Couperwife Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Maybe I shouldnt be trusted with the organising Can you all check that you have sent me your addresses (check your sent box) I thought I had them all, but it seems not so, I'm claiming baby brain (she is 8 months - how long can I keep this one going) and the fact that I am blonde Cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 She might not be getting notifications. Or perhaps little one isn't well - that time of year! But I don't get notifications for anything from Omlet and I know my boxes are virtually empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couperwife Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Im here. Been super busy. Lsst night we went on the polar express its a train ride from Stanhope station near Durham to the north pole little sproglet loved it, she didn't have a clue what was going on, but she found it all hilarious Cathy X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Oh how lovely! I saw the Polar express for the first time the other week. Only really caught the last bit with the ticket master snipping messages into the tickets etc & the bell, but it actually made me cry. So sweet, so to go on the real Polar express must be very magical. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggasperated Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Oh lovely Couperwife we read about that in the Times, we used to live in Knitsley (near Consett) and I loved all the area around Stanhope. Really miss Durham, I would certainly have gone on the Polar Express if I'd still been there . One of our favourites was going out to Hamsterley forest to choose our Christmas tree as it was all made into such a lovely experience, wonder if it's still the same (that was 15 years ago).

Jennifer Jane Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 My parcel has arrived! I had instructions to open one of the packages before Christmas and it contained some beautiful crocheted snowflake bunting, which I have already put up. I will post pics after I have opened the other package. My ideal gift - instant gratification & anticipation combined. Many thanks to my swappee DH has just come in and said that someone's been busy knitting, poor dear still doesn't know the difference...

Cat tails Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Just opened my swap gift! And it's awesome! It's a very lovely long scarf in the exact blue colour I always go for! Almost a sea green. I'm not kidding, but my new winter coat is the exact same colour! And looking at the weather forecast, I'm going to need a scarf too. Also a very lovely handcrafted card and matching card. Thank you so much my secret Santa swappee! And a happy wonderful Christmas to you all!

Egluntyne Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 Thank you so much to my swappee for the gorgeous gifts. Pictures to follow. I have a gorgeous hand crafted pine cone, a book mark and a beautiful charm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Well, what a lovely gift I got, I really REALLY love it , what I think is great about these swaps is that I get things like this that I couldn't make myself. I am arty - I am an art teacher, I can draw, paint, sculpt etc, but I am rubbish at textiles, so to get something like this, so beautifully made is wonderful- THANK YOU!

Olly Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I've received a lovely hand-made card with a beautiful Christmas wreath, and a lovely diary covered with fabric with stars and a penguin on the front. Can't make my iPad link to Photobucket so pictures to follow, but I'm absolutely delighted - what clever Omleteers there are out there! Thank you, 'Elfie'.
