I'll be uploading photos shortly but put more in than I took pictures of and one thing didn't make it in.

This box was stuffed. I took out quite a bit and still had to stuff my items in it.
What I took out - Thank you Brandy for the kitty stuff and the Thickers and to Monroe for the Ireland items

What I put in. Note - I forgot the large stencil in the photo but was adding 8x8 pps and some other small embellies - ribbons, sequins

Yay! Enjoy those kitty embellies and Thickers! Looks like you grabbed the large stencil and some MME vellum papers I put in too! Glad they are going to a good home. :)

I forgot to post or PM - the box is on it's way to wherever it's suppposed to go (my brain was so focused on "hurry and get back to the NSD challenges" that I wasn't paying attention). I think I heard the clerk say TN...hopefully someone on the list lives in TN otherwise I have no idea what label I used! I did a little repackaging and consolodiating and managed to get everything in a large flat rate box. I just LOVE these swap boxes!!! TY TY for hosting / organizing!

Box #2's journey is complete!  It has made it's way back to me.  I haven't had a chance to sort through it yet - but it's packed!

Flora (mycreativeroots) is currently in the hospital - so I'm sure that once she is home and feeling up to it, she will post if she has received box #1 and has sent it back on it's way to me.

Once I receive box #1 - I will sort through both and then get ready for sign ups again for another round of box swaps!  I anticipate that there will be some things that I can't use and I will be either sending those items back out into the box swaps or donating them to a local preschool/day care that has expressed interest in having some supplies.

That is a great idea for the stuff left over, I have done that with some of my old stuff, they seem to always be happy to have it!

That is a great idea to donate some crafty items to the local day care!  I'm sure they would appreciate it and what a great way to spur creativity in our little ones.  Thanks so much for organizing this Rebecca!  I'm sure it's a lot of work but we seem to all enjoy it so much.  I'm already looking forward to round three.

Sorry to hear that Flora is in the hospital. I was worried when I didn't hear from her receiving the box.

Good idea to donate items to preschool. I donate some of my items to a teacher and she shares with others in her school.
