I have pulled out all of my scrap booking Christmas items.
And stickers.
And small printed paper.
Here is what I ended up with so far...
I have worked on 14 of the 25 I am supposed to do. I still need to number each one, tie a ribbon on top to hang the ornament, and put a little gift inside.
The one on the left is hubbies favorite and the one on the right is mine. I am in love with the drawer!
The gifts don't have to be expensive or extravagant. I LOVE that! This little necklace was in a package in my craft room just waiting to be gifted in this little box.
Well, I am off to finish this fun little task.
Have a Merry Christmas!!!

Ohhhh, Mandie!! I'm so excited for you. You found some awesome stickers for your boxes too. :D
Love your blog blingy!! If you remember me...don't let me miss out on any awesomely sweet Christmas stuff in blogland.
oh wow, they look so lovely. You are so gifted. I didn't join in as I wasn't sure I could pull it off. Also wasn't sure if I could join in, living on the other side of the pond. Hope you get some lovely ones back in the swap. Please upload more photos when you are done with all of them.

This is a project that is giving very cute results.
Hi Mandie
Thank you for those lovely comments. I didn't know that you don't get advent candles in the States. It has 1 to 24 written on it & the idea is that you burn one number each night from December first until Christmas eve. Would you like me to send one to you for this Christmas? If so you can e-mail me on christmasbelieve@yahoo.co.uk

Debbie that sounds fantastic!! I plan to do the same.
If we really do move like Hubby is threatening I'll purchase some embroidered napkins from you or something.
Thanks for the encouragement. I feel like the Lord is smiling on me for a second. lol
maybe all this great stuff is really about to happen. kinda like Christmas morning.
These are so very beautiful. Love all the details. I've always wanted to make these, so now I think you motivated me. So very pretty.
