Terrific Secret Santa Swap Package

Crystal gets an award for being one of my best partners ever!  She spent so much time hunting out my preferences and then incorporating them into a super special Secret Santa Swap package.

First, the element of surprise

She sent me handmade cards with little notes explaining each gift.  And they were all wrapped - love that!

Adorable knitting earrings like those I fav'd on Etsy


A red hearts scarf that I can wear now through Valentines (and beyond!)


Traditional "fried egg flower" ala Mary Engelbreit, trivet!






A red apron for my kitchen soap or whatever



"Snowman soup" mix in a jar along with a Salted Caramel Chocolate recipe with this cute crocheted cover



Mug cozy


Handmade ornament for my tree



and not one but TWO novels - and not just any novels but my favorite genre, culinary mysteries!!




Here's the whole package

She hit on my love of RED, of all things Mary Engelbreit, of handcrafted gifts, my love of reading; she even stalked my Etsy favorites!!!  I was so blessed.

Check out this apron -- Ruffles, Red, AND Mary Engelbreit -- who could ask for more?!?

THANK YOU, Crystal, for being a terrific partner!!
