VINTAGE CHRISTMAS STOCKING SWAP

SNEAK PEEK at the VINTAGE CHRISTMAS STOCKING SWAP
I have mailed off my Vintage Christmas Stocking swap goodies to Mandy – Pearl Maple.
Here is a sneak peek at what I sent
.


Mandy is a Canadian who lives in beautiful Queensland Australia – so it is a ‘beachy’ place to be.





I have carried on the beach theme with the decorations that are with Mandy’s stocking – even a couple with an Aussie theme to give her a laugh.






Mandy has lovely white and cream throughout her home so I tried to keep things in her colour range - hope she likes what I sent.

Hi Alison
Hmmmm - looking good!

Hope your Dad gets to Rehab soon, mine is finally home after I think four months of hospital and Rehab, he's doing very well now, is loving being home! Thinking of you and hopefully we can catch up for a coffee soon??

I see sparkles! No hurries on the pay if forward. Do it when you have time, even if it is in a few months! It's suppose to be fun, not stressful. Have a beautiful week and hope things get better for you.

It was so good to read your comment on my blog. Your sneak peeks of the stocking are very intriguing. Can't wait to see the whole thing - I'm sure it is beautiful!
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the states, so I'm send out some blessings to you and your family. Have you heard anything back about the Nuclear PET scan that your father had. Waiting is so difficult. I had that scan many years ago when the doctor found a small tumor in my fibula. I'll keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.
