I have had a couple stained glass made, but there is normally a 3-4 month lead time as the artists are already booked up for Xmas this yr. Most of the artists on etsy will be booked this late in the yr, I had two quilts and a needle felt made a couple yrs ago and I placed my order in June in order to guarantee Xmas delivery. If you have a nice photo, there is a company called treasure knits that does wonderful woven afghans out of a photo with about a one week turn around. I have had both afghans and pillows made from photos as xmas gifts from them and they do great work.
Gift Exchange: Winter Holidays 2008

Yeah, he loves those too. They look too small for the basenji, but he does wonderfull with it. Medjai can't catch things that are thrown, but it's nice and small so, when it just bops him on the head, it's ok.
-
I didn't know about the summer one but this sounds like fun! I'm in!!
-
Any update on the status of the winter gift exchange? I wanted to start shopping soon
-
Last call for submissions.

Please keep us in the exchange - I'm hoping EL D will still be with us.

Are we still doing this? If so, maybe I didn't see my email & it got caught in my spam-filter?
-
I can't remember if I signed up, drat! (I can't remember what I had for breakfast either, but that's another story, hehe) I WANT to be in the exchange, it it's not too late.
-
I'd say email according to the beginning of the thread. I haven't gotten my exchange person yet, so I assume that it's not too late to sign up.
-
Emails are going out this weekend please let us know if you did not get yours by Monday.
-
I just got done shopping. It took all I had to only get Medjai one thing from the store. I highly advise shopping without your dogs. They just love too much stuff.

Several members (Youngandtired, DiegosMom) who signed up for this gift exchange, emailed us saying they did not receive their basenji buddy info.
All the buddy info emails went out last Sunday, so please check your mailboxes. Maybe it's in the junk folder. Anyone else who did not receive their basenji buddy info email for this gift exchange please post to this thread asap and we will resend it.
-
We got our email earlier this week & mailed our package on Tuesday..so hopefully our basenji buddy will get it tomorrow!?!
-

Janneke,
You can send the presents next week. It's at your own discretion. As long as that is done in timely manner.
BasenjiByTheBay,
We have not gotten any submissions from you in our mailbox giftexchange@basenjiforums.com. Have you sent us the information?
-
Yes, I sent it on Nov 28, right after I saw the emails at the top of this page sounding like it wasn't too late to sign up - I'll do it again now - will that work?
-
Found the email from 11/28 and forwarded it to you again. Let me know if we can still play - thanks!

We did get our package yesterday and Chase and Zahra were quiet all night chewing away at those Bully sticks (which they can have, I just have to keep an eye on Chase who inhales everything). Those were the biggest and thickest bully sticks I have ever seen, where did you find those? The water bottle toy is very cool and the snowman with the rope arms and legs seems to be a favorite with Zahra. The Christmas wreath did not survive 5 minutes, they are quite the chewers and pulled off the nose of I think what use to be a snowman. I took some pictures and I will post them next week, I have a great action photo of Zahra shaking the snowman and both furkids on the couch with their bully sticks (until DH came home and remembered what they were and kicked them off the couch).
We especially loved the Christmas card and Jackpot's picture which is now hung on our fridge so that we can look at our new friend!
I am hoping to get Jackpot's in the mail tomorrow but I have finals and several papers due this weekend so I am a little out of my mind presently and may not be able to send it until Monday.
Thank you so much for your package, it was so much fun! We hope you enjoy yours as much as we liked ours.
-
I'm so glad you got the package & that your furbabies enjoyed all their presents!
Those bully sticks are from one of our local independent pet stores & they are "red barn" bully sticks. Jackpot LOVES them. The "water bottle cruncher" toy & the rope snowman sound like they were a hit as well. Glad to hear. That's cool that Jackpot's pic is on your fridge.
