August 17th is Thrift Store Day believe it or not. So, for this holiday we will search for something that reminds us of August. (Indian Summer) You know, colors like orange, brown, yellow , leaves ,acorns, Indians, squirrels, in any form.(Just a suggestion) Yes, a challenge, but you are up to it. If it reminds you of something else then by all means do that and let swapper know why in a note. Send one item (more if you like) that is not broken, smells, torn or dirty. Price of item up to you as the store is a Thrifty place. Add a note with your name, name of swap and the reason you are sending what you are sending referencing August, Autumn to your swapper. One swapper - Have purged group and will check ratings of participants if under a 5 This is senders choice of course. Sending one item only is okay and is rated a 5, anymore than that up to you. Enjoy!

your "challenge" ideas remind me of October, not August -- I think of hot sun, blue water, thunderstorms, maybe concerts on the village green, county fairs, tomatoes, corn on the cob, ice cream cones

Sorry but in August you will find those autumn things already in Thriftstores. I've already purchased mine. Besides at my age I am always thinking ahead.

To me October is what Ladydy has in description plus Halloween, apples, apple cider, apple pie, etc.

Sorry about the month but it is my swap and I do like to think about fall coming in October in August.

Sorry ladydy, I meant August. I still think about Halloween for August too since everyone is thinking of it and getting ready for the Holiday. Summer is ending and Fall is just around the corner. I guess it could go either way and your right. It is your swap so set it up how you want.
