In looking through last years thread, all kinds of interesting and beautiful items were sent out.

I have a question for members that have participated in the past.
Once you draw a name, Do you do a bit of digging on the boards to find out what your Giftee is interested in?
Or do you play to your own strengths as far as crafts go?
I've got several ideas on the drawing board now, but was curious to see what Y'all thought.

Thank You.

Gus,
once you are sent the person's name that you will receive, you can find out what they like.  One thing that was very helpful last year was when people sent me their addresses, they also sent info like are they Left handed?  what their draw is, other interests.  Not everyone receives a bow as you saw.  This isn't a bow exchange.  But what you do receive is a handmade gift sent from the heart.

Again if you would like to be involved in the christmas exchange please go to the christmas exchange sign up thread to sign up, I would rather not have to jump back and forth between threads. Thanks
