This year I decided to "mix it up" a bit and participate in an Advent Exchange instead of my usual 12 Days of Christmas Exchange. I received a package from
Cyndi in CA on December 1st - Just in time! :)
All the little gifites are under my tree.
AND ON CHRISTMAS DAYA very cute snowman kit from Janlynn:
LAST ONESI don't know where I went wrong, but somewhere I didn't photograph a giftie and I don't know which one it is. Anywho, two sets of gift bags and floss...
DAYS SEVENTEEN, EIGHTEEN, NINETEEN, & TWENTY
DAYS FOURTEEN, FIFTEEN, & SIXTEEN
Meari had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb...
a lamb (sheep?) finger puppet, DMC Linen Floss,
and Carries Creations Floss.DAYS ELEVEN, TWELVE, & THIRTEEN
The mini whisk got the best of me.
I "felt up" the package and couldn't
figure out what it was, lol. Cute little
spool of ribbon, and a Gingerbread
Christmas ornie.DAYS EIGHT, NINE, & TEN
A Tropical Paradise Calendar (Boy, what I wouldn't give to be in a tropical paradise right now! A girl can dream, can't she?!), Pair of Festive Christmas Socks (Guess what I'll be wearing on Christmas Eve?), and a paintable Sleigh ornament
DAYS FIVE, SIX, & SEVEN
I think there was a Santa theme here :)
The star Santa is paintable -- I'm looking forward
to decorating it up. Plus, another skein of Carries
floss. Can't have too much floss!DAYS THREE & FOUR
Cute snowman cube note pad and
a skein of Carries Creation floss in a
Christmas-y color. Very nice!DAYS ONE & TWO
A pedicure set in a pretty blue color, and a
Stitch & Hang Santa ornament. These are
great little patterns for on-the-go projects. :)Thank you for all the gifts, Cyndi!

Oh I'm so glad they arrived in time. Enjoy!
What fun! It's always so uplifting to have a gift to look forward to opening each day. First couple of days look great!
how fun Meari!!!! I am doing a 12 days this year. I mailed mine out yesterday!!!
Your tree looks lovely! I've not yet joined one of these sort of exchanges, might give it a go next year.
Cute!
What a neat idea. Great little gifts Meari! I look forward to the next 11.
I am going to have to remember to join in on this next year! What a fantastic idea and great gifts!
Days 3 and 4 are so cute, too!
What fun!
Cool exchange. Love the gifts so far. Where did you sign up for the Advent exchange. I was bummed that we didn't do the 12 days on ILCS. I would have loved to do an Advent exchange.
Nice gifts so far, Meari. This exchange is my favorite of the year.

Wow, what a nice exchange. I hope you continue to be blessed Meari!
What a great exchange idea, you've got some fun stuff (and the flosses are gorgeous). Hope you haven't gotten anymore snow to have to clean out of your drive, boy you had a lot. I got done cleaning my drive a bit ago, we didn't get nearly as much as you did.

Nice gifts
What fabulous gifts. Can you send the CSE link my way? I'd like to check it out.
Great gifts!
Very nice exchange, enjoy your gifts!
What a great idea for a exchange...We should think about doing it next year on ILCS
