EEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!SQUEAL!  My husband made it to my Mom's yesterday & we were about to do gifts, but he handed me my box & said "I think that's your ST present" so I tore into it & ignored everyone else for a while!  My SS was lynnie & my present is SO GREAT but I can't post pictures until I get back home after NY.  I opened my box & all my gifts were individually wrapped in tissue paper with little pink heart stickies with notes on them, which I LOVED.  So inside were:


*the cutest card ever that says "hey there cupcake" & has a cupcake on it - in a pink envelope, of course & a very sweet note


*One of the Anthro tea cups that I am collecting - it is pink & blue stripe - SO CUTE (and I don't have it either)


*A beautiful owl mercury ornament which is beautiful


*Ganache for Lips gourmet lip balm in Chocolate Raspberry - she said it's her favorite & I can see why - I have it on right now (@7 am no less)


*some of the cutest stationary / envelopes / notecards ever.  Which i also love.


 


Did I mention that I love my gift?  Thank you SO much lynnie - your gift was so thoughtful & I really appreciate it. 


I you guys!!!!!!!!!  everybody got such great stuff! I hope you all have a great holiday.


ETA: picture of the parts of my gifts I was able to scare up for a photo - everything else is in use so no pix!

Sad no more!! I'm home and I got my SS gift!!! My SS was *tada!* Erin!!!! I was so pysched to see the package waiting for me when I got home. It was the best gift, too!

I got a wonderful vintage purse (I've already put all my stuff in it to carry it). It's so beautiful. It's like a miniature carpet bag with great pinks, reds, greens, and browns in it. I'll try and take a pic later.

A Vegan cookbook - I wanted one of these so much! I was going to use Christmas money to go buy one since I didn't get one from anyone else for Christmas. I can't wait to use it. It's perfect.:


An OPI nailpolish in "heartthrob":

A bottle of Solar Oil (how did you know it was my fave?):

A bottle of sugar cane lotion (smells soooo yummy!), an awesome mix tape (I love it all and am preparing to listen to it in the car today when I leave in a bit), and such a sweet cute, card to go with it.

I couldn't have asked for a better SS present. Thank you Erin so very much!

Sorry I haven't posted...I've been out of town, I'm actually borrowing a computer right now...lol.  Thanks for the gift secret santa...it was 2 cute mugs and a green tea from Anthro.  I especially love it because it benefits the Breast Cancer foundation and I am an active participant in the American Cancer Society and it touched my heart to receive such a thoughtful gift...Thanks a bunch!

yay!


My SS was SFCaligirl (Jessica)! I didn't get my gift until late on Sunday. DH and I forgot to check the mail on Saturday so it must have arrived then.


She got me the cutest pair of earrings from a boutique called Ambiance in San Fran. They are like a gold/copper color, hammered metal, mis-shapen hoops. (I think that is the best way to describe them!) They are so adorable. I am sooo happy with them! I also got a ton of candy and the sweetest pink card.


SFCaligirl, thank you so much! I LOVE everything! :)

I'm so glad you liked everything, Fairywings!  Again, I apologize for my horrendous writing.  The message was supposed to be light-hearted, but I realized after I had sealed the envelope, that it had no sentiment at all.  LOL Sorry about that.  Please know that I hope you had a very merry Christmas and that you got everything you wanted.

I could have just edited my previous post, but I wanted to do a new one just to thank my fabulous SS -- dixiegirl!!! She got me a really cute card with sweet sentiments inside, bubblegum pink cashmere socks with a snowflake on the side, a really soft scarf (wearing it today) with crochet details at ends in the same pink and two coffee mugs that were kind of a mauvey-pink.  Thank you SO much dixiegirl!  I loved loved everything and I was so excited when I opened up the box and saw all of that pink tissue paper.  I gasped oh! bec. I had had a crappy day and getting my SS gift made up for it.  Again, a million thanks.  Hope you had a very merry Christmas!

I'm so happy you liked your gift, cluelessinfashion!!  The mugs were from Anthro but the tea is actually made by Republic of Tea and is available lots of places...it's very yummy tea AND a portion of the proceeds goes to BC research.


(here's my shameless plug for this tea, in case anyone else is interested)



Happy Holidays!

YAY!!!!!!!!  I was out shopping and came back home to find my SS pressie!!!  And my SS was Janey831.  And she bought me this awesome clutch wallet.  Thank you so much Janey... It was such a great gift, I love it, Its funny cause I have been surfing the web for months looking for something like this to use when I go out with my friends.. I hate lugging my handbag.  And gold is such a great color, everything I own is black, and this will go perfect!  Thanks again..

Okay, I am officially the worst Secret Santa recipient EVUH!! Shopgirl sent me this wonderful gift but I've been so distracted by work, house/dogsitting and Christmas that I've forgotten to post about it!! I just haven't been on ST at all for the last few weeks!! I'm soooo sorry Shopgirl!! She sent me this wonderful necklace from Anthro and made me a headband covered in blue and black striped satin. It's soo cute!! I will definitely be making a lot of use of it!! She did the best packaging job with matte and shiny striped gold tissue paper inside of a cute pink polkadotted box. I love everything and I'm soo sorry that I haven't posted before now!!

I just got home today and my wonderful gift was here waiting for me! My Secret Santa was aclassicbeauty! Thank you so much for the adorable gift!


Here it is!





The gift included a lovely little linen bag by none other than Lotta Jansdotter, whose stuff I absolutely adore! The zipper bag is a lovely shade of green with an adorable chick print. I love it!



Inside the bag were a shower gel and body lotion from Bath&Body Works. The scent is called cucumber melon and it's so lovely and fresh! I have never tried B&BW before and I can't wait to use these!



In a pretty polka dot envelope, there was an adorable Christmas card with a pink angel on it, and the gift was wrapped in hot pink tissue paper - so cute! I'm so happy with my gift - thank you!

Hedvig - I'm glad you liked your gift! I was so worried when you didn't receive it before you left for Finland because I had mailed it a week before your trip. So I'm happy to hear it was waiting for you when you got home and not lost!

I'm so glad it wasn't lost! I noticed that according to the label on the package you mailed it as early as Dec 14. Thank you again for your thoughtful gift!
