welcome to the official linky party for the Handmade Gift Exchange! i hope everyone had fun participating, because i sure had fun hosting :) i hope you took the time to get to know your crafty partner and created a friend as well as a gift.
ok, so i'm like totally excited to see what y'all made! if you participated in the exchange, please show off! this is my fave part and it makes sending out those bajillion emails all worth it ;o) and please feel free to show off the gift you made as well as the gift you received. {this party will be open until 12/31/10, so if your gift has not arrived yet, don't worry, you have plenty of time to join in}
several readers mentioned they forgot to take pics of what they made and are really hoping their partner will take pics for them. so please take a second and take pics of the gift you received and post them.
i also created a Handmade Gift Exchange Flickr group so you can share your pics there as well. i am trying to figure out how to add a Flickr badge to my sidebar to make it easier to find the group.
This is for Handmade Gift Exchange participants ONLY!
*if you do not have a blog, you can upload your pics to the Flickr group {no blog needed for Flickr} and/or email them to me and i will link them up in the linky party.*
I guess I am the first one to post pics, The first is the hat and puppy I sent to sweet little 2 year old, the the second pic is the beautiful plastic canvas basket I received. This was so fun, thanks for doing this!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am the second... that's what happens when you live at greenwich mean time. This is the bag I sent to my gift partner.
ReplyDeletethank you so much for hosting the party Linda! I had so much fun!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for hosting! It's fun to see what everyone made & I'm happy to have made a new bloggy friend.
ReplyDeleteOh poop...I read the directions completely wrong!!! I just thought you were supposed to link up a gift you made for christmas. Oh forgive me! Go ahead and delete my last two link ups. Sorry! :/
ReplyDeleteWow! SOme girls went all out!! There are some great gifts on here! Thanks for arranging this exchange Linda!
ReplyDeleteNecklaces for Irene was actually just 1 necklace but a double strand. I forgot to take a picture of the matching earrings and a felt flower pin.
ReplyDeleteSo many great things were exchanged and posted! I definitely want to participate again :)
Mine should say "Headband from Jessica" .... sorry about that!
ReplyDeleteI was over-scheduled this Christmas and therefore didn't participate, but GREAT job to all those that did! It's been really fun checking out all the photos and associated blogs!
ReplyDeleteI just now got around to posting a blog about my exchange! I'll add to the flickr group next. Thanks for a GREAT exchange!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
