I'm awfully sleep deprived this week because of Leila's surgery and recovery.. so y'all have to help me a bit if you want me to do it.
I don't mind collecting things and sending them out, but I'd want to just do flat rate priority boxes to return things in - with delivery confirmation. Obviously, shipping to canada would be different. I can either collect that too, or we can handle shipping directly to/from our Canadian participants.
Dates? Do we want it divided by age group, or do we just want to make sure that if there's under a certain number of kids, we send something for each child? Do we want a mama swap? Do we want to post likes/dislikes/favorite colors, etc? Basically, how do y'all want this to run? I couldn't care less, actually, whether I'm making individual things or a ton of one thing, etc.
I'll take input through Sunday and post something officialish on Monday if that works for y'all.
I am looking for little stocking treasures for my kiddos. handmade little items......Im trying to think of some examples from past....fairy foods, bendies,bendy accessories,wooden beads and yarn kits, wool foodies, wool goodies,.... that sort of thing.
something can be purchased as well...little wood items, fancy type stones in little pouches,....
anyway, you get the idea....feel free to request things as well....
I will have to ship individually.
Please jump in !!! Its a lot of fun to get mail !!

Thats a generous offer Jody, hows the little one ??
she seems to be turning the corner - I think the scabs have come off and we're just dealing with a little soreness. She napped 2 hours with me yesterday and then slept 9 pm to 7 am before she woke up crying. That was amazing and would have been a nice amount of sleep - but Josh threw up 6 times, and I was up with him. I was sick yesterday, Eric was sick the day before and stayed home yesterday... so far, Lindsey's doing okay though, but my house is fairly miserable at the moment.
well, I will swap with 3 or 8 people. it dosent matter. Those who are interested...let me know if the items I had listed are what you had in mind or not.
Post.Pm me.
whatever you like, I would like to get started on making them !!!
Share your ideas of what you would like to find in your mail !!
I'll get it figured out and something posted by the weekend. My theory currently is that what we do will depend on how many sign up... less than 10 kids, we can do stuff for each child.. more than that, we'll do it by age group. That work?
I personally dont want to make 6 or 7 different things....
I can do 2 for different groups but if everyone has 3 or more kiddos...that will be a bit much.
anyway lets start a list with maybe 6 slots and try to get more people to join !!
Mamas who are watching this thread.....you dont have to be super crafty !! just a little creative !! come and join, we can walk you through any questions and post ideas !!
Its fun really.........promise !!!
Its really great to have truly unique little gifts in the stockings !!!
I would be interested in this, just have to think of something I can make.
