These are the categories. Email me if you have questions. I try and keep the descriptions a little open so as to encourage people's imaginations.

Deck the Halls - enter softie decorations like Christmas trees, ornaments, stockings, advent calendar, tree toppers, mistletoe, a snowflake mobile.

The Worst Gift I Ever Got! - Have fun with this one. Please include a note on the softie's flicr page to tell us a little about your softie version of a horrible gift!
