~~PLEASE NOTE~~ My mother passed away 12/31. Funeral is 1/3. I am extending the date until after the funeral.

Did you know that each month has some odd "holiday's" besides the traditional ones? Well, they do! Here's the link:

I decided Deco swaps would be fun, really get us thinking and get the creative juices flowing.

You will make one Deco for yourself. The theme of the book must be from any of the "holiday's" in January. Daily, weekly or monthly holiday is fine. Your cover should be min 4x6 inches (Think postcard or greeting card). Decorate your cover and to write your name address and theme on the inside of the cover. Make it with enough pages for 4-6 signers.

When partners are assigned send it along to your partner.

Please do not join if you do not plan on resending these beauties after you've added to them. nothing sadder than a Deco never returns home :(

here are some links to help you out http://www.ehow.com/how7458496make-deco-book.html http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=deco%20books http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=mini+album+binding+techniques&aq=0&oq=mini+album+binding+tec

You must have at least 4.8 rating. NO unexplained 1's or 3's within the past THREE months. Newbies welcome.

~~PLEASE NOTE~~ It may take me a day or 2 to go through the participants and get partners assigned so please be patient.

EDIT You may want to add the web site address to your deco, so other signers know what it's about or add directions to what it is...crappy explination, but hopefully you know what I mean. If not, then let me know and I'll come up with a better example.

I love this idea!

Thanks missxkay! I've always though these extra holidays were interesting...and some are down-right funny!

Can this be an art deco or we should only make regular one?

Sounds like fun!

When you say "5-6 pages" is that front and back or just front sides?

MichelleWillow...I was thinking a regular one.

Vegfox....I changed it to read 4-6 signers...that's what I ment.
