Thank you to Mini Gnome for my wonderful Secret Santa Package

I'll admit, I pulled the individual packages out of the parcel and thought "Oh no! There's no card, I won't know who to thank!"




But, Mini Gnome was sneaky (albeit very fun!). She put her message in a Christmas bottle!





In addition to the fun Christmas in a bottle, I got Peppermint Bark, which I have sampled and hidden from the rest of my family; a purse-sized packet of kleenexes, perfect for this time of year; a Christmas sponge/scrubber; and a Trollbeads stacker! I have a black stacker and use it for my X links, and it's getting a bit jumbled, so this will solve that problem perfectly!

Mini Gnome also seemed to read my mind with the beads that she sent - a beautiful cobalt blue glitter ornament and the family of seals (excuse my very dry hands  )



I had just decided to put a blue glitter ornament on my "track down and buy list" for my Christmas bracelet I was also thinking recently that I should switch up my winter bracelet this year. I like it, but it hasn't changed that much  in the last few years and needed something new. In another thread I was saying that I wanted to get a polar bear bead, and now I really need to because it would go so perfectly with my seals on a winter bracelet The seals also remind me of the trip that we took to the Galapagos islands a few years ago where we swam with the turtles and seals there



Thank you again Mini Gnome

I'm glad it arrived safe & sound and that you like your treats and beads! Enjoy!!

Oh I love your swap package the seals make it so sweet.
