Unfortunately sign-up's for this exchange have closed. There are several other exchanges that you can currently sign up for though! You can check out the exchange link thread at the top to see what exchanges are taking sign-up's and what exchanges are coming up in the near future!

Exchanges are very fun ~ and very addicting. You would just sign up by sending the host a PM with your name, address and email address. Then when sign-up's close, the host will PM you the person you are to send your package off to! Then when you send/receive your package you check in on the sent/received thread for that exchange to update on your packages!!

There will be another ornament exchange at Christmas time...be sure to check back for that one! Sorry you missed this one ~ hope to see you in other exchanges!!

I'm glad that you liked the package. I hope it brings some cool weather your way. It's still 100 degrees here in NC. Sorrry I forgot to put my DIS name Maureenmouse on the card. I'm still new at this exchange stuff, but it sure is fun and addicting. Amanda is happy that you liked the angel ornament that she made. She's already working on making them for Christmas for her teachers and school doesn't even start until the 25th.

I receive my ornament from Julia ( Nicks Mom) today. She sent me a Winnie the Pooh True Friends, Hallmark ornament. I don't remember seeing that one at the store, but it's one I don't have! She also sent a lime green Walt Disney World tote bag. Believe me when I say, I'll put it to good use! We're taking 3 grandkids to WDW in Oct. and it will be perfect to carry with us.

Hugs to Sandy![sjh801]
Thanks so much for the wonderful package! Sandy sent me....
a bottle of B&BW kitchen herbs soap
pooh stickers
an adorable totebag with a picture of minnie on it that came with special markers to color it with
a Snow White pencil :teeth:
4 Yankee tarts, Christmas Wreath, Snow Angel, Jack Frost, and Cranberry Peppermint
a can coozie
gift tags
and - a candy cane ornament, a snowman ornament and an adorable set of 4 pewter Longaberger basket ornaments!
Thanks again, Sandy - it felt like Christmas!

You are very welcome. So glad that it got there! I have been worried about the exchanges I sent last week. Neither of my delivery confirmations were showing up anywhere. :confused3 Good ol' USPS! At least the package did.

Have fun when it comes time to trim your tree! :santa: :santa: :santa:

I just got home and checked my mail and found a second package from Stephanie!!! In it included an ornament for each of my two boys and the new Hallmark Mickey ornament for me!!! Stephanie you are too generous. I think I have decided to start a Disney tree. I have friends who have a Christmas tree and then a second smaller theme tree. All of my new Disney ornaments will be a great start for a Disney tree!

Thank you again Stephanie!

My earring exchange took a detour too
but all the sock ones went to there new homes fine :teeth: :teeth:

I am going to remail the earring one
and if this one doesn't show soon I will head back to the mall :sad2:
and try again

All packages show as being sent......so I will do some checking to find out dates, and go from there. I would have thought that all packages would have found their way to their new homes by now ~ but I guess sometimes the good ol' snail mail gets the best of our packages!

Patsy what does this mean?


The doctor did not see as much amnionic fluid on my visit Monday, so he wanted me to get a second opinion which was fine then, but he is monitoring me and Brandon just in case I have to get induced early. My next appt. is today.

It would be better to send a different item, since the original maybe delivered in the future and then they would have two of the same ornament. I recently had a priority package with DC take 19 days to be delivered.

sjh801
08-14-2006, 11:50 PM
Nothing here yet. It must have gone on a vacation...an extended one. :crazy: I had even forgotten that it hadn't come. I think that means I am getting too busy and school hasn't even begun yet. I feel bad that the sender has to re send. :eeyore:
