Xmas Card call-out and Key chains.
Post is temporarily made public in case those who don't frequent LJ don't feel like logging in.
Hi!
It's that time of year again! Time for Xmas cards!
Everyone who got one last year will get one this year (at least that's my intention). If anyone moved or some such since the last holiday, let me know your new address! If anyone new wants a card, let me know!
I'm also being ambitious this year and intend to make some key chains as gifts for you Xmas card recipients. I made a handful of these for my Mom's family when her brother passed away, and I have a lot of key chain rings left over. They're made out of embroidery floss, and they haven't fallen apart yet (as far as I know...).
Here's the one Mom has:
It's about 5 inches long, from top of key ring to the end of the "tassel", for lack of a better word. They are about half an inch wide, but could be made wider.
I'm going to make the gifts in the same pattern, but I'll let you chose the colors (or, if you don't get back to me, I'll just chose for you!)
I'm not sure if they'll all have a bead at the end. Depends what colors I need. A few might have buttons, depending.
You can chose either two or three colors. Below are the ones I have "in stock", but I can always go to Walmart and get different colors (they have a wide variety), so let me know!
I think 17 and 18 might be the same color, but I was too lazy to look at the label...
I'd prefer to know by the second week of December (so, December 13). It only takes me a few hours to do one, depending on how motivated I am. :)
--On a side note, I apparently have at least one tag for every letter of the alphabet on here, except for X. So now I have an Xmas tag....
Edit: Important info bolded to make it easier to see. :)
