Posting here as well, that I had put in the reveals section, here's a little preview for the box I'm preparing for my santee for regular SS  :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />, I'm afraid my nail santee on the other hand will be shipped later than wanted because I'm waiting on a few things that I ordered so I apologize for that.



Gift Box 1 of 3

Okay...I need help. Is this too over the top for wrapping? I just like to make things purdy

But, I'm pretty sure my SS is one who will "tear" into her gifts, lol...

  So excited to send out my gift that I didn't even really think about the fact that I might get my own gift this week!

My mail lady/UPS guy are going to LOVE me this week. I have at least nine orders coming. One of them is actually a drum set I ordered for my boyfriend for Christmas, which should come in six big boxes (How am I going to hide that?!). 

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!

For the drum set, tell your BF that your boss/brother/mom got a huge gift (hmm, something plausible, but not a drum set... Giant Tupperware Set?  Your company's employee Christmas gifts?) and asked you to store it at your place and they'll pick it up later on Christmas Day (so he's not suspicious when it's still there late Christmas Eve).

Or, if you have some friends or relatives close by with some extra storage space, hide it at their house til Christmas Eve.  Good luck with that one!

I may or may not have shoved a bag of pet treats in my SS's box. LOL My work had 50% off dog treats for Black Friday... couldn't resist...

That's so sweet!

 
I wrapped mine! Just waiting for one more thing. Here are sneak peaks of my nail ss and regular ss boxes. Is it for you? Maybe!...but which is which??? ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

[@]Tiffany27la[/@] your wrapping is so good. My skills are lacking- especially with all the weird shaped gifts my girl's getting lol. Hopefully she doesn't see how well you wrap (makes me look like I didn't try at all! Lol) =p

 I bleed glitter!
Perhaps TMI, but it really happened:  I blew my nose today, and the inside of my nose was coated with sparkly turquoise eyeshadow.  It was like I had been snorting rails, except it was Geek Chic Cosmetics' We're All Infected instead of recreational pharmaceuticals.  I have no clue how that happened unless my tear ducts are feeding my eyeshadow to my nostrils.  I'm kind of curious to see what my sinuses look like.  I'm envisioning a '70s disco.

I just pictured that in my mind after reading this lol.

I woke up to this story all over my fb feed this morning. I still cant believe it so sad.

 
I can not stop shopping for my giftee.

I am seriously out of control...this is so FUN!!!!!

I wish I could share the "finds" I just found w/ all of you NOW!

Question...if I wanted to buy some flat rate boxes, do you know if the postman delivers them?

Can it all be done online?

I am trying to avoid having to physically go to my post office...

Thanks in advance!

Sad indeed. I wasn't familiar with his movies or F&F but it's tragic.

My boyfriend dragged me to the new high end fashion outlet mall in Rosemont on F'ing Black Friday.  It actually wasn't too bad once we got past the parking lot, but people were standing in line with vouchers for their high end products.  Yes, lines for Prada and Michael Kors.  Definitely not my usual shopping place, but the lines were down the mall.  Geesh.  The bf did score 3 suits from Sarar, for the price of 1, which was a totally sweet awesome deal.  And I um, may or may not have bought a gigantic luscious cross body Coach bag for $<100.   I can neither confirm nor deny that the gorgeous piece of green buttery leather I'm now cuddling, was a black friday find. (And my boyfriend is doing the - I told you so, dance, from the other room as I type this).  I was adamant that I wasn't going near a mall on Black Friday, but he needed work clothes and it was totally worth it.  No Sephora outlet though - wouldn't that have been awesome!

That sounds like a great deal!

 
Spent yesterday doing nail SS and today I finished up regular SS.  So excited to mail them off.  Here's a sneak peak at regular SS.  Nail SS was much harder to wrap and I packed the box and almost had to sit on it to tape it shut.  Silly me forgot to take a pic.

  That's good in theory, but in practice, cats don't give a shit that it's stay-away-from-stores season.  I take that back.  They give a lot of shits.  Especially when you just used the last of the litter last night.

Bwahahahah, that totally made me giggle out loud. Our two are Mr's poop-a-lot.  We use a 55 gallon tub for them and it's one box of litter at a time, because we have someone who likes to think he's digging to China,

Lmao no matter how much litter I put for my cat she finds a way to move the litter aside so she can pee on the  bottom plastic. Also I found a really good littler that controls the ordeos really well and what does she do? she no longer covers her poop so she can make sure the bathroom smells like kitty butt.

Aww, I'm sorry @slinka! That was totally not my intention! I'm sure your girl will love your wrapping because it came from the heart!
