I have matched everyone and sent out names and addresses via email or pm. If you did not receive my message with your match, please let me know.
Please try to mail your ornament by Thursday, December 14. There are no specific rules---just think simple and elegant. It would be fun to include a photo of yourself or your family.
I plan to host a carnival of ornaments party on the feast of the Epiphany, if anyone is interested in doing that. So, remember to take a photo of your new ornament when it arrives.
If you do not receive your package by Dec 23, please let me know and I will contact your match to check when it was mailed.
Thanks so much for responding so generously to my invitation---we have 30 ladies participating! I'm looking forward to seeing what arrives...

Oooh, yes! I'm glad you brought this up, Margaret. I was contemplating packing stuff away today as we may rig sails this weekend (they are all on the foredeck right now). I need to get the perfect photo first

Sorry...I've been meaning to post something on this all week.  Dh and I are going to Germany this weekend---our last chance before his parents leave. I have mixed feelings, but my mil is insisting, hinting that I mustn't neglect her son. How can I refuse? I wasn't thinking about it being the Epiphany when we made our plans.
But, if you send me your links this weekend, I will host the ornaments party on Monday, just a little late. I would love to see what arrived in everyone's mailbox. You can send your link by pm or email.
If you did not receive an ornament yet, please let me know. I will be happy to contact your match to find out if and when it was sent.
Hope everyone is enjoying a happy Thursday!

I've only received a handful of posts for the ornament exchange party, so I thought I'd remind you that it's not too late to send me a link to your post or a photo and description. Not only is it fun to share with everyone, it's also a great way to say thank you.
I'll wait until tomorrow to post it so you can send me your entry through tonight.
