2012 :: Handmade Ornament Exchange
Tuesday, September 25, 2012 at 10:54AM Ribbon, sparkles, glue guns – oh my!
The 5th Annual Handmade Holiday Ornament Exchange is underway.
This is a great way to get your craft on; take part in the holiday spirit and make a donation towards the Make a Wish Foundation.
I always wind up with a little sparkle and it’s not because I have glitter in my hair!
The Exchange is now open for registration so don’t get snowed in!
The first 20 people to register will get a chance to win my Winter Wishes Doormat from Magnet Works!
Won’t this look great in your entryway this holiday season!!!
Now let’s get crafty!

- If you do not send your ornaments out to your team members, you will be put on the naughty list and will not be able to participate next year and you won’t get presents from Santa :-). Just like Santa I keep detailed records.
- Before you mail your ornaments, please take a moment to scan or snap a photo and post it to the Blu Penny :: Handmade Holiday Ornament Exchange Flickr Group!
- Pack your ornaments securely before mailing them. Be sure to include the mailing address inside and outside the box.

*The Exchange will no longer be available after 250 participants sign up, or after midnight on Friday, November 25th, whichever comes first.
*Please note that this is for fun only. I am not responsible for non-shippers, but hopefully this will be a non-issue.
