Spring Me A Surprise

Spring Me A Surprise

I thought this would be a great way to share extra seeds with those who are looking for specific seeds before spring gets here.

This is a surprise swap so please don't post who you are sending seeds to. You do not need to send seeds to join, just post your top 5 wants. If possible try and find at least one other to send to.

RULES:

1. Post your top 5 seed wants. The ones you really would like to have before spring gets here.

2. Send me your GW name and your address in an email. I will send out a spreadsheet of addresses by email on February 28th of all requests by GW name with their addresses so you can send seeds. Try to mail out the seeds during the first week of March.

3. Have Fun!

    Even though this swap is mainly about filling want lists, it's cool to send surprises too. After all, ever see a seed you didn't like? Even if you don't have something on someone's wish list, it's a lot of fun to send other stuff. I did that in the Christmas Seed Swap, and didn't hear anything negative. I know that, when I see an envie in the mailbox, I don't really mind what the seeds are, I'm just happy someone thought of me and wanted to share!

    Everyone is giving me a hard time about only 5. so if you want to post 10 - 15 go ahead. I had a hard time decieding on 5 I thought narrow it down so you get something your reaally want but I had a hard time too.

    CHANGE TO SWAP::: So go ahead give 10-15 if you would like. It may make it easier than checking everyones page. hehe.

    Signup today TODAYS the LAST DAY for signups

    Don't forget to make sure I have your addy. And the last day to update your lists will be the 28th by 5:00PM . (As i will be sending them out that night.

    Aloha folks, I want to join! I have several of the seeds folks are looking for! :)

    It's still the 25th here in Hawaii. In fact, it's 10:12 PM Hawaii time so even if the time stamp on GW says the 26th I think I still joined in time because it isn't the 26th here for me YET!!

    I will start working on the list of wants and address and will be emailing it out soon. I will post the list tonight so everyone can start getting seeds together (like you haven't already right)

    Everyone make sure if you want to up your list to 15 you try and do it in the next day or so, so everyone has time to add your seeds to your envies.

    And above all else. HAVE FUN while your doing it.

    OK. We had a total of 29 people sign up for this swap. (My first time as host BTW so I hope I did everyone properly)

    I added some extra on Kamils list from his trade page as I know he is without a computer sporadically until his laptop is fixed.

    I have the document ready to send and will be sending within the next 1/2 hour. If you do not recieve it by 10PM Please email me and I will send it again.

    The email will have it listed like this:

    Name
    Address
    Top Requests

    Name
    Address
    Top Requests

    Etc...

    Hope this help everyone having it all together.

    Have fun! And Start Surprising!

    I just want to let each of you know I have enjoyed being your host for this swap and hope you enjoyed it as much as I have. I look forward to swapping with you all again in the future.

    Tammy :-)
