2007 Holiday Ornament Exchange trade list

[Curt Fuller]

Well, this is it, the official trade list for the 2007 Holiday Ornament Exchange. The names were drawn by two completely unbiased but very enthusiastic young ladies, my granddaughters, Audrey and Merrin. Because we ended up with an uneven number I threw my name in twice. The results were then verified by the unscrupulous law firm of Dewey, Cheetem, and Howe and any complaints will go to Helen Waite, who runs their PR department. Other than that it's all pretty self explanatory. Your trade partner is the person on the same line as you, either left or right of your name. Send them a PM (private message) or an email to exchange addresses and get those ornaments in the mail in time to be displayed for the Holiday Season. Also feel free, in fact feel obligated to post a picture of your exchange ornament for all the rest of us to see.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

[Rich Stewart]

Well, here is mine to Bonnie. After seeing these others, mine kind of looks like a booger. I really had a hard time making one. I never thought it would be that much problems. I have a new-found respect for everyone who turns those tiny, dainty little finials. I broke seven before I finally got this one to stay together.

[Bonnie Campbell]

It looks good Rich! You're getting a bell because I just kept screwing up the birdhouses
