There are a few things I should be blogging about before the New year begins... First of all on December 16th I promised that I would blog about the rest of my advent pressies from Madison Makes... and since then there hasn't been a minute to even think about it... so today I am catching up before the new year begins to sweep away the old...
Here are the other presents that Madison sent me for my advent swap...

A Christmas votive.. |

Beautiful little nightlight candles in the shapes of flowers |

Wow! You got some wonderful treasures there.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful gifts :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad you likes your little gifts Jill. I've been on a blog break, coping with my In Law visit and the insane mountain of toys the Wee Man got. I'm going to post pics of the rest of my swap soon.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for them, they really, really made me smile each and every day. Though the Wee Man decided it was his job to open them(!)
Thank you...Madison xxx
