Thank you so much, OL for your years of wonderful ornament exchange coordinating!! I can not do it justice, but with the help of 2 wonderful wenches (Tootsie and DD) I will attempt to make it funn!

Annual SoWal Ornament Exchange
1000 posts to participate

How: Email me your SoWal name, real name and address by November 30th. I will draw names and get your recipient's information to you. This information will remain anonymous.

alison1135@aol.com

What: Hand make or purchase an ornament which is personal to your recipient. Keep it simple...no one wants to stress about this!

Mail it to your receipient by December 15th. This is not a hard and fast rule, A few days late will not hurt.

This year we thought it would be funn to open your ornament as soon as you receive it in the mail and post a picture of it!! An on-going opening party! Who will be the first lucky SoWaller to post their ornament??

*If you feel unfamilliar with your receipent, I will start a thread about getting to know your SoWaller.

*DD and Tootsie will be adding more information to this thread!!!!

Just pray I don't draw your name. I am not artsy, craftsy, or anything in between. Maybe I will just buy the components of an ornament, some glue, and mail it to my recipient- a "do-it-yourself" ornament.:lol:

No..here's what you do. You buy all the stuff, mail it to Mermy, who will then create the ornament, then send it to Kitty, who will keep it until I see her in December and give it to me. Then, she and I will figure out it really came from you and not Mermy...well, you get the picture. :lol:

I still have the big silver heavy unicorn. But if I made an ornament out of it, it would pull a tree down.

Oh, also remember to take a pictures or pictures of the ornament before you send it. In the event that you've drawn a less than technical name you can post the pictures for them.

I've been guilty of plagiarizing Mermy's ornaments as well. :blush:
