TTPH - Secret Santa Blog Hop

Hello Everyone

Over at TTPH we did a Secret Santa within our Design Team and doing a blog hop for you to see all the lovely gifts. We all had to send to someone and we all got something in return. I opened my box to find inside there was a handmade box (see 2 photos below) The box was all rough to touch I have no idea what it was made out of. My boys loved the box so much that they wanted it so now they are putting things in it :) when I opened up the snowman box it was like it was the bag from Mary Poppins, it just seemed to never end with lovely crafting goodies. I have taken a photo of everything laid out on my coffee table. There was things in there that I have no idea what they are but I love them, they are a thing crossed between a gem and a pearl is the best way to describe them. Also I got lots of buttons and brads in a little tiny trinket box :)

Its safe to say I love all my goodies so THANK YOU whoever my SS was ;)

Here is the hop list so that you can see the other things people got.
