A Midsummer Night's Dream (Summer 2014 Secret Santa) Discussion

[SOSRedAlertSOS]

Just went through all the goodies that I'm sending to my girl and I have no idea how to package it all up.... Perhaps some cello bags to separate products by category. I'm the worst at wrapping stuff and for this I'm sorry FGC.

To my FGM, I'm getting so antsy to find out who you are! And I'm forever grateful for the hard work you are putting into this exchange! I am forever grateful.

So my box is packed and ready to go.  And yay, it fit in the box I'd set aside for it.  

I couldn't decide whether to wait until I put the final touches on the handmade item, but decided this morning that I'll send that along separately.  Don't want my FGD to be the last to get her gift.  I took the day off from work, to finish taking care of some things that never got done around here over the weekend, and this was first on my list.  This is going to be such a fun week!

Heeey, that's our rain! Give it back! (My apartment is so hot that clarified butter is liquifying in my cupboard.)

I would totally give it back if I could. I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll send it your way.

1. I am pumped because I think my package is coming today! A fairy told me it was attempted Saturday so I am going to make a special early exit from work!

2. I am BUMMED. Has anyone else heard of the not wedding? since I just got engaged I wanted to go to some bridal shows in the area, but I didnt want to pre pay or register too far out in case we couldn't go. (My fiance works retail, his schedule is always changing) so I went online to buy tickets today for this thing in Charleston. Its basically where they throw a big fake wedding and you get to see the vendors in action. I figured it would be a cute date night (dinner, drinks, dancing) and also be fun to see some ideas ( its kinda early to plan) but I am BUMMED. I keep trying to find like... ways around them being sold out. Whomp.

Ha I love it! Seriously, mail me the cats. Not sure how my husband would react but our dog loves cats

O I seriously need to send my package out but I keep debating on different hings to add. Anheuser Busch is home here. Not sure that beer is a good thing to send. There are also a ton of micro breweries. Unfortunately I do not know if she likes coffee because there is an amazing coffee shop here as well. So many ideas gah! I just need to wrap the dang thing up and mail it.

Ha I am the same way with my packing. I keep putting things in a glossybox, thinking they might break, then take it out again, then put it in again. Then I keep thinking of other items I could send.

 

[puppymomofthree]

I wrapped the items and the most breakable items, or items that might leak went into ziplocks, and then I put shredded paper in/around the items and bags.

MMmmmmm coffee and beer..... I wish you were my secret santa!

I was using a birchbox, the one from the mother's day LE. I keep changing my mind whether I want to use it or not.

I'd take a beer or coffee even though my diet specifically says to avoid those things. You only live once, right?! If you send beer make sure she isn't under age.

Finishing wrapping and packing and shipping out today.  Can't wait to start seeing all the reveals!!  This is going to be an exciting week.

Also, you could probably send something Anheuser related, I'm sure they have Clydesdale memorabilia too since that's one of their big things!

Some states it is illegal to ship alcohol to.  Mine (KS) is one of them.  But I work in MO, so I can always have it shipped to work    Also, you can't ship alcohol in the mail.  You would need to use a different carrier.
