Yes. Really. I know you haven't even gotten the jack-o-lantern off the porch or finished off the Halloween candy. You might even still be in negotiations with family to figure out who's going to have to host Thanksgiving, and probably haven't a clue what you're going to do for holiday gifts.
But that's where the Netroots Nation Holiday Bazaar comes in! In the past, there have been some pretty damned cool stuff on offer, from the hands of some very talented Kossacks. As always, this auction provides some key funding that allows Netroots Nation to continue its year-round programming and operations.
But we can't really have an auction of hand-crafted, cool stuff—jewelry, art, needlework, furniture, quilts, toys, food—if we don't get those donations of cool, hand-crafted stuff from you, the community.
Here's your chance to shine, and to share your talents with the community. So far we've got, as tradition now dictates, a hand-knitted afghan from Nolan's mom (that'd be the mom of Nolan Treadway, intrepid Netroots Nation Logistics and Political Director), a prayer flag and a reclaimed wood sculpture, among other things.
And I've heard a rumor that those incredible Kentucky Bourbon Balls from the past are going to make a triumphant return.
That gives you the range of possibilities for you creativity. Seriously, if you can think it up, can make, write, photograph, paint, knit, sew, bake or sculpt it (weld? carve? whittle?) we want it.
Take your inspiration into the comments, and let us know what you'll be able to donate. You can also e-mail Karen Kolber at karen@netrootsnation.org to make your donation.
The Holiday Bazaar begins on December 1, and runs through the 6th.
