Christmas Stocking Swap 5 *-*-GALLERY-*-*

[Michela]

i got my package from boobiemay today and boy was I ever spoiled. we agreed on a medium stocking and techincally this package was but i still feel majorly spoiled! everything is so awesome!!!


Look! Crisp white tissue tied with shiney red ribbon! What more could a person ask of life?


First the bought stuff cause I can't fit everything in one shot. there are some garlands for my mini tree, some scissors (which I really needed, I just put some dings in my last good pair0, micky mouse cards, cookie cutters1 (yay!), journaling stickets, xmas-y knitting needles and some ribbon.


handmade stuff part 1: gingerbread! Super chewy, extra gingery gingerbrad to be exact. My favourite kind. it tastes simular to my recipe, which is incidently my favourite recipe. This one my take that spot though because i didn't ahve to make these ones ;p. candied orange peel which no one ever makes for me and for some reason I can never get right. a stocking hanger, knitter yarn ornaments (soooooo cute!!), a twilight printed leather journal with matching 4 colour pen. and what might be my faouvrite thing, Hair curlers!! They are awesome. I;'ve been meaning to make myself a set because i love having curly hair, but my pin-straight, baby fine hair can't handle a curling iron and isn't strong enough to handle rollers which leave me with velcro rollers which don't make very nice spirals. I'm going to play with them tomorrow


and last but not least, the stocking! It's leather with a matching beaded lip balm holer which was put on my keychain right away. And yes, that is a Grey's Anatomy scrubs top. It's is awesome! My inner fan girl had a good squel over that. My love of Grey's is deep (ask me about that term paper I wrote about it :p), and now I can show the world!

Thank you soooooo much BobbieMay! I hope you like your stocking even just a fraction as much as I love mine. I'm going to go in the corner and have major swap anxiety now lol

Just a last parting action shot

edelC - I am a little jealous of your Christmas pudding.  Also, it is giving me ideas for next year....

wow ... Im away from a computer for a few days and there has been an explosion of wonderful goodies..... everything looks great.........every one is doing such a great job.......but i really like the fabric baskets made out of jeans......the floppy disc purse.............. ........ and the cowboy boot stocking........

So I am about 3 pages late on this...but I looove the deer stocking! I am needing to make a quick stocking for my new baby, and this may be just the idea to steal.

The deer was hand stitched on, but if you made it as an applique and did it on the machine it would be way quicker..........

I got photos of my stocking package from Tracethekat!  Here goes:

First off is the stocking:


Little face scrubbies which I was very excited about and I believe a neckwarmer, which is very very pretty.



The most beautiful ornaments!  One for each of us, we were very excited about these!


Christmas dishtowels and a scent diffuser:


A camo bag for my son (he's taking it hunting tonight and a scarf for my daughter:

Thanks for swapping with me, tracethekat!

Nice package, Sevs.  Those ornaments are amazing! 

[SevsOnlyGirl]

Aren't they?  They look so complicated!

[pinokeeo]

Lots of detail.  Looks like it would have taken a lot of patience.  And yes, they do look complicated.
