Title: Private Advent Swap Saja and Honeycomb
Post by: Honeycomb on November 30, 2013, 08:52:29 PM
The wonderful Saja and me have swapped A LOT in the past, and I am so happy she agreed to do another one with me! This time we did an Advent Swap with 25 gifts to open every day until Christmas.

I received an enormous box from her, here is all the goodies waiting to be unwrapped. What a pile of presents!

My day 4 is this beautiful peacock necklace, the stickers were loose in the box, so I included them into this shot, and the baby pony had no number, so I went thru an noted no days missing, so opened her today, hope that's ok! She is ADORABLE!!

Such beautiful gifts! Honeycomb is a wrapping artist :heart: Tell me more about that stone pony, is he an Idar-Oberstein specialty?
Title: Re: Private Advent Swap Saja and Honeycomb
Post by: Honeycomb on December 07, 2013, 06:44:39 PM
Hehe, glad you like the little gal! Idar-Oberstein is famous for their gemstones, they make wonderful accessories and things there. I went there last summer, and I just had to buy this one for you!

Day 7 was AWESOME! MOC Jurassic Park figures!
Day 8 little food erasers (they look very familiar, lol) and a G3 pony!

Title: Re: Private Advent Swap Saja and Honeycomb
Post by: Saja on December 08, 2013, 12:32:08 PM
Is that G3 pony the correct pose you were after? I hope so, I know she isn't really baity, but all I could find!

Post Merge: December 08, 2013, 12:32:53 PM

and my daughter wanted to "try" to eat your erasers! lol
Title: Re: Private Advent Swap Saja and Honeycomb
Post by: Honeycomb on December 08, 2013, 04:26:36 PM
The pose is perfect, it's one of my favourites! And I agree, she is too nice to be bait, so she will stay in my collection.

Day 9: A dinosaur wood puzzle! I'm really being dino-spoilt here!
