Santa's Sack Swap Round 3 Gallery

Yay! I’m so glad you liked your goodies! I had fun crafting for you. :purple_heart:

The necklace was definitely one of my favorites that I made for for this swap! And I’m glad you like the mounted origami! I hope it fits the dark academia.

@AIMR thank you. :purple_heart:

Also the baba yaga house painting is adorable :blush:

I received from geekgirl yesterday, and OMG! So much awesomeness.

First: a handmade card and foreign language papers for crafting.

Photo of wrapped items on the gift bag:

Stocking stuffers/bought gifts:

A foldable Xmas tote, a zippered pouch (upon looking closer I believe she made this one), sewing clips (yay! I was just about to buy myself some), paper sticker bead kit, and a beautiful wooden bookmark.

Made gifts:

A beautiful steam-punk wall hanging, a mini canvas (I’m going to turn it into a magnet), an amiguri cat! (I’ve named him Bugsy. In true cat fashion, hev refused to look at the camera. He’ll be my travel cat because my real cat screams when she’s in the car. TBD if Bugsy screams in the car or not, but I suspect I’m safe hahaha) and… hearts! For my hope heart collection.

Thank you SOOO much, geekgirl! I love everything.

I get to join in on the joyful picture train today! Woot!
I received from the magical @Kwality570 check it out:

First, the whole exciting pile of goodies:

Here are my Positive Pickles ( :heart_eyes:) stickers and candy!

And happy monsters! One in a frame, one as a magnet. Plus you can see my pretty gift bag as the backdrop.

Then a beautiful handmade spellbook complete with aged looking paper inside, and some really cool potion labels. This is immediately my nicest book.


Then I got super spoiled because there’s yet another present! This gorgeous sturdy tote bag that I’m in love with. Great size too!

Ok, this last one isn’t a gift, but it made me smile. I always reuse boxes too, but I love the customization :laughing:

Thank you Kwality! I love it all!

Received a few days ago and am finally able to post. I received from @geekgirl. She sent such an amazing package.

I received a very cool wooden bookmark, a reusable tote bag, beautiful pens (they write so smoothly), cute animal stickers and chapstick.





Now… drum roll please… :drum:… some amazing art done only as @geekgirl can.


I love mixed media and geek girl just knows how to do it.
Next, a beautiful hoopla of an adorable sleepy kitty made of florals.

And lastly, my very own (and first) TM patch!!! Aaahhh!!!

Thank you so much @geekgirl! I loved it all.

Oh and I can’t forget the homemade card!
