    Nelco you’re cat story made me smile as I have cats 🐈’s too, but they live in the basement, so no tree downstairs. I do put a couple of trees on my main floor.

    I’ve made a couple of ornaments. I’m planning on doing a few more too! So much fun.

    This is my first year doing the ornament swap. I’d love to hear how many of done this swap before?

    This is my second year, Muse&Sew. It was such fun last year that I started thinking ornament idea searching in the spring and summer. We do post photos of the ornament we receive which is almost as much fun as opening a package of your own.

    You can go back into the "archives" and look at previous years swaps and photos of items received. It is good for ideas and how others handled the swap. Lots of lovely items for sure.

    I plan on a crocheted item but then I went shopping in Shipshwana, Indiana yesterday and found a wool kit that is just too charming for words. Who knows what will show up in this year's package! Wink, Wink and Tee-Hee-Hee!

    I am working on a couple of ornaments. I have been in at least 2 of these, but it's been awhile.

    I think I have been in all but one or two of the swaps. It is always a joy to get that little package and look forward to the party date. It makes me smile to get something from the board members. I usually put on the nutcracker suite and have a cup of joe while opening my little surprise ornament.

    I am really into Christmas this year. After Halloween is over, I will begin to put a few decorations up. I think it's because of all the things we've been through over the past two years. I like Christmas anyway so this year it will be extra special. Love this ornament swap.
    Hope all of you are having fun.

    I’m excited it’s only a week now until we find out who we swap with! I’ve made a few ornaments now and after Halloween the fun will begin!
