chuckmum6 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Many many thanks to the Elf and swappe, I was intercepted by my Postie with two parcels!!!!! A huge thank you to my secret swapper for paying the painfully high postage to get it here today and to the Elf for insuring I had something should Santa's sleigh have suffered a serious breakdown, I feel rather spoiled now . Thank you both very very much and Happy Christmas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 No we just make stuff and enjoy whatever we receive. It's such a thrill thinking someone has made it just for you. Not a competition, just sharing and having fun Open to all levels of skills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 To my secret Santa, thank you so very very much! I'm guessing it's someone who knows me fairly well. The skill on the picture is amazing and the bike charm (I'm not exactly sure what I am meant to do with it, but I love it ) obviously shows someone who knows a bit about me! Thank you so very very much Drat the images have come out weirdly. I'll get hubby on the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Jane Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Thank you so much to my multi talented secret Santa - I have a beautiful wire sculpted robin with holly in its beak, as well as a glass decoration. I have taken photos (which sadly don't do them justice) and will try to post tomorrow. I am so pleased with them. To those who would like to join in but don't feel talented enough - please do! I feel the same about my lack of skills, but am fairly sure that my unlucky recipient will appreciate the thought, time and effort I have put in. In return I have had some amazing gifts which I still treasure. Much better than a gift set of smellies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Lovely gifts! And I'm absolutely loving mine! I feel so spoiled! Beautifully decorated box Filled with these lovely wrapped gifts Revealing these amazing gifts! My amazing swappee took the effort of matching the gifts with my tree decoration! And the little paper box holds some yummy English chocolates! The paper baubles are lovely too, so intricate! And I'm amazed that everything survived the travel!

Jennifer Jane Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 The post above was my beautiful robin - as I said the photo doesn't do it justice, it is absolutely gorgeous. This photo is half of my glass decoration (photobucket didn't like this for some reason) Thanks again to my clever secret Santa, I am thrilled with both gifts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 What fun gifts and so different. Thank you my Secret Santa for my lovely crafted gifts. A 'save the planet' shopper, a knitted snowman with glitzy hat and scarf, a beautiful pendant and some mince pie scented bath salts I may have to eat myself later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 What lovely presents! I have a beautiful hot water bottle and cover, I am in awe of the skill with textiles, something I am hopeless at - it is really beautiful thank you swappe! From the wonderful Christmas Elf, I also have a lovely little bag, which is now full of make up stuff and will live in my work bag, just what I needed and a perfect size. And a hot pot pad which has a pouch of something that releases fragrance when heated!!! Wow, such great gifts, thank you both of you very much!!!! Sorry, I can't resize the photo on my iPad in photobucket and I am away from my computer, it has chopped off the case and some of the heat pad.
