Comment: Thank you Diana! Lovely ATC, and I felt like "royalty" unveiling all the little goodies you sent with it! ;) I don't know how it all survived, cuz the package itself, hadn't been treated like royalty along the way! :( (The postal service just didn't know what they had in their hands! LOL) Did you make the crown on the ATC? I really like it, but it's got me mind-boggled though! Thank you so much....HUGS!!!

HI there

I have every swap in my calendar on my computer with due dates & reminders ~ Since I work from Home & am on the computer frequently this works for me ~ I also print off each swap the week before it has to be sent & have a corresponding basket to collect items for each set up in my gift cupboard in my craft room...I sign up for things that interest me & once I have an idea I start working on it right away (or planning for my next shopping trip) every thing goes in it's appropriate swap basket ~ I also have in my gift cupboard items I have purchased, pens, glue sticks, sticker, tea, coffee etc...the extras ~ I love to shop so when I see something interesting & unusual I purchase it & place in the cupboard ~ I eventually have someone that it suits perfectly ~ I love to gift people so I guess this makes it easy for me ~ hope that answers your question ~ hugs Diana aka farmer di
