SSCS gift has arrived!!!

My SSCS gift arrived today. It was sent by Odette, who lives in Chile!
The parcel took a little longer on its journey, but it was well worth the wait. My Christmas has lasted an extra few days! :)


Inside the envelope were some sparkly wrapped parcels.

Below is the note Odette wrote on the back of the Santa.


Inside the parcels were lots of goodies! The stitchery on that bag is amazing! The cosmetic purse held even more treats!!



The choccies are yummy! I love tea. I drink lots of tea everyday, so everytime I make a cup of tea I will remember Odette. :) The buttons are wooden.....look at that cute teapot!




Aren't the Santas cute!!
The stitchery is sooo amazing here is a closer look!



The bird is beautiful....

Thank you Odette for your thoughtfulness and all the skill, effort and time that has gone into creating these gifts for me!

Thank you Elf Chookyblue for all your time and energy in organising such a successful swap!
