Since mother nature is teasing and tempting so many of us with fall like weather the past couple of mornings.
How about a Fall Swap? Similar to a feel good swap you could send your favorite spiced cider,fall treat,candle,towel set, ect to your partner.
We could sign ups from now till Sept.5th and I will match everyone at random to a partner and we ship by the 11th giving us time to shop.Swap Value is no more then $15.
Simply post your likes and any dislikes or allergies you might have.
I did this last year and got some really cool little glass bottles that are sitting in my kitchen.

let the sing ups begin.

I am pretty easy on likes and dislikes.

I have a 1 cup coffee maker so if sending coffee it has be able to be used in those machines.
I like teas,candles (just no floral scents please),ect.
Fall rug for the front porch

I cant wait for the surprises.
