CLOSED: Happy Holiday Seed Swap Season #2

La Salle, MI(Zone 5b)

This Swap is now closed, so let the fun Begin *grin* :o)

Once again it gives me great pleasure to host a second Happy Holiday Seed Swap :o)
We had such fun with the last one, I thought I'd give it another shot *grin*

I am looking for only 15 ppl to join this swap, so sign up while the spots last. :o) I will be # 16

The way it will work,
You will each send 15 (yes only 15) Happy Holiday Seed Packets to me in a bubble envelope, along with return postage & labels enclosed. PLEASE Put - Happy Holiday Swap on the outside of the envelope... and your DG user ID and Number you signed up under.

Decorate your seed packs happy holiday style :o)

They can be all one kind of seed or a variety... If they are big seeds at least 8 to a pack and 20 at least for smaller seeds...That way who ever Winter Sows can do half and plant the rest in the Spring.

Have all seeds to me by Dec 1st... So I can have them in the Mail by Dec 5th...If all seeds are received sooner, then they will get mailed out sooner...

P.S. Anyone outside of the US will have to send correct US postage or funds, you can pay by paypal with the correct fees applied to the amount sending.

Happy Holiday's Everyone :o)

Okay this swap is filled and now closed.... :o) So let the fun begin :o)

I want to welcome each of you, I hope you all have a great time... The way it worked in the past was once everyone had their 15 packs decorated and ready to go, we would list any extra seeds that we had to share and who ever wanted them first, got them. we would put the persons number on them to who they go to and when I receive them I would put it in there envy :o) It worked out really great... So please be sure to put your # and screen name and Happy Holiday Swap in the lower Left Hand corner of the envelope...

We can do a small gift exchange if you all would like, There are 16 of us and I can send you all a name to get a gift for, that way we are only buying one gift. You all decide and let me know, I also thought as far as the gift goes, you could send that directly to the person you get... You all set the price amount, 3, 5, 10, 15, or 20... I know not everyone can afford high cost gifts and I don't want anyone filling pressured... So talk amongst yourselfs and let me know what you decide :o)

Hey Connie, Your little one is very cute. Brand new? I love the Halloween outfit. Boy or girl? My munchkin-who is 11yrs old...not so little anymore : ( spent the a.m. in the emergency room(2nd time in a week and a half). This time for a serious skin infection where he had a tetanus shot for a puncture that he had to get stitches(the previous visit) It all looks good, but he was ordered to stay home and do serious vegging out. He, of course, was happy with that order and is cartooning it up as I type!

Northeast, LA(Zone 8a)

The gift exchange is good with me if that is what the majority wants. Always fun. Cindy

Lindenwold, NJ(Zone 7a)

Connie your new munchkin is adorable. Grandbabies are so precious. I would love to have more, but my kids are not sharing my desire for more grandbabies, I wonder why, lol. Mine is 5 years going on 30 and he already loves the girls.

Kathy...I am glad your grandson is going to be ok. With all the thinks the kids are exposed to, you can't be to careful.

A gift exchange is a great idea. It is fine with me, if that is what the majority rules.

i just love presents. please can we have a gift exchange

La Salle, MI(Zone 5b)

Kathy, she's a girl lol Jlyn Breann, she was born October 15th @ 2:20pm. She is my first great grandbaby :o)

Thanks Patricia, don't you just love it when they think they know all the answers at such a young age rofl... :o)

For everyone that can't afford to do the gift exchange, please dmail me or if there is another unforseen reason you can't do it. I can match the names and dmail you your partners for all those that are interested and then you can dmail the name you receive to get a short list of things they like :o) It doesn't matter to me what you set your gifts at. You can discuss that with the person you exchange with. Lord I hope that made since rofl, its been a long long day.

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

connie, you have d-mail

La Salle, MI(Zone 5b)

Ok, lets have the gift exchange and those of you who don't want to participate please dmail me that you don't want in on the exchange... The seed swap is the main project :-)

I will set up the gift exchange as soon as I hear from the rest.

You all have a great night, I am going to spend my last evening with my son, who is visiting from Oak Harbor, Washington. He has to be at the airport by 7 am :( But it was good to have him home for the past 2 weeks. Its hard to say when he will get to come home again or we get to go out there.

Shenandoah Valley, VA

Shoot, Connie. I just saw this. I'll try to catch the next one.

Cocoa Beach, FL(Zone 10a)

Birmingham, AL(Zone 7b)

Fine here!

Cocoa Beach, FL(Zone 10a)

When you decorate your holiday seed pkgs., please make mine BIRTHDAY as they will be my birthday gift seeds. I will be 65 years young! I've often felt that December birthdays get shortchanged because it is so close to Christmas So this will be my mail order birthday party. Yeah, you're all invited. It is a Danish custom for the birthday host to give a gift to the attendees, so I am offering a choice of seeds: Pick one and dmail me, be sure to give me your handle and number.
1. Dutch Iris, mixed colors
2. Drumstick Allium
3. Love Mist

Birmingham, AL(Zone 7b)

No way. To be my mom, you are only 56!!

La Salle, MI(Zone 5b)

We're getting ready to leave for the airport here shortly, so a quick note.

Everyone but mittsy do one seed pack in birthday wrap ;o)

and mittsy, I don't have time to dmail ya so I would love to have the Drumstick Allium, had to google it, that will go nice with the one my cousin gave me :o) Thanks for the offer....

My night didn't go as planned, I spent it at the hospital with my grandaughter and great grandbaby, Jlyn got choked and quit breathing on us, (turned purple and everything) scared the crapp out of me. They are keeping her for a 24 hr monitoring, so don't know when I will get a chance to get back on the PC today. So please say a prayer for her, this is the 3rd time this has happened, but the first time she stopped breathing so long. Will let you all know how she is later this evening.

Connie

Birmingham, AL(Zone 7b)

Love mist, Mittsy!!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

connie, sorry to her about the baby. she is in my prayers.
