I would give the gifts anyway. And then star working on things you want to make for yourself or for another chairty, it's their loss...Some one needs to show them what Christmas is all about and you can set the example for sure, good work, hugs

Good Morning,
Absolutely give your gifts. Made with love and given with love.
As for the White Elephant game:
1) It is only one part of the party!
2) Is this the game where you can pick a new wrapped gift from the pile OR take someone else's gift that you like. This goes on until all the gifts are taken. We used to call it 'A Chinese Auction'.
Forgot to say Love your tooth pillows!
It is a lot of fun!
Enjoy! Merry Christmas.

For what it is worth , here's what I'd do. I would take my white elephant along with all of my other gifts. After the exchange, I'd get my gifts for each person and I'd give them too them. I'd explain that even though they had changed their plans after I had worked so hard on their gifts that I still wanted each one to have the special gifts I had made for them. That way, you'll go home feeling good about yourself and I imagine they will be a little bit ashamed of themselves.

Well...do the grab bag thing but go ahead and give your gifts to their intended recipients. That is exactly what I would do. The adults in DH's family do not exchange gifts...but I still give a little something to my sis-in-law. You have worked very hard...so give.
