Hopefully whomever gets yours will take photos and post.

Thank you so much, oregonpachey !! I haven’t had a chance to try the socks on yet, but they look amazing. Ornaments are already on the tree.


The socks fit and are amazing!! How do I care for them?

kellady    I am so spoiled- you are amazing! We haven't managed to get the tree up yet (crazy month- couple of months?), do you think the kids will let me get away with hanging this adorable tree ornament where we usually put the big one?

The icicles are lovely- if I were more of a jewelry person, I'd be tempted to throw some findings on them and wear them as earrings- they're so sparkly! That festive scrubbie is so fun (and who doesn't need a new scrubbie?). The chocolate was just the cherry on top! <3 <3 <3 Thank you!!

I don't know how to post a picture now that Tinypic is gone!
adhdfashion made the most beautiful butterfly ornament. It is felt and headed and has feathers. It is so lovely!

I have a lowest level paid photobucket account. They were holding my storage hostage.

Mine came!  I forgot to check the mail Saturday, but they were there yesterday.  But I can't get the picture from my phone to my email.  (New phone, I'm sure it's user error.)  I will edit my post when I figure it out.

There was no screen name with mine, and I'm hesitant to post a real name one here, but mine were two wooden star ornaments painted with a very steady hand, I must say!  They are so delicate and pretty.  Thank you!  And the Ghiardelli chocolate squares were icing on the cake!   

Thank You!  

riverrider is her screen name.

I'm glad you liked them! I realized when I got home from work (where I mailed them from) that I left the card on my dresser and that had my screen name on it.

I had practiced a ton with my new cricut and those were two of the best ones. My son actually was the one that painted one of them. He does a much better job than I do.

riverrider . That’s amazing that can be done with a circuit! So pretty!

Edited to add picture finally!   

A lot of trial and error. And a ton of layers. The first ones I did for family were not nearly as good looking or successful!

Gentle cycle in the washing machine and lay flat to dry. Or you can soak them in the sink with some gentle soap and lay flat to dry.

I finally figured out how to do a picture!

[mala]

I'm so glad you knew it was from me and they they made it- I totally forgot to put anything in there with them (I was running late- eek- and it's been a helluva month). I'm so glad you like them, I had so many ideas, but, snowmen are always so fun (I've made quite a few versions over the years, now that I think about it). I'm totally charmed that A is having fun with the knitted ones- I am past the toddler years here, but, I remember how nice it is to have a toddler safe distraction when more delicate things come in to the house- ha!

I love the rainbowy heart you knitted me so much, it was fun that it flipped and I got to make ornaments for you this year! <3

Dr Loretta, Thank you so much for the tiny sweater and hat set! It's beautiful. I'm trying to figure out post a picture. From mobile.

[adhdfashion]

Sometimes if I take a photo on my phone, I can do a screen capture of it. That screen capture is a lower resolution than the original
Photo.

I try to get a photo on my phone, then email it to myself at the smallest resolution.  Then, use add attachment at the top, to add it to the post from my computer.

there are also file shrinker apps for your phone. I use PhotoShrinker for iOS.

If you still have my email address in your PMs, feel free to send it to me and I'll upload it for you. I use still use Flickr most of the time (because it's easy to do from my phone),  but, I can easily host photos on my server, too.

[shortcake2675]

I can post my original photos of it.
