    I would like to do a 'All Year Round' robin. Am open to suggustions. Am thinking each month having a 'Garden Decorating' theme.

    I also want everyone who wants to join know something small each month is good and it can be homemade. I know some of us can't paid alot for postage.

    And if anyone would like to add seeds and /or plants to there person that month that is ok too.

    April - flags
    May - wind chimes
    June - pots
    July - windmills
    August - birdfeeders
    Sept - garden statute
    Oct - birdhouse or toad house
    Nov - garden signs
    Dec - just a thought, how about your favorites Holiday recipe. We can just email it to everyone and not send a box for Dec.
    Jan - how to ' garden decorating' book
    Feb - sun catchers
    March - open

    ......this is not a set order. I would like suggustion. As I live in Calif. it gets to about the 30's at night on are coldest time of the year. The wind chill can be colder.

    We will need to know a little about you. If you can email me your answers to these question with your GW name, name and mailing address.

    What is your favorite color or colors ?

    What is your favorite animal or animals ?

    Tell us a little about your gardens ? Is there a theme ?

    Is there a want list of seeds ?

    Is there a want list of plants ?

    Is there anything else you would like for us to know about you ?

    What size garden glove do you wear ?

    RULES:
    #1) if you have a problem with me or anyone else in this RR. Email me directly, do not post on GW. Sorry I had to say that.
    #2) if you have trouble sending, just email me and we will work it out.
    #3) if you can not send for a month or more but want to come back later or if you need to drop out. Please give me at least 2 weeks notice before mailing deadline. Thank you.

    This round robin is very tempting but I know committing to a whole year will end up being a mistake for me.

    Here they are:
    -candles / votives
    -candle / votive holders
    -vases
    -wall art
    -tablecloths
    -bells
    -pin wheels
    -is there anything else ?

    I would like to take a vote on what we will send for April.

    Can't wait to get started, mkruby7

    I would love to join too!

  • 20 years ago

    I love candles, votives, etc!
    What about a few round robins? A seed? Or bulb/seed? Or an "everything" garden robin, seeds/bulbs/tools, pots, gloves, plantmarkers, whatever one doesn't need or has too much of (adds to the box and passes it on). Just an idea.
    Or a craft round robin, and if your not a crafty person, buy a few crafty items predone to add in the box. Last idea for the night, a plant (or cutting) round robin.

    Hi Deb, we are glad to have you. I am trying to stay with garden decorating. But I do like the tool and plantmakers. We will work them in.

    I think we are going to add seeds, cuttings, bulbs, seedlings and plants on every month. I will put this up for a vote. The vote is to add every month or leave it optionable for the sender to add.

    Also I like to add to RULE #6. That deadline is for April mailing. We will take new members every month. And the sign up deadline will be the 5th on each giving month.

    Ok, we now have 6 members. YEAH !!!!!!!!!!
