Ribbon Swap--COMPLETE

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

Sign-ups October 15--10 am Eastern and close Monday October 17--10 pm Eastern
Due date December 31

* 1 yard of ribbon per person
* you may choose any pattern (ie: plaid, dots, stripes, etc); the main color should match the color group
* maximum width 1 inch
* 5 people per group

Newbies are welcome :)

I will pm you with a reminder if you forget to check in. After 48 hours with no response I will request angels for your spots. If you are going on vacation or will be out of town, please check in early. Please do not sign up for more than you can handle. If you need an angel, please ask for one as soon as possible.


Packaging: Place your ribbon in a small Ziploc or jewelry bag with your DISname, name and group letter. Do not address your items to a particular swapper. (That makes it harder for me to sort!) Your label should look like this:

MusicalDisneyDreams
Rachel Hammer
Group A

Take all of your baggies for a group and place them in QUART size bag and label. Please use the quart bag. Please mark all bags w/ above information.

Mailing: You may send to me, by any method you choose. I think padded envelopes will be fine for this swap. If you want your items shipped to you with DC, please include the $.70, and a filled out slip. I will not mail the items back with delivery confirmation unless you include the $.70. And I am not responsible to for postal errors. ** Please include a return address label -- either a USPS priority mail label that you have addressed, or the little ones you would put on envelope. (This cuts down on errors.)**

DO NOT include click-it/ship-it postage. I will not be able to use it since it is only good on the day it was printed, and from the location it was printed.


Check-in dates are:
October 19- verify group and PM info
November 20- check-in and last call for angels
December 31- due date

[MazdaUK]

My groups are good:thumbsup2 Little suggestion - how about making one big random ribbon group but doing it like the scrap paper groups - you send in 5 ribbons and get 5 back (but not your own)? I was just thinking about the poeple in the group of 3:) But I'm equally happy to leave as is:goodvibes

[DisneyIsTerrific]

My groups look good! Thanks for hostessing!!!!

If we put the groups together, there will only be six people because wdwm and I are in both. I'd prefer to leave it as is, but I appreciate the suggestion. :goodvibes

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

My groups are good...pm box is unloaded, but I have your info!! ;) You don't need mine, right...or do you want it anyway?

BTW - got the card today...thanks for thanking me!! And, you are welcome! Love ya sista!!!!

[MazdaUK]

My ribbon order arrived today and I was one reel short:headache: because they ran out of stock. I can make up the quantity with two shorter pieces, but I will label that as coming back to me so no-one has to work around it except me. Sorry:guilty:

[catinthehat35]

Just checked my groups and they look fabulous!

[MazdaUK]

Glad it got there OK :goodvibes That means my holiday swap should touch down soon as it was mailed the same day:)

[wdwmickey]

It takes 7-10 working days to me so I expect I'll get it next week :goodvibes

We won't even start being concerned about yours until at least 2 weeks from now ;) Hopefully the pony will swim fast!

[VickiV]

I went to the mailbox expecting I might get my package that day. Lo and behold, there was a key to the parcel box. I was so excited to get it after a hard day at work, but when I opened the door, the package wasn't for me at all :confused3 So disappointing!

I did receive it the next night though after an even harder day at work. I was almost too tired to open it. Anyway, thanks to everyone for all their efforts and thanks to our hostess as well!

BLIZ1982 has not been feeling well, so she doesn't have her ribbon yet. She'll get them the next time I see her. I'm sure she'll be happy with them though.

VickiV

[MazdaUK]

Got my package and I love everything :goodvibes Thanks for being a great hostess!

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

Woohoo!!! We are officially complete!!! Thanks for playing in my first swap :)
