Can you believe this will be our 3rd annual exchange?

Ornaments should be mainly handmade but if you see something at a store that reminds you of that person you can pick that up too. We will wait and open our packages together one night in December, an ornament s/c/d/ party.;-) Same rules apply as past years with the exception of the post count. If you want to play...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) 1000* posts+ to participate. I realize this is a little more strict than in years past but I can only handle so much while working too. Email me and I may make an exception. :)

Questions? do a search first or ask here. If it isn't answered here then find me on facebook. :))



You have this week to sign up and email me! Deadline Friday morning. November 13. I'll draw names and have everyone their names by the end of the weekend. and the mail by date will be Monday, Dec. 7 with the party being the week of Dec. 14th. ( exact date to be deturmined) Heads up ...that only gives you about 3 weeks to complete the ornament.

Let the ideas flow and the funn begin!!

I'm finished but I am not satisfied. need more glitter. lots more.
(SoWal ornament making has become such a great way to just ignore all other pressing holiday responsibilities and just make stuff for days on end. no kidding. its wonderful.).

I'm almost done, luckily it's not going that far so it might make it in the mail tomorrow.

I'm behind on mine and it's all destinscuba's fault. I claim 50% creativity credit in his sowaller's ornament. :biggrin: Unless they don't like it, then I had nothing to do with it.

P.S. 20% of my sowaller's ornament(s) is/are flammable. :ninja:

I am so way behind. :eek: It may have to be a personal delivery or I can bribe the mail guy to just take it directly from my house to recipient. I've made it a thousand times in my mind. Better get out the glue gun or I'm thinking a trip to Fired Up may save me.
