I want to mail mine to you but i ma not really sure how to do it.
Should I include a selfaddressed stamped envelope? Do i put stamps of money for returned postage?

I am happy with the way things turned out. I did cruella deville as my villan and inculded a couple of extras.

Bag each persons stuff individually so you will have 6 bags.
Put those into 1 larger ziploc bag. This way if they get wet the paper inside won't get ruined.
Since it is such a small group I know you are in group 1 but in the future either put a label on the bags or slip a piece of paper in with your name and group #.
I can do an address label so that's no big deal.
When you go to the post office get a priority flat rate envelope, it will cost $4.05 and then just put another $4.05 stamp inside the large ziploc bag.
I have more envelopes here so don't worry about putting another one in.

Does that make sense?
I'm also PMing you!

[hiclarke]

Be expecting the package in the next couple of days - thanks for hosting!

[logan&tylersmama]

I mailed mine out on Sat. so it should be there soon. If the price of gas wasnt so expensive, i could have just driven it to you:drive: Sat. Here in CT was WONDERFUL!! 72 degrees in Jan. is unheard of!!
THanks for hosting.
Jennifer

[BernardandMissBianca]

hiclarke I got yours on Sat! L&Tmom I'll keep a look out for it. Sat was gorgeous, DH took the boys out to race their cares and I went to a crop. We had to turn the A/C on.:thumbsup2

[BernardandMissBianca]

L&Tmama and mickeyfan2, I got your stuff today!

[PrincessNancy96]

Looks like things are coming along smoothly!! Yeah!!! ;)

[YodasMom]

I'm almost done! I will be mailing priority with DC tomorrow. They should be there by the end of the week.:)

[Queenie]

Mine should be coming tomorrow now my computer's working. I've been having a total nightmare with it again :( Just need to finish 2 things tonight!

[Stitch#1]

My pieces went postal today!!!!!:banana:
You should have it by the end of the week!

[BernardandMissBianca]

Yay!!!

[Michellepooh]

Mine will be mailed priority tomorrow. They've actually been done for days, I just haven't gotten to the post office to mail them. We started a huge addition on our house so it's been very crazy here!

[Michellepooh]

Mailed this morning, as promised! :thumbsup2

They should be there by Saturday.

[YodasMom]

HalloWishes and the Headless Horseman are on their way to your house, Buffy. Watch out!! :scared1: You should receive them Friday or Saturday.

Thanks to both Queenie and Buffy for hosting this great swap!! :thumbsup2

Question for group 1

Would you mind it the topper went down instead of across? I found a really cool picture of the flags and I thought it would make a cool topper but it hangs down.

sounds good to me - i say go for it. Are people really that picky?
Jennifer

[Michellepooh]

Buffy -
That's sounds great. Can't wait to see it!

[BernardandMissBianca]

Are people really that picky?
Jennifer

Some are.;)

[Queenie]

I hope no one's too picky because my Hallowishes non specified item is a horizontal border! Mine are postal (finally!) Sorry guys :( I've not been feeling well and every time I tried to do things they just messed up or looked awful, I ended up crying over them one night this week I was just so stressed! Glad it's done, now I've just got a big essay to do by the 26th that i haven't even started the research for :(

[logan&tylersmama]

Oh Queenie - dont cry. You know when you get to that point its time to walk away. Hope your feeling better soon!
whats your essay on - maybe we can help. I am so glad that I am done with school - talk about stressful!:scared1:
Take care of yourself!
Jennifer

[Michellepooh]

It's OK Queenie - your work is always gorgeous!

I know how overwhelming school can be. After I got my Master's I told DH that if I even mention going for a Ph.D. to just shoot me! Just know that there is an end in sight!

[BernardandMissBianca]

I got Yodasmom's and Michellepooh's today!
And Stitch#1's yesterday!

[PrincessNancy96]

Yeah! This swap is almost done!! And you are only waiting on one mailer and your items!!

[Queenie]

My essay title is:
"With reference to a family history you have been investigating, demonstrate how you can use family history to understand the history of families more generally." 1500 - 2000 words

I'm actually doing science at university, this was just for a break as my course allows me to pick anything I want out of the prospectus and add them together to make up the degree - it's fantastic. I'm taking a break when this is done and not starting another course until May as I need the time to get my business up and running and to have some time to look after myself as I've been getting overly stressed too often and it's not good for me. I've also decided to have next year off as my course would be running Feb - Oct and I'm getting married in Sept and it would be just way too much!! Astro physics and wedding planning do not make good bed fellows!

Yo know we are all expecting handmade invitations right?!?!? LOL J/K
Maybe a virtual bridal shower is in order! I'll provide the Chippendale Dancers!

[Michellepooh]

Congrats on getting married Queenie - I had no idea. This certainly is a busy time for you!!!!!!!! B&MB - count me in for a bridal shower. You bring the Chippendales, I'll bring the refreshments.

[PrincessNancy96]

Buffy, are you the one who insisted they put the Chippendale dancers in a commercial here?? I about fell of the couch laughing.. I'm there for the virtual bridal shower! I have the drinks!!! Any requests???

Twas not me!;)
Oh and I'll have the usual!:drinking1

[StitchIsOurHero]

Queenie--I didn't know you were getting married, either! I must be behind!! I'm so there for the virtual shower. . .and, of course, the Chippendale dancers!!

Good luck on your research paper!! :thumbsup2

[Queenie]

Thanks guys, virtual shower sounds good, we don't do bridal showers over here so no pressies for me! My mum and aunt are going in together to buy us an engagement gift, we've asked for money for driving lessons as I so need to be driving to visit all these dress shops!!!!

We have the wedding venue picked and need to put the deposit down in the next two weeks to secure it - £750 ($1300 ish) , yipes the spending begins!! Luckily my mum just had some savings mature and she's giving it all to us so that's gonna really help!

[BernardandMissBianca]

I got Queenie's stuff today so I'm hoping for a quick turn around and for them to be out by tomorrow!!!

I will post a new thread with sent/received and pictures!

Thanks Queenie for the great idea! Everything is fab!

[PrincessNancy96]

Cool!!! Wow! Isn't this before the due date too????

[BernardandMissBianca]

Yesterday was the due date, if it weren't for the holiday it would have gotten here yesterday!
Great work everyone!

[YodasMom]

Wow, that was quick mail service from UK!! Looking forward to seeing everything! :cool1:

By the way, Congratulations on your engagement, Queenie, and good luck on your paper!:thumbsup2

[Stitch#1]

Woo Hoo!!!
Can't wait to see everyones work!

[BernardandMissBianca]
