Thumbs Up, Swap Partner! : Here's What Kim Sent

 My partner for the "Putz House Swap" that I hosted was
Well, I have to say that I hit the jackpot when my mom drew her as my partner.

 Everything came wrapped beautifully. And there were so many extras!
It was a big box of Holiday Fun!

Look at this darling house! Kim said she used some of her Aunt's vintage x-mas pieces, the Santa is my absolute favorite! I love how he's standing with his hands behind his back! And then look at the little millinery flowers that are tucked into the trees!

Love that little deer and the mushrooms on the sides of the door!

Looks like Santa tried to get a shiny red package down that chimney, but it won't budge! LOL

Kim also included the cutest vintage copy of "Twas the Night Before Christmas"! That's so ME!
And then look at the vintage matchbox with the spun cotton elf on it! A puppy tag, felt horse ornament, and also a handmade ornie covered in tinsel...she couldn't have given better things!

This handmade Christmas 2012 Tag Ornament is beautiful, and the perfect momento to remember Kim's generousity and this fun swap!
Thank You Kim! Anyone that gets to have you as their partner in future swaps is a very lucky girl!
Erica  :)

    You were very lucky indeed, but then your house was gorgeous, too, so I guess you're both lucky! Sorry I missed that swap, maybe next year.

    Erica, you are a lucky gal indeed. Kim is a wonderful partner...she definitely puts a lot of thought into her packages! Sweet! BTW...when I got home from my trip I found the package with the Teacup Elf inside! How adorable!! I will love him forever! The cute candycanes are on my office tree along with the fun snowman and Santa! I love your etsy shop! =D

    You really did hit the jackpot when you got Kim as a partner. Look at how she drew on each individual shingle-priceless. Also, the blue is perfect with the polka dot trim. Enjoy your little house.
