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!!!!

Oh good! 😀

It is hard to tell scale (I just have a Christmas Shrub) and mine is about 6"x6".

And I am trying to make it green - shooting for 100% recycled content (except for the thread holding it together).

Maybe for Christmas, Santa will leave me some help for posting pics on sowal. Nah...not gonna happen.

Until that liar elf posts some pics, I will tell you that it was too big to hang on the tree, it is hanging in the window. A piece of art. :lol:

The Kitty Voodoo doll on the left is Miss Kitty with her wash board and gamblin' cash (she's since switched to quarters BTW).

The ornament on the right is the Rover stuck in the sand. If you look really closely you can see scooterbug in the passenger seat and me in the drivers seat telling Tiller Jeff I don't need any help.

It's from a prior issue, they're working off their time in 2 day cycles. The jail folk are very confused letting someone go who still has time to serve.
