These are gifts for our supper club. The scarves are for all the ladies. We give each other little presents. The table runner is for the dirty Santa exchange. We do one female and one male gift. The male gift we are giving is this cool back stratcher that was handcrafted by a member of the local craftmen's guild out of oak and a cast off deer antler. It's at my sister's house because I got one for my husband for his stocking and I don't want him to see it until the gifts are opened tomorrow night. That'll give him a week to pout that he didn't get one. The scarves were made from fleece that I cut and fringed the bottoms then monogrammed and affixed Swarovski crystals around the monogram. I found after the fringe was cut if I pulled on the fringe while running my fingernail down it they curled. It was purely by accident when I pulled on one. The table runner has a glittery button on each end tied with gold thread. Sorry the pictures aren't the best. It's late and I used my cell phone instead of going to fetch the camera. I enjoy seeing all the presents everyone has made. I hope everyone on the board has a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah or whatever seasonal holiday you celebrate.

Love the scarves, the fringe is really neat! Did you glue the crystals, and if so, what kind of glue? I never would have thought of animal print with Christmas, but it turned out very sharp. The buttons are a great extra touch.
