Christmas in July

There are a lot of things that I should be blogging about right now (like our AWESOME trip to Arizona, the latest crafts, our camping trip, etc) but it seems like too much work for right now.

What I'm really interested in is CHRISTMAS. Yes. I know that it's only July - stay with me. I read online about some women who did a Christmas craft exchange and I want to start one!

The rules are simple:
1. Post a comment, email, or call me to tell me that you want to participate ASAP!
2. Make a Christmas-y craft that you would be willing to give away between now and November 1st. Yes, you must make it. It can be any kind of craft that you want - sewing, scrapbooking, painting, graphic design, etc.. Nothing perishable, please.
3. Do not spend more than $30 on your craft (but feel free to spend less if you're a good bargain-hunter!)
4. Shortly before the November 1st deadline, I will give you the name and address of someone else in the group and you will send them your craft.
5. By the second week of November you will receive a Christmas-y craft from someone else in the group. Think of it as opening a present early!
6. WHATEVER YOU DO: DO NOT put your new craft up for display in your house until AFTER Thanksgiving - that's just wrong :-)

So, what do you say? Are you in?
