brown paper packages

Did you get the movie reference from my title? "The hills area alive! With the Sound of Music! Ah. Ah. Ah. Ah." My Grandma had this movie and LOVED to watch it whenever we came over. Do you know how long that movie is? She had a VHS copy. I would make it through the first movie and then would disappear for a "potty break" and conveniently find something else to do.

I digress...

Remember my top 10 favorite things? Check it out here. Here is a chance for you to share your favorite things with someone else; kind of like a pen pal, but with packages!

Who: You
What: Favorite Things Summer Swap
When: July 17-August 31, 2013
Why: Because everyone loves receiving a package of goodies in the mail

THE DETAILS:
  • Sign up by emailing me with your name and address (You can also share this post so more people can participate). 
  • I will then randomly select a swap partner for everybody and email them the address of the person they will send to. It is totally up to you if you want to let them know who you are or if you want to remain anonymous. 
  • Put together a package of fun assorted goodies of some of your favorite things. Jump on over to the post office and send it off, and then eagerly wait by your mailbox for your package to arrive! It's a lot of fun to gather things to send, and even more fun to see what you get!

**I would love to see all of your favorite things! Take pictures of the gifts you receive (or send), email them to me before September 4, 2013 and I will share those pics here.


THE SWAP STIPULATIONS: 
  • You must sign up by July 17, 2013
  • You must spend at least $15 (before shipping) on your package, just to make it fair. Please only include items that you would like to receive yourself--no junk
  • You must mail your package by August 31, 2013

Let me know if you have any questions, and happy swapping!

  1. Hey--I'm a friend of Peggy's. She posted about this on her blog. I had a blast doing this when she did it--and would love to do it again. Where do I e-mail my info?
