My camera batteries are exhausted and today is Day 1 of our Matchbox Swap. We're supposed to open the corresponding number each day until Christmas. What to do? Well, I took these with my laptop camera – pretty bad but isn't the box just so cute and Tracy at Sunset 97, who made the box also made the gift inside – these adorable little gold Christmas light earrings. Thank you to Tracy!
And you can't really see how neat they are. I've seen a lot of the blogs who have cute little trees and all the boxes on them but I'm sooo not decorated for Christmas yet. In the meantime I put each little box in this little advent tree numbered 1 to 24.
The #1 box that I made went to Shawnees Tangled Tales.
Hope I can keep all this straight….fat chance!!!

Oh my gosh are these ever cute!!!! They look so tempting in the little Advent box. I have made Lots of changes to my Tag Along to make it easier. (You saw it before changes) I have only one group Happy Homemaker. I so would love you to participate. Two tags a month is so doable! I will sign you up unless this will not be okay. Thank you again for lending your talent! Elizabeth
ReplyDeleteoh my! It is so festive to see all of them on the same photo!
