Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
brown paper packages tied up with string
these are a few of my favorite things...



Valentine's Gift Exchange

This is a Favorite Things gift exchange! That means that you are not just sending one person a gift - you are sending everyone a gift! [Hang on, don't panic!] You are to find one of your favorite things - your favorite candy bar, or gum, or chapstick, cheap nail polish, sample pack of coffee, etc etc - that is between $4-6 each, and purchase five. Pack up all five of them, ship them off to Jen, and she will split them up for everyone and ship them out [She will be paypal invoicing for the cost of shipping - so keep everything small! We are aiming to keep shipping under $5!]
Deadline for shipping to Jen is February 21st. If you do not ship by this time [without reasonable explanation to either Jen or myself] then you will be disqualified from exchanges.
You may choose to do more than the limit, but you must understand that just because you spent $50 doesn't mean that you will be getting $50 worth of stuff.
Keep everything secret until after everyone receives their boxes! Don't spoil the fun!



If you have any questions, let us know!

I will PM all participants my address to send stuff to shortly.
We do have a few allergies: Nickel, mold spores/dust mites (Fabric things etc just need to be able to be washed good by the recipient).
Favorite colors:
Red
Bright greens or purple, black
Black or dark pink
Green (bright, but any green works!),
Lime/teal, deep purple/black.
Blue

I hav a variety of Priority boxes/packaging here at home, and I will pack everything up as cheaply as I can, and then let everyone know the cost of shipping.

The small flat rate boxes are around $6 to ship, and I also have some smaller priority boxes that'll vary depending on how much they weigh.

You can ship to me first class or priority. Just as long as it gets here in a reasonable amount of time. And once I get everyone's boxes, I'll divvy stuff up and mail it to everyone ASAP!

Also, let's try to keep this thread clean so everyone can easily find what is going on-- if you have questions, ask 'em, otherwise please take all chit chat over to the chatter thread. Thank you!

Hey Jen, text me when you hear on that last color please?

[Guest]

Oh, I forgot to mention! You might want to include tags, little cards, or something like that with your packages so I can stick in with the gifts so people know what came from who.

[Guest]

I've gotten one box of goodies in so far.

[amanda_allen]

Oh duh to me! I sent mine to you yesterday and forgot to send tags with them, I will put some in the mail today!

[Guest]

Okie dokie! I'll keep an eye out for both packages then.

[Guest]

Another person accounted for for shipping. Two more to go then I can put everything together and send it out! Yay!

[Guest]

Oh hey guys, ya'll who haven't shipped yet only have a few more days to get your boxes out to me! Don't forget!

[amanda_allen]

[xoerikae]

There are ten days left, right?
I have something in particular in mind, but it was given to me as a gift so I have to figure out where to find it!

[Guest]

Reminder: All packages to have be mailed to me today!

[Guest]

Okay! It looks like I am going to need $9.45 from everyone for shipping. The boxes ended up being a little heavier than expected!

You can send it to sales@sugarmountain.me, and once everyone is paid up I'll ship out!
