🎄✨ Christmas/Holiday Ornament Swap 2025! ✨🎄

It’s that time of year again—the sparkle, the twinkle, the handmade magic! Let’s swap a little holiday cheer with this year’s ornament exchange. Here’s how it works:

1️⃣ Sign-ups close October 20, 2025
📬 Ornaments need to be mailed by November 8, 2025—so they arrive in plenty of time to hang on the tree and be enjoyed all season long.

2️⃣ Handmade, please!
Quilted, crocheted, carved, painted, glittered—whatever your crafty heart desires, as long as it’s handmade.

3️⃣ Each person may send up to two ornaments.

4️⃣ Direct Mailing
To keep things simple, you’ll mail directly to your partner(s). You’ll get their info by October 22.

5️⃣ International Fun
This swap is worldwide! 🌍 If mailing internationally isn’t for you, just let me know in a PM.

6️⃣ To join, PM me once your ornaments are ready with:

• Screen name
  
• Real name
  
• Address
  
• Email address
  
• Number of ornaments you’re swapping (1 or 2)
  

7️⃣ Include a Note
Don’t forget to tuck in a little card so your partner knows who their ornament came from.

8️⃣ Check the Swaps Guidelines

9️⃣ Most important… HAVE FUN!
🎁 Let your creativity flow, get festive, and enjoy spreading joy one ornament at a time.

✨ Questions? PM me anytime. Let’s make this holiday swap merry & bright! ✨

🎄✨ Ornament Story Contest! ✨🎄

Let’s spread some holiday cheer early! I want to see your most favorite ornament—the one that makes your heart smile every time you hang it on the tree. 💖

📸 Post a picture of your special ornament and share its story. Was it handmade by grandma? Found on a magical trip? The one your kids fight over every year? Tell us why it’s your favorite!

🎁 On October 20, 2025, I’ll do a random name draw from everyone who posts their ornament + story. One lucky person will get a surprise gift from me!

So dust off those ornament boxes, snap a photo, and let the stories (and sparkles) begin! ✨🎄

Count me in please. And thank you for doing this.

sent info but not sure if rec'd...stupid computer not behaving again

May I also sign up and post a picture of my favorite ornament? This is a glass ornament of a camel and wise man. It was a thrift store find and always gets a place of prominence on the tree. It reminds me of the real reason of christmas. To seek the christ child into our hearts.

I'm working on my 2nd ornament now. Both knitted. I hope that's ok.

Perfect m-fay. Tomorrow the swap closes and the fun begins.

I hope I'm in. I didn't get a conformation message for this one. Only the SS.

RedGarnet... you are the winner! A gift going out to you this weekend.

Names are out. Going to make my ornaments this weekend. I have them planned.

Yippee! I love it! Thanks so much for the contest hav4boys! I did get my name for the swap. I will get my ornament and goodies all wrapped and ready to send.
