Was looking at another small tree yesterday for my sewing table, although I do believe the apple may be to large for that but still wanting that tiny tree. The apple will be front and center on the large tree. Thanks again Mary.

the card which I forgot the pic of is green with a plate with chocolates on it making a smiley face and it says The best things in life are chocolate.
What size wire did you use? Thanks for any help.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Make sure that you send a PM to both the sender and me when you receive an ornament! It seems many ornaments are showing up at the PO as being delivered but people aren't hearing anything and they are getting nervous....this is part of the rules to let everyone know when you receive!!

Lynnie,
Come on down! And as far as same ornaments next year, fine by me! You will probably get different people to send to anyway. If it happens to be the same, I am sure they will be like me, and be happy to receive them! One of the 3 in the sets I made this year are mostly the same pattern as 1 I made last year, but I used different fabrics and embellishments.
Those paintbrush Santa's are way cute. I am astonished at just how creative some people are!!

For the ornament hangers. It was size 20 I think. I took the beads I was going to use and checked to see if the beads would go on the wire.

mary, thanks for the wire info. I really want to make a few for next year. what a creative idea.
grann I love the emb. ornaments for the same reason, and they come out very pretty. last year I got hand crocheted snowflakes, they are so pretty. I wouldn't mind the same again. that's why I asked if anyone would mind. and you're prob right, i'll get someone else.

I used to do the hand crocheted snowflakes, my DD has dozens of them on her tree, and so do I, but my hands say no to that, so I let the machine do them now.
