Advent Calendar Swap 2011 Gallery

[MareMare]

I've opened Day 1, do we post the pic on our calendar space or just as a reply?

I think it's nice to keep all the pics in one post so we can match the item with the calendar/swapper, but it's really your preference! I'm going to put my "gallery" post in my sig and then update with pics every few days! It's nice to hit "show images only" and see each person's gallery! If you want to make new posts each time you post pics that's fine though!

Yayyyy!! Day 1!! My calendar hasn't arrived quite yet but I'm sure it will be here soon. In the meantime, I'm enjoying everyone else's pictures. I hope there are more posted soon. I want to see!!!

I just realized I never claimed my spot or posted a pic of my advent calendar!

Here it is as soon as I opened the package.  Each day is a cute little box!  I love it!



1st days gift was peppermint candies that dh and dd enjoyed.

2nd--yummy lip balm
3--cute hair clip
4--xmas pin
5 cute banana eraser (dd took off w/this before I could take a pic--found and took a pic)
6 mini kit kat bar (I ate it right away lol)
7 cute cupcake eraser that dd claimed too

Finally got around to pics.  
Here's the first 7 days (minus the candy that all got eaten right away)



8&9 earrings
10 cute hamster eraser (dd is loving all these cute erasers!)
11 2 pins--1 w/Hello Kitty that dd loves
12 Hershey kisses
Ok I think I missed posting a day somewhere so these might not be the exact days I opened them but anyway...
14--another cute eraser

15--peppermints
16 and 17--headbands
18--cute little hair clips
19 and 20--erasers
21--earrings

Thank you for everything.

mom2em- I think I forgot to include a note in your package! But, there is no rhyme or reason to the order of your stocking. I thought your daughter might have fun picking one out each day!

It's fun to see new images coming in! The soap that was posted looks heavenly.

grasshopper, your new calendar is really fun and festive!!

Love the Octopus ornament.  So many fun tiny things, can't wait to see more pictures!

I updated my mini-gallery with shots of my new calendar!!

[MareMare]

That's so cool Lime! How are they made?? Funny, when I hit "show all images" your gallery doesn't show up.

Grasshopper, that calendar is awesome. I love the little drawers!

Funny, when I hit "show all images" your gallery doesn't show up.

Oh yeah. Same for me. That's really odd .

I'm not sure exactly how it's made but I think it's done with those plastic mesh things that you can weave in to. They are so smiley and cute .
