6 Blogger Holiday Craft Carnival

AlmostFrugal · 10-24-2008, 01:57 AM

Hi All,

I, along with five other personal finance and life organization bloggers, are holding a six week long craft carnival: Holidays by Hand. If you are interested in participating with your post on sewing, quilting, papercrafts, food, embroidery or knitting, just let me know!

I'd love to participate in something like this but don't really have the viewership in place to be very fair to other participants...I am planning on sharing my favorite drink mixes this week though.

We'd love to participate. Do the articles have to be newly published or can they have been written earlier in the earlier?

My sister wrote a post back in Feb. or Mar. about how we turned our old Christmas tree into furniture - namely a music stand and a table (pictures of finished items in the post).

Make Something Useful Out of Your Christmas Tree

We'll try to think of some others if you'll have us.

So what you can do is contact the blogger hosting the food theme (Ann from Vintage Mommy/One bag Nation) and submit your article to her. If she likes it, she'll include it in her post that week (appearing December 9th).

Here's a link with the schedule and everybody's addresses http://almostfrugal.com/holidays-by-hand/

The articles don't have to be newly published at all- other wise I don't think anyone would be able to participate! But I'm not sure which theme this article would fit into. Here's the link to the themes http://almostfrugal.com/holidays-by-hand/. Take a look and see what you think.

Hi,

I thought I had replied to you- sorry! It's not too late for you to participate- just contact the host directly.
