Parcels dispatched and parcels delivered...

The Christmas swaps in Blogland Season are in full swing...
Satu, in Finland, has opened the small parcel (the decoration/ornament) on the first day of Advent...yes the self-proclaimed Grand Duchess of Hexagonia has been 'at it again'! lol (I do love working with them!) 


I haven't always remembered to take a photo of the goodies wrapped up, before I sent them, but I did remember before I put these parcels in the Santa Sack, I made for that swap...and these are on their way to Alison in Victoria...

Then on Wednesday, the postie brought me some postbags and a postpac box and inside the bag were these...

These parcels came all the way from Nicky in New Zealand; Chookyblue's Swap!!! And that means there is a little parcel that I could open straight away...it's the one with the gift tag...


And here is the lovely ornament that Nicky made for me. The photo didn't show the true colours; Nicky had 'stalked' my blog for a while and had discovered that I love purple and the bauble is actually purple and very beautiful! I love it! And the rest of those items in the photo are now under the Christmas tree...


Well you're probably thinking that I have received quite enough goodies for one person...but no. Remember I mentioned that the postie brought a postpac box? Here it is, and it's full of parcels too!
These gifts are from Alison who was my partner in Cheryll's Santa Sack Swap...
I will start opening these when Alison receives my parcel...(see above)


Yesterday I received yet another parcel; the Kris Kringle Swap organised by Jodie the Haby Goddess...Suzanne from Sydney made this beautiful decoration for me...

 As well as a lovely stitchery on the front, Suzanne sewed a design on the back as well.

 Suzanne didn't include an email or blog address with her parcel so it looks like I will have to send my thank you by snail mail :-) .
