By Popular Demand ~ Snowman Tangled in Lights!!!

I have had so many requests for the finished version of my Snowman Stump Tangled in Lights pattern. I tend to be very busy and don't have much time for special orders anymore...so...I decided to get one finished and get him listed on ebay! He is actually a mini version of the original. This will be the only Tangled in Lights snowman that I will make this year!



Click the pic above to check out the ebay auction! We started the price low so everyone could get in on it!

Again...this is the ONLY finished Snowman Tangled in Lights that we will make this year.

NEW PRODUCT! Finished product and/or pattern available!

YAY! I finally took some time to make a new ornie! I REALLY love the way they turned out! I usually do a lot of detail with my items but the simplicity of this one made a big impact for me!

I have listed both the finished ornies as well as the pattern for them on ebay!

I hope you enjoy!

I REALLY need to boast!

Ok...I think most know by now that I am obsessed with handmade ornies lol. I just cant get enough of them! Anyway...I recently got some awesome ornies! I just finished decorating my tree and so so happy with them all!

Here are a few pics of some recents. There are more pics on our facebook page in the Christmas Tree 2010 album. Feel free to tag the ornie pics if they are yours and you havent already been tagged!

It's Time to Swap Ornies!

It's that time of year everyone! Christmas Ornie Swappin!

While many of you may already be involved in many different swaps (as I am too)...I also would like to invite you to do a personal handmade ornie swap with me! If you are interested in doing a swap with me, just send an email to auntmannys@aol.com with your address and let me know if we have swapped in the past (so I dont accidentally duplicate an ornie for you).

I do these swaps year round but closer to Christmas I try to get as many swappers as I can.

There are no rules or deadlines for this swap. This is not a group swap. Just a one on one ornie swap between you and me. Doesn't have to be anything extravagant, just a simple handmade ornie from the heart!

I have been swapping for years and my Christmas tree is decorated with nothing but your ornies you have swapped with me over the years... :)

Brenda Has Gone Mad!!!

Every Monday until the end of November she is adding a new ornie to the grand prize! The more people that enter, the more prizes she is giving away as well!

Stop on over and check out her giveaway and dont forget to tell her that Aunt Mannys sent ya!

And the WINNER of the JACK-O-KITTY is...

I know, you thought I would post the name first thing, right? Ok ok...im getting there! But first, I wanted to tell you that the name was drawn by my daughter Zoey...best known for the makre of the "Keeper of The Souls" (bottled ghosts that I have now made into a pattern). She made the piece when she was 11 and WOW...I was impressed! It is one of our best selling patterns and we are always getting requests to make another...so far...only one original exists, however, that may change in the near future ;)

Ok...on to the winner....drum roll please!....

CONGRATULATIONS to....

CARLIE over at STITCHIN' TIME!!!!!

I want to thank everyone for entering! And be sure to stay tuned...you just never know when another giveaway might be just around the corner ;)

The Giveaway Prize is FINISHED! Take a Look!

I got her/him finished up tonight. I apologize for the poor clarity of the pics, my camera wasn't quite cooperating with me in the lighting conditions I had. It was too dark to take pics outside in natural light. Anyway...I present to you...Jack-O-Kitty!

She has been frolicking in the fall leaves and looks so darn cute doing it! LOL For this giveaway, you will receive Jack-O-Kitty and her leaves. The leaves are not attached so you can scatter them any way you like! She looks so awesome in the dark with her glow-in-the-dark eyes too!

I made it easy for you to be able to turn the jack on/off and change the battery with ease :)

Now HURRY! Only ONE more day to enter to win this li'l cutie! See entry post below!
