The Great Hand-made Gift Exchange Craft Night Party of 2012

On Thursday, the 20th, the Craft Night girls gathered for the first official party at our new house!
Jennifer, our fearless craft-night leader, instructed us to each bring 7 hand-made gifts to exchange.
 The gifts.
 The food.

 I made a couple of cake stands and some Christmas tea towels.

 Ashley brought an assortment of goodies, including spices for mulled cider.

 Heather brought nail polish for our "mistle-toes."  
Good one, Bean.

 Heather is demonstrating Amanda's Lavender Chamomile Brown Sugar Oatmeal Body Scrub.
It is fun stuff.

 Brooke dipped the stems of glasses into chalkboard paint and wrote our names on them.

 Stephanie hand-stitched darling pairs of owl ornaments for everyone.

 Jenny made lovely canvases.
 Everyone had to have theirs signed by the artist.
 As we were opening these, Bing came on Pandora singing 'O Come Let Us Adore Him.'
 We all had the best time.
This just might have to become a yearly tradition.
