[ATTACH=CONFIG]602929[/ATTACH]I knew I was going to do this swap, so I started doing these in June . They are "reddy" now.

Personally I would wait. Especially if you think your partner would be able to guess that you are her artist.

Be sure to take pictures in case your partner does not post. That has happened in past years.

Mine’s pretty specific to someone’s wishes so I’m not sure I should post a picture when I’m done. I’m doing a second more simple one I could present tho. What do you guys think? Should I wait for the person to be able to open it first before I post a picture?

I love all the generosity of this swap and the people who make such great ornaments; however, no one should feel any pressure to make more than one for their partner. If people want to do more that is ok; however, no one should have that expectation. There are several people who have been in this swap for years and are fully aware of the expectation. So Please do not feel pressured to do more. Ornaments are addicting and sometimes once you get started you just can't stop.

Wow, I take the weekend off and you guys have been very busy ladies. I even received my first confirmation number today so some lucky swapper will be receiving their ornaments soon. Guess what....you will have to wait till December 2nd to open it. Time for the temptation to begin.

I have loved all the pictures so far.
BettyJ - What great ornaments and those bags are just beautiful.
Judith1005 - I am not usually an angel fan but your little angel is just adorable.
Roseirish - I love the Moose.
Terriamn - What a great collection.
M-fay - Love the hearts

In fact I love them all. I am looking forward to hubby being out of town this weekend and getting some ornament making done myself. Isn't if funny how we always get more done when the men are away.
