My mother-in-law sent this to Jeff and Kenny, but I've already played it 3 times with a high sherry count and I can't stop laughing. Oh my, people...don't drink and hunt; that's all I gotta say.

August 2008: Local & Fair Trade Swap Sign-up!
08-6-2008 · 5 Comments
Last month’s swap goodies have rolled in and now sign-up has been posted for a new swap. I must say I was thrilled with my swap goodies from my swap buddie, froglette79. She sent me a pair of amazingly soft, 700 ct. white organic cotton pillowcases and a year subscription to one of my favorite magazines, REAL SIMPLE.
I sent her a pair of soft, organic cotton pillowcases too, but mine were a shade of celery, not white. I also sent a copy of Diana Gabaldon’s book, Outlander. I was thrilled to learn that she consumed the book as fast as I did when I first received it in an earlier swap from Karen. I also enjoyed wrapping up her gift with some of my seaside findings.
And now, it is time for a new swap! That’s right! Join us now for the August 2008: Local & Fair Trade Swap.
Comb your local markets and after viewing your swap buddie’s likes/dislikes, decide what item or items might best fit her while still representing your local town or region. I’m really excited to see where this one takes us!

I love the way your wrapped the gift/swap with the seashells–it is just beautiful! Your ideas always amaze me! Beautiful, simple, visually happy!
Blessings!
I second Octamom’s comment. Simple, yet beautiful :)
So beautiful! When we get house stuff settled I’ll be joining into the swaps. It looks like so much fun!
I’m going to tag you on my blog, it’s a simple tag that doesn’t take up much time. If you can’t complete I totally understand. Stop by there to get some directions!
I’m in!!! I haven’t received my swap yet, but my swap buddy just received the one I sent her. The Canadian border is SLOOOOOOOOW.
I did love those seashells. They are beautiful. I’m thinking of making a couple of necklaces for my girls out of them since they already have a hole drilled.
I’m pretty excited about the next swap too. I can’t wait!
