We've talked about this and I don't think anyone is organizing it so ....I'm going to get us started! I think the ornaments should be mainly handmade but if you saw something at a store that reminded you of that person you could pick that up too. We could all wait and open our packages together one night in December, an ornament postathon if you will. Or some other funn plan...I'm open to any and all suggestions. Participation is not an option*!!!!! Grinches, bah humbuggers, you know who you are;-) ....this will put you in the C'mas spirit. :biggrin: I have created a new email just for this purpose. Please email OLbunnyfunn@aol.com with your sowal name and your real name and address.* I will draw names and send you your person!

*Lurkers need not apply! (not to be rude--we wouldn't know anything about you) 500 posts+ or you are new and chatty.( Beach Jacket comes to mind plus we already kind of know her):biggrin:

Thanks for the thought, but I don't know if they will allow me to hang my ornament on my big @ss community tree located in Destin Commons. Ordinarily, I would welcome the opportunity to make some ornaments, but I am backlogged on making my Christmas gifts and trying to put together a calendar with pictures from the area, plus work and volunteer work.

Do the ornaments really have to be crafted by our own hands, or can they be hand-crafted by someone else? :blush:

The rules have been bent ever so slightly for a few but we would like it to be made by you!

Of course Dr. SKunky should be included, but only if he buys an ornament. I am scared of what materials he would use to make a homemade ornament.:eek: If anyone gets a coke bottle ornament....well....

Alright now, if Tootsie, jdarg, DD and I can browbeat our beloved husbands into ornament swapping, where the heck is FutureBeachBum? C'mon GTTBM, get that man of yours with the program! He's not a lurker! (If I get his name I'll send him a beer with a ribbon and an ornament hook. ;-) )
