My Swap Partner

Wednesday, November 21, 2007
I'm so excited about our Christmas Ornament Exchange, it's my first time to join and I already got my swap partner. Yey! I'm going to go window shopping this weekend and see what I could find for Barb. Yep, that's her name. I'm going to mail my package to her first week of December, maybe after I've gotten back from Hong Kong. Hope she'll like it. I am so excited!!! I was surprised how crafty and creative this super mom is. I mean, she's really good. You should see her works. Here are some samples:





Yep, she made those! Isn't she amazing?

Anyway, I promised to post a picture of my Christmas wreath last time. So here it is. It's a gift from a friend.
And here's a Santa and his reindeer hubby and I bought three years ago.

Last Sunday at home, I was so bored and so I went out the terrace and took this picture. I wasn't really thinking of anything then, just appreciating the sunset. I just took this shot and went back inside. Haha! Excuse my amateurish shot. I know I still have to learn the art of taking beautiful pictures. Maybe next time...

Anyway, it's getting late. I got to go now. See y'all tomorrow!

Hi Pia,

Those made ornaments are beautiful! I have two left hands and can't do anything that nice. I love your wreath and Santa sleigh decoration. I'm not ready for Christmas!

Hugs,

Renie

Swaps are blast.

I'm planning to do a hand painted ceramic ornament for my partner.

I've always love those sock monkey.

renie: why not? you know, sometimes i feel the same way too because hubby's not here yet. i really wish God will send him home already. but i've always been told to enjoy my season. God is working behind the scenes and He hasn't forgotten me yet. so this Christmas, i want to do just that - enjoy the season and my season too. it's not that bad after all... (((HUGS)))

andrea: it is! i really hope she'll like what i'll send her.

denise: just wanted everyone to be able to participate and know each other somehow.

cheryl: she is super crafty. i'm just the opposite. haha!

amy: yeah, some people are not like me. just like what renie said, i also have two left hands. haha!

peppy: that would be wonderful!!
