Matchboxes
Thank you so much to those who sent me boxes! The package got here, a little banged up, but not too badly. Love them! Sadly, some of the tags fell off so I dont know who all sent me one, so if you would pm me and let me know what your box looked like, I can re-tag them all. They will have a place of honor, for sure and certain!

Oh no. I misread the due date, I thought they had to be in the mail by the 20th.. not in Your possession by the 20th.
I was gonna get mine in the mail today. .. i have them all.. candy too.. I'm sorry.. i dunno what to do now... This was the soonest I could get to it due to my work schedule. . |
Just mail yours today or tomorrow, that's totally fine

Oh YAY!! Thank You so much!

Apologies...
I just got home and my package of Halloween cards was returned to me for insufficient postage. Which is crazy because the self service machine weighed and created the label for me! So, now I should send these out individually, I think. Would those of you participating in the Halloween card swap mind sending me your addresses?
Thanks! Cara |
Hi, everyone,
Just an update: I am awaiting ahk's package which he mailed today. After receiving ahk's package, I will then mail everyone whose cards I received packages. You will receive back your cards for Cara and deb0670 and you can contact them directly to facilitate an individual exchange if you wish. These are super fun packages! You will love them! Thanks, Jennifer Quote:

I am very sorry, but things have come up and i might not be able to get the package mailed to nycfem on time. If y'all want, I can give you my personal address and I can still send them to y'all individually. I would still like to send them, they are all ready.. just.. not financially able to send them in bulk.
i truly apologize for any and all inconvenience. :-( |
Small update. Cara was able to send hers out as a package to me today, so she will not be doing individual.
|
Cara's awesome package arrived. Will be mailing the packages out on Monday :)
|
I have everyone's cards ready to send out to them individually if y'all still want them. I already mailed out Jenny ' s and ahk's
If y'all care to exchange with me, I'll be happy to give you my address in a private message. |
Hi, everyone,
Just an update: ahk, I thought your package of cards would come by Saturday so I had already made up your package of other people's cards- Thus I sent it to you today, along with your individual cards which you will have to send out yourself because I didn't get them until late today. I mailed out all packages so they should arrive on Thursday, latest Friday (actual Halloween!). Everyone did a wonderful job! You will love everything. Why is candy so fun? :) xoxo Jennifer |
Did we need to include any money? I am sending it to Tommi. Addresses are the same? I have no clue :| I will send money separate if needed.
November 1 is Saturday [quote=Tommi;940274] Quote:

I got my Halloween package today-thank you, nycfem, for wrangling! And thank you to everyone who participated. I was really impressed at the variety and creativity of each card. I have them all displayed on my window sill and they will bring a smile to my face for days to come. Thank you!
:) :stillheart: :) Quote:

Spook-tacular!
Received my packet of cards and treats in the mail yesterday! Thank you to everyone who participated. As always the effort and creativity that went into each one is impressive! The kiddo especially appreciated the Pumpkin "Peeps!"
On yet another Thank-full note, I sent out my Thanksgiving card and recipe today and used Tommi's address figuring it would *somehow* get to Ts-kaijira. Hope everyone has a happy and safe trick-or-treat. Katniss~~ p.s. Due to time/travel/life issues I will not be in a position to send or receive any cards that did not originally go out with the packets sent by NYCFemme. Thanks for your understanding. |
My Halloween goodies arrived yesterday. Thank you everyone!

Penpals and crafty sorts!
If you have an extra moment this holiday season, please send THIS girl a Christmas card. It would mean a lot to her and her family. |

Thanks for all the cards, everyone! I even had some surprise late arrivals. Extra fun. :)

Hi everyone. I wanted to apologize for the last couple of activities I did not do my part in. The biggest problem I have been running into is the due dates. We get paid on the 15th of every month, so I usually have to wait til then to buy whatever material is needed for the projects, then send them off. When the due dates for things are before then, I try my best to make due, however, it is almost impossible.
If there was a way for the due dates to be after the 15th of the month, I will be more than happy to participate in any and possibly all activities. I love them! Anyways, again, I apologize for the past and looking forward to the future. |
This is a helpful post. Yes, we can do our best to accommodate this. Just remind us right away if anyone forgets.

New rule for penpal thread that applies to all group projects:
I think we've experienced a slow down on this thread because folks are reluctant to sign up for projects when we are having some people repeatedly not come through with what they signed up for. For 2015, the rule is if one of us is more than a week late or drops out of a project for whatever reason, that person is welcome to continue posting but is not allowed to sign up for a project again until 2016. No exceptions. This rule must be posted at the bottom of all new projects that are being wrangled so that members can thoughtfully consider whether we wish to commit to a new project. This is not a punishment but is a way to try and make the group projects something members can trust that we are getting what we signed up for. This is a new beginning, so we are all starting at the same place :). |

I wouldn't mind each project taking a bit more time if there'd be less drop outs and more mindfulness. But I'd have to say the MOST frustrating thing, as a person who's crafted in all aspects....wrangler, participant, early, late, etc....are those who are late. If memory serves me, there is still an outstanding project out there for one of our members. Tardiness affects all of us, especially those like Sis, who sometimes have strict deadlines to adhere to. It's also disrespectful. For 2015, for myself and all participants, I'd like to not have any of that. Going forward, whatever the deadline is, that is the last date that your project can be postmarked in order to participate in that project. Finis. |
Well, I'm going to call a spade a spade here. I, and most people who participate in this thread know it is me who didn't complete the puzzle project.
I will happily still complete it, and nycfem will get it. I will not participate in 2015 until that is done, and only if I know I can fully participate in a timely manner. I apologize to all of you, especially nycfem. Sincerely, nan |
If anyone is interested, Iam doing this this year. It is free.
