I’ll make and email the matches next weekend.

Yay! I’ve already got 2 ornament candidates. I’m trying not to look at any more ornaments - I may accumulate enough for several years of exchanges.

GT

Mine is wrapped and ready to be packed for its trip. Squee!

Count me in.

Cool! I’ve added you to the list but I’ll need you to email or PM me with the usual info (address, international shipping pref, etc.).

I always go to a craft fair run by the local parks department… but they’re only having one this holiday season and that’s next weekend and I’ll be out of town :mad:. I found another one, a Sugarloaf fair, the following weekend and I suppose I’ll have to make time to go to that one. Me loves my handmade ornaments.

Plus that might be a good place to get something for the Secret Santa exchange :slight_smile:

I did send an e-mail.

I’ll retry.

One last bump before the weekend - no new takers since the other day.

Sunday night update: I just send out emails to everyone. If you don’t get the email from me, ping me here (on list or via PM) or drop me an email.

Ornament shipped.

I think I paid more to ship the packaging than I did to ship the ornament. But it wasn’t a large sum either way.

Cool - looks like Eureka got the first-shipped award for the first round.

A notice / reminder: if there are any Dopers who are interested in participating, but who have not signed up, I’ll do a second round of matches in a couple of days. So feel free to keep on signing up!!

Wow. Um, I am not going to be sending mine until at least Monday or Tuesday. What? I’m on vacation!

Mine went out this morning with the big wave of Xmas packages. Whew.

I have to find a box to ship mine in so it may take another day or two. Hmmm, where to find ornament sized boxes…

I just got a contact lens shipment in a box that was perfect!

Since my ornament was flat–and not fragile–it went in one of those bubble mailing envelopes. I had several other things which I wanted to mail, so I had the ornament all packed up just waiting for an address, when I checked my e-mail, wrote down the address, and headed off to the post office with my arms full.

Sent! It’s in a bubble-envelope, which will be more than sufficient to protect it. It should take 2-3 days to arrive. :slight_smile:

The local place that has cool ornaments won’t be open until Thursday. Patience, grasshopper . . .

I signed Z_C, to clear up a potential mystery. I didn’t think to write Zabali_Clawbane out.
