Down here in Florida, it has been one long hot and humid day after another. I find myself looking forward to Fall. So , if any of you are also interested, I am hosting The Fall Preview Swap. With shipping prices higher, let's keep the swap to 3 fall themed items. We still have another month until out Apple Swap so I thought this swap would help set the stage for our fall fun we seem to enjoy every year.
Sign ups will last though July 31. Partners will be posted August 1st.
We have 9 people signed up so these partners are listed I'm a round robin style
Winnie to Julie
Julie to Denise
Denise to Karen
Karen to Debbie F.
Debbie F. to Wanda Sue
Wanda Sue to Connie
Connie to Sherry
Sherry to Kelly
Kelly to Winnie
Thank-you all for signing up! Let's get some fall vibe into our Farmgirls homes. The persistence heat and humidity still reigns King here in the Swamp!!

So glad you enjoyed your package Connie Sue! We love the Autumn Mix too, and swipe it up as soon as it shows up in stores. Yes I made the shaker tassel, I have been obsessed ever since we had a shaker tassel swap several years ago! Every time I thrift shop I’m looking for salt shakers and ribbons.
Yours is actually a place card holder that I found at Hobby Lobby, but it works the same, and I already had a large assortment of fall ribbons.

Lovely fall packages. I am so ready for fall. We've had a lot of rain but that has kept our temps cooled down. However the rain has been excessive. Does make it feel a little like fall.

Thank you Debbie F for my sweet Summer/Fall package, I love it all so much!! She included lots of ephemera, like leaves, apple buttons, bee button, stickers and the fabric panel of summer’s harvest is beautiful.

Kelly, your wonderful Fall package arrived today and it was such fun pm opening the fun goodies you found for me! I love it all. My computer refuses to post any of my photos and I have spent the last few minutes trying this and that but nothing works . However, that does not spoil one second to all the fun I had today and will continue to have this fall with these new things to put out and enjoy. It will be wonderful when we all can have a change inn the hot and humid weather and enjoy the cooler days of Fall. Thank-you !
Farmgirl Hugs,
Winnie

I guess I am the odd duck as I do not enjoy candy corn. I never liked it as a child and I guess that didn't change when I became an adult but I love, love, love the autumn time of year!

I like candy corn! It’s yummy to eat and easy to use as decor…or in the classroom for counting or bingo markers! :)

Connie, YES!! That pumpkin grin will definitely carry me to Fall. Oh how I love pumpkins grinning on the steps at Halloween. They are just the best fun and always making kids and adults (like me) smile too.
I am very happy so many other farm girls are tired of the unrelenting heat and humidity weather besides me. For me Fall brings happy memories of cooler days, leaves slowly changing colors, the need for sweaters in the mornings and sunny warm afternoons, and apples hanging on trees and filling roadside stands in many states. Plus, I have to add that Sara Knight and I love candy corn. It is the sign Fall is on its way when we open that first bag and fill a glass jar with those orange, yellow and white tipped seasonal treats. Anyone else like candy corn?
