Stacecase Is The Best Secret Santa

Thank you for everything Stacecase.  
You really outdid yourself.    
 I opened my package last night.     

I'm going to have an in home spa day using all the wonderful Aromatherapy products you gifted me, while sipping a warm cup of Mint Green Tea.  The tea bags are lovely.  Many, many thanks.
 
 Hubby and I devoured all the delicious, fancy chocolates before I was able to take a picture of them.  They were as pretty as they were delicious.  
I wish we had restraint when it came to the chocolates so I could have taken a picture of them because they were very, very pretty.  We have been without sweets for several months, and we shamelessly devoured them.   A pure act of gluttony.   We justified it by washing it down with the delicious and healthy Mint Green Tea!      

Thank you again for a very thoughtful and generous package.  


I Love, Love, Love the Delft Dutch Clogs.  If that were all you sent, I'd have been very happy.  I can't tell you how much I love them.  Thank you so much.  And the glitter ornament is beautiful.  Is it unique to Holland also?  I have never seen a prettier Trollbeads box either.  This is not one I had ever seen before, and it's very nice.  It went straight in my bead box (which is a shoebox!).  It really fancies up my shoebox bead box!
   

 Thank you for the two lovely Trollbeads.    A stunning Flower/Fern glass OOAK Trollbead on a deep, rich cranberry/pomegranate opaque base.  It's such a gorgeous color.  It's perfect for the Christmas Season.  I adore it.     And sitting next to the beautiful OOAK is Trollbeads precious Little Acorns, from the Peoples Bead 2013 collection.  Here is a section of a quote about the Little Acorn bead from Rachel Morris, the Little Acorn designer,  ". . . the promise and hope held in the acorn . . ."  I think the squirrels feel this way in the heart of winter when they are hungry and remember the spot where they buried the acorn.  It must give the squirrels promise and hope knowing that the acorn waits for them.  It's the perfect little bead.  They both are.  I will treasure them both.  Thanks a million Stacey.  


Funny how things work out.  I recently purchased two artisan beads that coordinate with the glass bead Stacey!


My husband liked the napkins so much he put them on the refrigerator.  I did not know he did it until I saw them there.  I had to include a picture of them because i felt it was sweet of him to do this on his own.  They are good messages and reminders because sometimes we forget.  


Hubby also took this picture of my bracelet on the napkin.  He really likes these napkins Stacey!    


 Christmas Music and Christmas Lights are the two things I treasure most about the season.    Tonight I put Christmas music in my CD player and decorated it with the snowflake light set you sent to me Stacey.  Thank you for being a part of my Christmas Season my friend.

What a fabulous package!! I totally agree with you Bubbagump! I always find 1 thing in each swap I receive that I LOVE SO MUCH...and don't need anything else even including the beads!! (My cool pumpkin plate and spreader from you in a Halloween swap a few years ago come to mind!) It can be the smallest of things but they have the biggest impact! Those clogs are adorable!!

I love the beads Stacecase chose....such a rich color in your design! Well done!!
.

WOOOOHOOOO!!! SO SO glad you like everything! It was so much fun shopping for you and what a BEAUTIFUL bangle combination you have made!!

Sorry that I'm a bit late to the party Work has been kicking my butt lately, but it was such a nice surprise to see this after a long week. I love to look at the forum on Friday evenings, if I'm at home, and it warms my heart to know you're enjoying the goodies. You deserve it!

BIG CHRISTMAS HUGS FROM ME !!!

P.S. I can so identify with what you said about Christmas music and lights...I'm the same way, my kids always roll their eyes at me because I have Christmas music playing in the house for weeks and as far as I'm concerned the more lights the better (and the more colors the better )

Clark Griswold's house in "Christmas Vacation" comes to mind

Loving the little clogs and that bead is stunning! Merry Christmas!
