I did an earlier round with the people who messaged me right away, and I was waiting until next weekend to do a final round. I could do another round this weekend, I just don’t want to end up not having enough people to match?
Ooh, yes, most any type. I have a collection.
Me, too! I usually wait. Or I put them up if it’s a nice day outside, but don’t turn them on until after Thanksgiving. One holiday at a time for me!
That’s a fabulous idea: Put up the lights but just don’t turn them on yet.
I just PM’d but if you don’t get enough new sign ups that’s okay .
@applelover since you know who I am I’m not going to bother with my elf alter. Would you mind PMing me pics of your boys? Maybe Olive, too? Still brainstorming and looking for inspiration.
You’re in!
Jingle Jingle elves! If anyone else wants in, please PM me by tomorrow, I will do the final name draw tomorrow so we can all get to work in our toy workshops in time to load up the sleighs!
OK elves, it’s go time! Check your PMs, and if I somehow missed someone or messed up, please let me know! Otherwise, happy elfing! Please try to get your packages on the sleigh (aka in the mail) by Dec. 9th if possible, especially if you are shipping to Canada. Let the elfing begin!
I have mine and woohooo I am excited! I like my match😆 Not much time to shop & ship, but I will try🏃♀️
Happy Elfing! COTH isn’t letting me set up an alter, but super excited to send out something unique
I’ve never had success with creating alters. So it’s always just plain ol’ me.
I have my match’s main gift. Now it’s the fun part of adding fun little stuff to fill up the box!
The official USPS shipping deadline for the lower 48 US is December 18 - I had initially said December 15 to be on the safe side, and then someone pointed out that it’s December 9th for Canada. I know I always do better with an earlier deadline, but please just do your best to get things sent off in time to arrive before the big day!
Hello SirenSong! Your elf is here and shopping!
“Matchy” has so far face planted into “budget” but I am seeing what I can do to get creative.
I did not do an alter so I can’t say who my recipient is ( lazy elf here) but shopping is done, waiting on the elves to get it together but it should all be there for the big day!!
Crud, I totally forgot about all this in the whirlwind of holiday plus work stuff. If there’s any late joiners, could I still be included?
I can’t seem to get my elf profile to work. I am just waiting on things to arrive and I can wrap and ship!
Oh SirenSong!
Your prezzies are on their way in a festive box. All but one present are wrapped separately. The last one doesn’t wrap well, but you may want to use its parts before the 25th anyway.
Have fun!
Thank you so much to @MunchingonHay who let me know about the Canadian Postal Strike - Canadian giftees, please know you are not being grinched, but those of us on this side of the border will have to hold onto your packages until the strike is lifted. The good news is, that just gives your elves more time to shop! I will keep an eye on this and try to update when we get news. @MunchingonHay or anyone else with more details, please feel free to chime in!
