Calling all Ashura, Bodhi Day, Boxing Day, Chanukah, Christmas, Kwanzaa celebrators!

Hey, have you looked at the calendar? It’s August already. You know what that means: the trees will be going up in the stores any day now! So, let’s beat them to it. Shelley Graham Turner of Tori Sophia, and I have come up with a novel way to start off the busy holiday season with a
Holiday Bling Blog Hop.

We were discussing the idea of exchanging one of our handmade ornaments with each other and we thought "Wouldn’t it be fun to open it up to anyone who wants to join in the fun?!”
We decided the best way to do this would be to match up partners, and each pair can decide what it is that they would like to exchange: handmade ornaments, holiday jewelry, etc.

Sign-ups will run now through August 16th, with partners being matched up by August 25th.
Of course, there will be a Blog Hop involved to showoff what you sent and/or received - it will take place on October 6th.

So, if you want to join the party, please leave a comment below and then e-mail MarShellSwaps@gmail.com and include your name, address and whether or not you’d be willing to ship internationally.

Watch your email on August 25th to see who your partner is, or just come on back to either Shelley's or this blog for the list.

  3. I will cheer everyone on from the sidelines! I am hosting the "My Bead Table" Blog Hop October 13th, and I am afraid of overextending myself. Sounds like a lot of fun!
