Blogger Secret Santa

This morning a Royal Mail van pulled up outside my house. It sparked some excitment within the house, not one of us have ever recived post on a Sunday, or ever heard of it. Not that I'm complaining, what came to my door today was my blogger secret Santa gifts from the lovely Laura at day dreaming foodie. I opened the box to find a lovely card and presents wrapped in pretty raindeer and star paper. Vicki at A Life Of Geekery organised the secret Santa and she asked us to wait until Christmas Day to open them... It seems I'm far too impatient and as so many others are already opening theirs, I thought I would open mine! I hope Laura and Vicki both forgive me!!



 Laura has truly stalked me well! I absolutely adore everything that she gave me. She picked out some very cute cat stickers which I will be putting in my sticker book, four lovely little cat magnets that remind me of Alfie, especially when he was a kitten! A camera stamp which I can't wait to use! I believe these can be found at Stray Jewellery. She also added a pretty cath kidston print mirror, which I will be putting in my  bag later today!


 

 


The bowl which is so beautiful was made by Laura's very tallented boyfriend Matt at Matt Liddle Pottery. I love this kind of pottery very much and always admire it when I see some, so I can't say how delighted I am with this gift.



Laura's card was really pretty and matched the wrapping paper so well. Inside was a postcard, with a photo of a lovely wintery snowy scene. When I read the back, I found out that the photos is of Laura's house in Northern Ireland. It looks and sounds like a lovely place to live, with all the different animals and the countryside. How beautiful.

I can't thank you enough Laura, for all the thought that went into picking out these presents for me. 

My secret Santa gift is on its way and although I would like to share with you what I picked out and who for, I don't want to spoil the surprise for them. If you've taken part in a secret Santa swap this year, let me know as I'd love to have a nosy at what you received! 
Happy Sunday!
