Holiday Handmade Crusade 2011 :: ONGOING

[lapoli]

Well - one solution would be to create an anonymous Flickr name that could be kept secret?

I was feeling weird because I wanted to craft holiday items while the mood was still with me!

Great thread and great idea!

Good--it means I can get my cone Christmas trees done by Valetine's Day!

ORB- those are fabulous!  You're getting me in the mood to make cards, which is YAY.

hey, any ideas about how to create a set on flickr that's public for the craft-along, but that won't give away xmas secrets to linked friends and family?  i'm not the most clever with this stuff and i'd appreciate any tips!   

Hey ORB - I love this idea, because I love Flickr! I used to keep a Flickr group up, but it became a huge pain in the ass to keep, because I had to moderate photos. People would just put in random stuff that they were selling in their Etsy shops, completely disregarding the group's posting rules. I would be happy to investigate setting something up to try again, if people are interested in posting to Flickr.

Plus your cards - uber cute. You are ridiculously awesome...posting 3 days into the year, sheesh!

I loved this idea the first year, but seriously failed. This year I would like to see it done well, and finish strong! Count me in!

I have a couple of things I know I need to finish as well as looking forward to the inspiration from this craft along!

I lurk (and sometimes post  ) in this thread every year! I cant wait to see what this new year brings

I can't wait to see what everyone crafts!

Cool, I was already planning to do this.  I was so upset with myself this year for not getting any homemade christmas gifts done.  I'm also planning to make fabric giftbags for whatever gifts I buy or make.

ORB- I love those, and am seriously impressed that you already have it done. I haven't even had the energy to take my tree down yet!

I'm definitely in on this one. It ties in with a lot of my 50 in 2011 craftalong list. I literally made myself ill this last holiday because I waited until December to start and crafted myself into exhaustion. No way am I doing that again this year!

I am still catching up with "IOU" gifts from this holiday. I really need to join this to keep myself sane next year!
