Sign up for Secret Sister Swap (four months only)
May - June - July - August
This Secret Sister sign ups start March 26th and will end on April 23rd. (this gives you some time to think before you sign up) The giving period for this round will be from May 15th 2012 to August 15th 2012
Sorry, but this is for Sisters in the US only.
How it works...
On April 27th, I will pull names out of a hat and match it with another. The secret sister that you send to will not be the same one that sends to you!
On or about the 15th of each month you are required to send your secret sister a small gift or token. It can be store purchased or hand made. It can be a regifted item or something you have at home. It can be a card or note. The important thing is that you send something
When you receive a gift, please post a note letting everyone know that you have received and a little discription or a photo of what you received. I will start a new thread for these posts in May titled "gifts received from May, June, July, August SS Swap".
Please use Mary Janes Farm as the return address (this will keep your real return address secret).
Here is the address:
Mary Janes Farm
1000 Wild Iris Lane
Moscow, Idaho
83843
At the end of the swap, August 15th, send your last note (or gift) to your partner and let her know that you were her secret sister!
Most Important!!!!! - Please only sign up for this if you are sincerely interested in following through, we do not want a sister to send to her secret sister and receive nothing in return! That would just not be right!
To sign up, please email me on or after the 26th of March with the following info.
1. Your full real name.
2. Your MJF screen name.
3. Your full mailing address
4. Your e-mail address
5. Your birthday Month and date (no year)
6. And of course, a few of your favorite things, such as favorite color, what you like to collect, coffee or tea, etc. This helps you secret sister know what perhaps to send you!
Lets make this fun for everyone.

Received a wonderful package of salt water taffy and a garden ornament that looks like a seahorse. Posting a big thank you here just in case it is from my secret sister. Will post pics later this evening.

Oh, Peggy Ann - thank you so much for the kind words! I can't tell you how much I needed to hear them! I am actually trying to keep the tears at bay because I am at work. I just posted on another thread apologizing to you again along with everyone else I may have put off. Thank you so much for understanding! It means so much. Maybe someday I will get it together and be on time if for nothing else than my own funeral!
Hugs,
Lora

Lora...look what I got in the mail today...CHRISTMAS!!!!! LOL Oh girlfriend you really outdid yourself
on this pkg. WOW Thank You So Very Much!!! You were a great Secret Sister and I didn't care at all that
I got late gifts because you always knocked my socks off with what you did send. Like this Revealing
Pkg. I loved everything you sent: the little books, the linens, the pot holder, tea towels...but I was
just over the Moon with all the adorable Scotty Dog Stuff! I can not wait to put the little Scotty Plate up on my wall, and the leather photo frame holder is so cute, and the little Scotty figurine. All just
so precious! I love all things Scotties!!!! I have the perfect picture of our Scotty to put in that frame, it is one where he looks like he is smiling! Tell your hubby thanks so much for finding the little
figurine. That was neat that he got in the action...I loved that.
Guess what a little birdie told me today? That you and I are both Oct birthday girls....and just five
days apart. Yours being the 20th and mine being the 25th. How cool is that? I knew I really liked YOU! lol
Thanks again for all your wonderful packages. You made this one of my best SS experiences to date.
Farmgirl Hugs and Love,
Peggy

Wow - what a last couple of months!! First and foremost - Thank you to my secret sister for the wonder gifties! Loved them all. I thought the little tractor was so cute. It's on the top of the kitchen cabinets in our new house - YES we've moved it!
Second - let me apologize to my secret sister for making her wait so long to get her last two boxes. It was never my intention to make her wait so long. Her last package was mailed out this week. So so sorry! I do hope you enjoy it though!
Thanks for being patient and I will get some pictures posted in a couple of days. Thanks for understanding!
Hugs,
Lora

I am sorry to hear your ss hasn't responded. Maybe they were like the one I was SS to she wasn't ever on anything much and maybe she forgot what she had joined. I wish her best anyway.
