New Swap:
We are going to have a "Winter Ornament Swap" again this year!
This is the swap button that Natalie made us last year I love it so we are going to use it again this year and may have more by next week and/or one after that.
Sign ups are now and will run until November 15th when I will email you your swap pal information. This Swap will end Dec. 29th
Rules: Make, Create or Purchase a special ornament for your swap pal dog or dogs family and include a favorite special treat for that dog(and their doggie brothers and sisters if you get a multi dog family.)
Use your imagination and have fun. Please mail your package to your pal by Dec. 20th.
I am not putting a price on this simple swap because it is the season and I know that each of you will exhibit much kindness to each other in being creative in your swap and I don't want to inhibit your ideas with a price.
