**Secret Christmas Decoration Exchange - Sent/Received**

[mandymouse]

Yay ! It's nearly time to send out our Secret Christmas Decoration gifts. Are you ready ?

Mine is wrapped and ready to be posted on Monday. If you are posting to/from Ireland, you can send your gift out whenever you're ready

I hope you enjoy taking part in this exchange

Mandy aka Crimbo Bimbo

Once again the rules are :-

1. To buy a present for no less than £10.00 (before postage) and a maximum of approx £20. To wrap it up and send the present out between 7th & 14th November
2. To send the present by 1st Class Recorded Delivery (as parcels have gone missing in the past and you are then able to chase it up with the Post Office), if you don't choose this method and the present goes missing, then you must send out another present
3. To reply to the Sent/Received thread as soon as you receive your gift (as it's only fair to your sender), and to post a photo of your gift too
4. If you are unable to adhere to these rules and put the effort in to make these exchanges fun and special, then you won't be eligible to join in any future exchanges

There was a gift waiting for me tonight! And after the last week I've had it's been a lovely pick-me-up after being poorly, so thank-you to my decoration sender, I love my gifts!

Here's my gifts before I un-wrapped them...

And here they are, my lovely presents...

I got the fab 4 in little cute plushies (Mickey, Minnie, Donald & Pluto) and I'm so excited by these, as I picked them up in store the other week and fell in love with them (I was going back for them on pay-day!) , two Christmas Yankee's, which smell lovely and a very cute Snowman marshmallow lolly and cute card (my first of the year!).

A close-up of the little plushies...

Many thanks to my sender, I love all my gifts! Looking forward to putting them onto our tree this year! And an added bonus, even next year, they'll be 'baby-proof'
