Christmas in July Swap!

We are all familiar with the Christmas in July sales and events....so I thought it would be fun to have a

Christmas in July Swap!

  

I'm getting a bit of a late start on this swap, so sign-ups will be for two weeks only, ending June 15th and swap packages are due to be mailed out by July 15th.  Since I know how busy this time of year is, the swap will be for 2  Christmas items.  One must be a doll of some sort, Santa, angel, reindeer, etc and the other can be a lesser item.  I am saying this to avoid someone just getting two ornies.  Please give something you would like to receive.  Most of your swappers already know the drill - lol.    I have posted some pictures to give you a few ideas of what you could include:

Santa doll

angel

Christmas garland

candy canes

Christmas signs

Christmas ornies

Now for those chickie pics I've been promising!  They are all settled into their new home and enjoying the country life!

CLUCK CLUCK!  Is that CHICKEN salad sandwiches I see?   How COULD you!?!?

Thursday I had some friends over for lunch, and I made these yummy chicken salad sandwiches.  I'll be posting the recipe on our food blog, The Crow's Crusty Loaf, later today.  You can find the link to that blog on the upper left sidebar.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
