Scent is Cranberry Chutney!


Gift #2, look a Fortnoff's box!!!!



Inside was an amazing ornament of Sunflowers (my favorite flower!!!!)



Gift #3 was also from Yankee Candle, (Cira I have the large one of this around my pillar candles so I love it!)



Here's how it goes:


Gift #4, look a cute tiny bag!!


Inside was Lindt Chocolates!!! Yummy!!!!


Gift #5 was a CrossStitch kit, with glass & mat included!!! It's so pretty!!!


Here is all the gifts together along with a beautiful card she sent.



Thank you again Cira!!!!!

Re: The OFFICIAL secret santa gift thread...post your gifts here!

WOW everyone got such beautiful gifts!

Jeannad67 I'm happy you liked the frame - when I saw it, I thought it was perfect!

I'm so excited about Christmas! I put up my tree and although my gift is unwrapped, I'm putting it under the tree!

I just love this SS!

Shamma - Patience! I'm sure as soon as you get back from Sunny Florida you will finally get to see your gift! Had you stayed here in the cold with the rest of us you would've had your gift too!

Re: The OFFICIAL secret santa gift thread...post your gifts here!

My turn ... my turn!

First and foremost ... I want to thank my secret santa LisaW for such a thoughtful gift. You are such a sweet Secret Santa. I was so happy (even ask Rob) when I got your gift and opened it. The whole night I was saying ... 'she's so thoughtful' 'that was so nice of her' ... etc ...

I opened my gift on Saturday. We actually put up our Christmas tree, so in the midst of moving the furniture and cutting some branches, putting up ornaments ... I opened my gift.

Lisa did her research ... she found out that I wanted to start scrapbooking, so I got this beautiful scrapbooking kit from Susan Branch. It has everything I need to get started and it's soooo pretty. I can't wait to get started. I also got a votive candle holder from Yankee candle with two scents ... christmas cookie and home for the holidays.

Here are two pics of the scrapbook album ... I have to take a pic of the beautiful candle holder and post that later.

Thanks again LisaW ...

Re: The OFFICIAL secret santa gift thread...post your gifts here!

Jenny IS my secret santa!! (I thought it was her! Her great personality still shone through the alias)

as I posted in the other thread:

She got me this awesome suede limited edition Andy Warhol journal, and she got one for herself too! So we both can record all the upcoming changes 2004 has in store for us! (I used to write in a journal all the time - this gives me a great excuse to get started again!)

SUCH a SWEET idea!! Thank you so much Jenny!! And I love the snowflake pin!

Now with pics:

Re: The OFFICIAL secret santa gift thread...post your gifts here!

Sage, I am so glad you like it, I did not know what to get you, I was going to put a basket together with a novel, candles and a world music cd, since those were the things you said you liked. But then I got scared with choosing a good novel or a good cd and a good flavor. So off to B&BW I went, I have never seen or tried that flavor before, all I kept hearing in my head was she does not like girly/flowery smells so when I saw that set, I liked it so much I got the candles and the massage oil for myself. I am so happy you like it. Hope you and your hubby uses it in good health. Roger and I enjoy ours. Happy Holiday sweetie.

PS tell me how you like the massager.

LisaT you and Jenny have inspired me to buy the journal and start writing again. You ladies give some great thoughtful gifts
