Secret Santa Thank you post

ranchera20 · Marc Jacobs

YAY!
Boots was my SS this year! And I have to say this gift could not have gotten here at a better time! I was in a car accident Wednesday night and I had just finished my last final today, this made my day!

I will try to take a picture of my gift tonight. She got me a beautiful gold glitter coin/card pouch, a purse hook for tables, lots of different samples, an ornament, and a beautiful bracelet that looks like three different ones but they are tied together with a bow, and some chocolates. :)

Thank you so much Boots, and Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Boots · Gucci

So glad you liked it. I made the bracelet, and well not being particularly crafty, I had hoped it would be OK. I tried to do the J Crew bow thing.

Sorry about the accident! I hope nobody was hurt.

YAY!!!!!!! My secret santa was itsapinkthing!!

When I got home from work I didn't see anything at the door, but it's because my boyfriend came home during the day, saw the package, and put it on our dining table, and then forgot to tell me! Just a few minutes ago, he said "oh by the way, here's a package you got today." AHHH I was so excited. I love my gifts!!

I took a pic on my phone...not sure how clear it is but these are my gifts:
-2 sets of earrings (blue/red, pearl/green)<---will be great for work!!
-a flower-esque ring<---LOVE IT
-a cute little red pouch with a flower on it<----is actually something I really need to keep things together in my purse
-AND....a headband with a flower on it :) <---I'm wearing it right now!!

Thank you soo much. I love all the gifts. Happy holidays to you and your family!

I hope you like everything. I tried to take into consideration the things you put in your likes/dislikes post. I thought the headband might be too obvious from me, but then I thought maybe it would be expected and I did not want to disappoint ;)...
I had so much fun making everything. I made everything but the little pouch. Happy Holidays! I hope they are wonderful for you!

Boots · Gucci

My Secrete Santa was Luv2shop!!!! Yay! It was such a nice surprise when I got home yesterday (it's been a hard work week.)

She sent me all of these little lovelies individually packaged so I had lots of gifts to open! There was a set of gittery nail files, a peppermint lip balm, cute little clippers and tweezers, a pocket mirror and a pop up travel brush (which I REALLY needed! I've been meaning to buy one for months!) Plus she made me a lovely necklace with a blue and gold foil pendent. Very cute!

I love everything. Thank you Sabrina! I hope that your Christmas (especially this first one with the new little one!) is wonderful for your family.

Yaaay! I am so glad you liked everything and that it came at a good time! I am a fan of wrapping everything individually, like you said, more to open! lol
Merry Christmas to you too!

I received my secret santa gift from Lomish today! I was so excited because once again I had forgotten all about it. Hubby came in with a box with my name on it, and I still had no clue what it was, lol. I have been so absent minded lately.

Lauren, you don't even know how EXCITED I am about my gift. I have had such a sweet tooth lately that those cookies are going to hit the spot! I'm going to bake them tonight! I'm totally lovin' the cookie recipe book and my ornament! It's so creative and thoughtful, I LOVE it!!! Thanks again and happy holidays!

Sibeski · Dooney & Bourke

Rosie, I love my gifts!!
I'm forever needing little bottles of lotion for work because I'm constantly washing my hands. The dish towels are too cute and such a great idea. Buggy Bean stole the change pouch right away and hasn't stopped carrying it around.
Double-triple THANK YOU :)

You are so very welcome! I tried to make a little care package with cold weather necessities, lol. It was Mimi's idea to include the candy - she picked it up at Target and wouldn't let it go. I'm glad you like everything.

YAY! You're very welcome. I'm so glad you like it. I figured it would be fun thing for you and Mimi to make together! I'm glad everything got there quickly too because I just mailed it on Monday I believe. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays :)

KaffeeKlatsch · Marc Jacobs

Just to reassure my SS...I DID receive my package. I'm just saving it to open at Christmas, so I have something under the tree! :)

Escrime · Kate Spade

To my SS: I was out of town for a little bit, and then I got trapped due to the snowmageddon of 2009 in DC. I should be back at the end of this week and will get to the post office to pick it up. :)

itsapinkthing · Coach

My SS was joy0302! She sent me the prettiest necklace that she made, the funniest thing is it had a charm that I used in one of my pieces on Etsy. I wanted to keep the necklace I put on Etsy, and now I have my very own! Thanks joy, I love it! Oh and there was the CUTEST card! I'll try to post pics soon...

joy0302 · Kate Spade

itsapinkthing-I am so glad you liked it! It was so funny, because after I made it I saw the same charm in your shop. I almost redid it, but I figured if you had also picked it out you must like it! LOL! Great minds..! I hope you have a great Christmas!

Also, I am not sure if my SS sent out my gift, but if so please don't worry. I was out of town and my neighbor signed for some of my packages. She has not been here though for me to get them since I got home last night. I just didn't want you to worry that I had not gotten it! :)

My SS was RelRel! She sent me some wonderful biscotti! It is so good RelRel!

She also sent me a beautiful snowflake ornament and a present for Barkley! Everything was wrapped beautifully and included two cards, one for me and one from Buford to Barkley! It is so funny, because Barkley is always nosey around boxes and bags since he thinks everything should be him. It was really thoughtful that something was in there for him and he loves the bowling pin! He has been playing with it all morning.

Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

I'm so glad you like everything! And I'm glad Barkley enjoys his new toy!

My SS was Ranchera! She sent me two beautiful necklaces and some hand-knit slipper/socks as well as two yummy lip glosses. I can't wait to get home tonight and put those socks on!!!

Escrime · Kate Spade

My SS was Sibeski!! She sent me some hair sticks to put up my hair (she remembered the BBQ skewers I used in Puerto Rico! LOL) and a super cute top. I can't wait to wear it. I always love tops that other people pick out, but I can never seem to pick out anything that isn't black or gray for me. Thanks for putting some color in my wardrobe. :)

Thanks so much, Sibeski. It was great to open the package and see what I got. :)
