Over the summer, I participated in the August Package Pals hosted by C.R.A.F.T. and Stars and Sunshine. You may remember the Ollieblocks I made as a result of that event. Getting the package in the mail was so much fun, I thought I might extend the joy and, last night, I had the bright idea of a Christmas Ornament Exchange. I LOVE Christmas time! All the wonderful smells, the snow, the lights, the warm fuzzy feelings, and (I really should have mentioned it first) the BAKING!!!!! Anyway, back to the point. So, basically, all you do to participate is fill out the form below before October 30, 2013. Then I will split everyone into groups of 4 - 5 people and, by November 4, 2013 I will email you with contact emails/websites of the other people in your group. At that point, exchange some greetings, get to know each other, then send a lovely Christmas ornament to everyone in your group. Then, on December 10, 2013 I will host a link party so everyone can share the sweet crafty goodness they got.
You can do whatever you like for this ornament, you can make it personal or general, whatever you wish. Heck, if you really feel like going outside of the box, do it! There is no ceiling on creativity here! Mostly, just have fun, get to know fellow crafty people and show off your amazing talents. To get the artsy juices flowing, I posted some great ideas below.

 From Martha Stewart, she really has a great team of crafters.  Love these from Country Living  Ok, so it's not an ornament, but still, how clever! Also from Country Living. |  For those of you over-the-top people, from Lady Fiddler  From House Revivals, its book pages people!  Found these on The 36th Avenue, precious!  Great tutorial from Compulsive Craftiness  From Michele Made Me, these were created using frozen juice containers! |
A blog is not necessary to participate, however, you will need either a shop or social media profile (Facebook, Google+, Twitter, etc) and an email address. I will try to match up people from the same country, but that may not work out. So, please let me know on the form if you don't want to send your ornaments outside of your country. Please let your friends know about the fun and share this event! Lets make this a rockin party!
