won't start the dollhouse/train table or the pioneer ones until after the holidays. Just wait to see how many swaps end up getting posted at midnight on 1/1, lol!

huntersmama · 12-11-2005, 02:16 PM

i'm good with either althought i think nighttime/celestial is rather fitting for the time of year. i can't wait.

if we decide quick i may just be able to get my items to you tuesday
