My co-worker convinced me to join the Holiday Ornament Swap this year. I was really excited to get to do it. 10 handmade ornaments for 10 people, and I get 10 back. To which Greg responded, “Cool! Does that mean we get ornaments to give away as presents?” I just looked at him, mouth agape.
So being a newbie this year, attached are my photos of the progression:
Felt Christmas cupcakes.
The final product.
Cupcakes disguised as candies because I didn’t know how else to package them to send them off.

Cute! And what a great idea to do with a group of people.
I do think there’s going to be a big trend towards homemade and crafty gifts this year, including baked goods.
those are adorable! I can’t wait to see what kind of ornaments you get in return.
So cute!! However, this just reinforces the idea that I could never give you anything homemade, as you’d probably be forced to spit on it, and then throw it back in disgust : )
p.s. if Greg gives me an ornament this year, then I will know that I can scrounge around for his present in my “gift drawer”- haha!
OMG, those cupcake ornaments are so great! Very cool idea!
