2019 Christmas Ornament Exchange

[Flasher]

Hello, Cherry pallies!  Would you like to participate in a Christmas Ornament exchange this holiday season?  I know it seems early, but we're actually only 77 days away from Christmas!  With sign-ups, shopping, and shipping now seems like a good time to start!

Here are the details:

1.  Sign-ups are now open and will close on October 31, 2019 at midnight!  Please sign up on this thread, and then send me a PM with your name and mailing address.

2.  On November 1, 2019 you will receive a PM from me indicating who you are buying for.

3.  If you choose to sign up and play, please be sure to answer the questions at the end of this post.  This way you will get to know the likes and dislikes of your Chosen Cherry!

4.  As for cost, I'm going to say there is no maximum and no minimum.  There are ornaments in all price ranges.  Just be sure that the ornament is something your gal will truly enjoy.  In years past, some Cherries have sent more than one ornament to their assigned gal.  However you want to handle it is up to you and your budget!

5.  ALL ORNAMENTS SHOULD BE RECEIVED BY DECEMBER 6, 2019!  This will give us Cherries ample time to display and enjoy our ornaments. 

6.  If for some reason you sign up and then decide that you can't play for whatever reason, please PM me as soon as possible so that I can make alternate plans.   Also, if life gets in the way and your package is late to go out or will be delayed for any reason at all, be sure to PM me as soon as possible.  We all understand that things happen, but we also want to be sure everyone is kept in the loop and no one is left hanging.   Communication is key!

7.  This Christmas Ornament Exchange is not sponsored or endorsed by ACOT in any way.

8.  Have fun!

Any questions?  Just let me know!

Of course, I'm in!

1.  I decorate with all colors!  My tree contains every color you can think of, while the rest of the house tends to be the traditional red and green.

2.  I have two main trees -- the large tree has no theme and is an "anything" goes tree!  All colors, creatures (except for the one mentioned in #5), textures, etc. are welcome.  My second tree is a pink tree -- as long as the ornament is pink, I'm happy!

3.  My decorating style is very traditional, with a touch of retro and vintage!  (I just love tracking down decorations from the 60's and 70's!)

4.  No collections on either of my trees!

5.  OK, here goes . . . I HATE snowmen.  Hate them.  Really.  Hate.  Snowmen.  It really is a completely irrational hatred, but it's still there.  Please, in the name of everything that is holy, do not send me a snowman.  Did I mention I hate them?

I'm in!

1. I don't stick to just one color. My tree has everything.

2.  No theme. Just lights, and whatever ornaments I want to put on.

3.  I guess you'd call it hodge podge

4.  I collect doggie ornaments. Shocker right? I also like to collect kitty ornaments, anything TEXAS related and I love my flip flops because I can wear them year round.

5.  Not into religion, so no crosses. And some of those woodland creatures can come across as weird looking. You know what I"m talking about. Like a squirrel with a bushy tail and its eyes are red and beady looking like its gonna attack you in the middle of the night. Yeah..not for me. But if its CUTE, I'll like it.

6.  I don't have a tree topper, so I use a big bow or holiday floral sprays in place of it. Been doing that for like 4 years. DH seems to like it. Alot.

[Monroe1218]

I'm in!!

1.  I don't really stick to one color - my tree has all colors - but not a lot of pink or purple.
2. No real theme.  We buy an ornament from wherever we go on vacation, big milestones, etc.  
3.  I'm going to say my style is traditional vintage.... if that makes sense?  
4.  No real collections on my tree other than ornaments from where we have been
5.  I'm not a huge fan of pink or purple - and tend to lean more towards gold than silver - but silver is perfectly fine....
6. Can't really think of anything else - I love Christmas!!

[cat1393]

Count me in.

Do I really need to answer the questions individually!?

I love wooden ornaments...old fashion Santa or not so old fashion. I do like snowmen.  My all time favorite is winnie the pooh. Love ornaments that have the year on them.

My tree is green.
