To CELEBRATE the 1 year anniversary of the gift exchange starting up again, we're going to mix it up just a bit and have it be like "Secret Santa" where each person is randomly assigned another person to give gifts to (rather than pick pairs) - all other rules will still apply! You must be a member for 90 days. Be semi-active on the board. There has been too many that did not get or send a gift. I'm very sorry for those that are new and want to join in on the fun. Just stick around and you can join in.
1.The names are put into a hat, I then pull 2 names and they become buddies. I do however, try and make sure that no 2 people are buddies month after month. 2.You will have the entire month to send your gift. 3.If you do not send or get a gift, the offending person will be banned from the exchange for 3 months. 4.On the 1st of each month I will post the buddy results. On approximately the 5th of the month I will start a new thread for the next months sign-up. 5.Any questions or comments are appreciated. Please pm them to me or do it in another topic. 6.There is a $15 minimum, just because there are younger ones here that can't afford much. You are welcome to spend more, but do not assume just because you spent $50 that the other person is going to as well. 7.I can not stress enough that all items MUST BE NEW!! Its a waste to send used/opened items. The only exception is if your buddy says its ok. Otherwise, please send new never used items. 8.The items do not have to be expensive, but they do have to be NEW/Never Used. For those who sign-up, please be sure to send me your wish list and mailing address (PM or email, either way is fine with me) so I can let your buddy know what to send and where to send it to. This information will ONLY be shared with your buddy. |

She also included a barn (guess that means my kids can keep their's lol), 2 dinner plates, 2 soft toys to be stuffed with fleece, 1 already stuffed with fleece, a pig toy, sheep toy, cowboy rubber duck, freeze dried crickets, AND easter eggs & pompoms that match the theme! Thank you soo much Lisa!!:
Here is an up close of the pattern on the flannel-isn't it adorable!!:
The little fleece stuffed/to be stuffed animals:
I took some purple apple buckets I recieved in the last gift exchange & tied them to luuluu's one of a kind heart vine for foraging. I think it matches well :)
I put the pompoms in the purple apple buckets :)
Love it!!! :D LuuLuu is AWSOME!!! :) ~Erica~ |

You will have a buddy, no worries :) Just waiting to hear back from the last person with their info so I can match you all up. You weren't the only one who wasn't able to send their info in by the 1st so there are buddies to be matched up with Next month it will be back to normal, but Karen and I wanted to do something special for the 1 year anniversary and I think it will be a lot of fun |

Buddies have been sent out!!! If you did not receive a buddy, you should ave a message from me asking for your info as I did not have it. If you get back to me soon, I can still match you up with someone :) |
petluv15 Posted - Jun 30 2012 : 08:22:02 PM
Last chance - anyone else want in?!?!?!? It'll be fun - guaranteed! |
LuuLuu Posted - Jun 30 2012 : 08:09:58 PM
I think if someone doesn't know who I am (or know of me) by now, then they are surely new around here!
