I am also a fan of the one week grace period! Sometimes shit happens that nobody can control, like broken cars and hurricanes. I am all for grace in the face of the uncontrollable!

If no one cares about the timing in regards to receiving their complete packages, it seems cruel to throw 5 of the 9 participants on the naughty list if the projects don't show up tomorrow. I'll just throw a little something extra in the packages of those who got theirs to me early to even things out a bit. Our candy_coated creator is close enough to me that if she mails her package tomorrow, I should have it by Tuesday, and everyone else's that might be late will probably be here by then as well. What if I push the deadline back to Tuesday, November 15th? That will delay me getting things together and getting them back out to you all as well so then my deadline would be Saturday, November 19th to get them mailed back out. Some will reach you in time for the Day of Gluttony but not all. Everyone okay with that? |

Obv I'm in favor of the new dates that Gemme put forth. Totally okay with me to wait a bit longer.

I sent my package from the post office and it was supposed to get there tomorrow. However, I just now tried tracking it and this was the message the USPS website gave me:
"Information Available Soon USPS doesn't yet have a status update on this item shipped from the Post Office. Information is usually updated within the hour of your visit. Please check back soon." Now I am really worried. Hopefully it is just a delay, and it isn't lost.

I am completely fine with waiting for everyone to get their stuff in.
Georgia Ma'am, the last time I got that message on usps tracking the package showed up the next day. I think things are still moving, but not always getting updated on the tracking. I have faith it'll get there! Also, I wanted to tell you how glad I am that you're back. You were missed while you were away. |

Hi everyone. I changed my BFP password but then had trouble logging back in. It took awhile for things to get sorted out. Wasn't able to get things resolved until today so looks like I'm missing out this time. Dang. However I did purchase postage and handling stamps before everything got messed up and I can send those. Please PM and let me know where to mail them and I'll get those out as promised. Thanks

Hi Gemme, I tried to send you a private message and it says your inbox is full. I wanted to make sure that Max put our return address on the package, or do you need me to message it to you?

I already let the folks know whose numbers I have but all of your packages are on their merry way to you now. Sadly, cricket was the first to send a package to me but will be the last to receive one back. Move closer? Most will be delivered before the holiday.
I wanted to say that this was super fun and, dare I say, very needed. It's been ages since we've done a project and I would love to do more if others are up for it too. Let's take back the craft and make 2023 a creative year! There was a loose glitter project so I bagged those up when I sent them out. If you are glitter phobic, open carefully! It is absolutely stunning, though. Oh, also....for the future wranglers, I would suggest an increase in minimum postage to $7 or $10. Most of the packages I sent were over $5 even though they were relatively light and flat and I didn't send them expeditiously. If anyone has issues receiving their goodies, I have tracking numbers. I just know you all are going to go bananas over everyone's work. We're such a diverse group and our brains all clearly run on different tracks but, damn, I love the station they all wind up at. Happy merry everything, crafty kin! |

Gemme, thank you SO MUCH for running this. Would it help if I sent more $ to cover more of your shipping costs? I would love to do another one of these. It was the first time I'd played with my craft stuff in a long time, and I forgot not just how much I enjoy it, but how much I need to do stuff like this. It really feeds my heart and soul to be up to my elbows in paint and glue and pretty paper, making things. Having the excuse of sending it to this community, that has been a source of joy, support, community, and comfort for so long makes it even better. Count me in on the next one. Maybe a spring/summer theme?
