For artists and collectors sponsored by Intercal...your mohair supplier and Johnna's Mohair Store
Just to let everyone know - I will probably be pulling the names this Wednesday comng.
My "ornament" only needs his ears put on (ughhhh) and feet scultured and he will be on his way to his recipient by the end of next week! Oh ... and even if I do say it myself ... he is sooooo cute!
Looking forward to the swap - thank you for your work dear Karon!!!!
have so many beary hugs from Austria
I can't wait to know who is going to get mine. It's ready.
A question: if the ornament is ready, can we send them right away or should we wait? I'd love to send it soon, I already feel in the Xmas spirit...
I would like to feel christmas too, but with those high temperatures outside, there is more spring than christmas - hahahaha
anyway - as soon as you know your swap-partner give it a gooooooooo!!!!
Curious who will be mine ....
My ornament is very close to being finished too and I am really pleased with it seeing as I don't do small Once I know who my swap partner is I will send it on it's way!
Me too. I have mine almost done as well!
I actually managed to get my almost finihsed on the weekend. Just needs the final touches and will be ready to post.
Mine is ready, just waiting for a place to go...
Mine has arrived - is anyone going to sort out a tree thread? I've posted mine also so it's winging it's way across the world as we speak. :dance:
My X-mas-ornament left my home today for a very long journey to a wonderful artist - I hope she will love it, I gave the little parcel a "push" and said hurry up - so it have to be there just in time for a wonderful x-mas season.
I'm really so happy to be a part in this wonderful swap - have so many beary hugs to all of you and a wonderful time!!!
wow, i got my Christmas decoration yesterday, very nicely packed... it's for New Zealand, thanks Helen.
and i just send the parcel out today, to a long long way, hope she like it and wish it will arrive on time.
My Swap was sent today (a bit later than I wanted it to be) it has a long journey ahead so fingers crossed it gets there before the Silly season ends.
I haven't heard from my swap partner, my ornament was sent in November, Karon would you be able to check with her to see if it has arrived yet?
Thanks
Krista
Okay, I"m feeling a bit better now. I just posted on the other thread about sending my ornament to a Lyn in Australia over a week ago and seeing that a Lyn in Australia already has an ornament. I see now that there are TWO Lyn's from Australia!!!! Whew! I was so worried that I had messed up there for a minute!
Mine left for his long journey well over a week ago so I'm hoping against hope that you get him before Christmas!
Good to hear you got that one sorted Lisa Maybe we should mark ourselves as Lyn C and Lyn P just a thought!
Glad it is all sorted out. Waiting for more ornaments to go on the tree. I will keep putting them on the tree even if it is after christmas.
That would have been quite confusing Lisa... Lyn C and Lyn P sounds good to me
Cheers
Lyn P
I guess we can just chalk it up to a blonde moment! All I could think of was that someone wouldn't get an ornament because I sent mine to the wrong place and that would be horrible!! So, Lyn P...your ornament left the States on December 9th. I know from past shipping experience that it normally takes two weeks for a package to get to Australia from my house. I'm hoping Santa's elves get him there by Christmas Eve!!
Will be watching the post in anticipation
Mine is on it's way to the US so keeping my fingers crossed it also arrives in time.
Bear Hugs
Lyn
Mine hasn't arrived yet....we are leaving for our holidays in Italy today, and will get back on Jan the 1st. so I guess it will spend most holidays in the post box when it gets here...
Well, I'll be ready with a hot drink and chocolate to console him when I'm back!
Well, just imagine...We were ready to leave for Italy, children in the car and everything, and my hubbie goes to have a last check at the post box....and there it is, right in time to come with us....the sweetest ornament ever! Thank you thank you thank you Linda, it's wonderful, I love him with all my passionate italian heart! The little guy hasn't done with his travelling, as soon as he gets to Switzerland from Australia....he leaves for Italy!
I'm going to parade him, and make all my relatives and friends here jealous that I own such a sweetie!
I already made pictures, I'll post them as soon as I figure out how to pass them from one PC to the other...
Thanks again Linda!
Ah Francy, I'm so pleased that your ornament arrived in time for you to enjoy it over Christmas. I must admit that I was little worried when you said that you were leaving for Italy.
Now I am waiting for mine to arrive.......
Maybe tomorrow..........
:dance: I got home yesterday after a very busy day at work and I was feeling tired and more than a bit grumpy from my 45 minute drive home. Then I opened up the box that I received from Pat Hage at Denby Bears and I was so happy. She sent me the sweetest bear ornament in one of the prettiest mohair colors I have ever seen! It is sort of a burgundy wine color. Soo pretty!! You really made my day! And it came in an adorable teddy bear box that I plan to keep my Christmas cards in every year. Thank you sooooo much Pat!
I won't be able to post a pic before this weekend though due to family obligations so if you have a pic please feel free to post it. If not I will try my hardest to get it posted by Christmas Eve.
Post a picture so we all can see!
Came home from a Gruelling all day Christmas shop yesterday to find a package on my doorstep.. Exciting!!! Inside was the most Wonderful Old World Jack in the Box bear in his Beautiful sparkly box Thank you,Thank you Lisa, he is Amazing and fits in perfectly with my Christmas style.
I won't be able to post his picture until Boxing day unless you have one you want to share Lisa.
Thanks again Just love him!
