Uh oh.  Everything is wrapped and ready, but I just got a shipping email... I had completely forgotten I bought something for my santee! Clearly I've done WAY TOO MUCH shopping.  Guess I can't mail mine quite yet.

  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.

So pretty & colorful!

 
ARGH, my secret santa stuff is packed and ready to go. Now I'm waiting for all the stuff to come in for my hubby and my adopted men in Afghanyland. I WANNA WRAP MORE, HURRY UP!

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.
I'm fairly certain mine wait until I turn off the water after I take my evening shower after I get home from work to do their business and then don't cover it.  Because the kitties' bathroom (a little utility closet that I decided would be *perfect* for this purpose) is right across the hall from my bathroom, I get to walk out of a nice, hot, steamy shower into *that*.

And I used to have a kitty who was a flinger.  She somehow got litter six feet up the bathroom wall/door and across the hall onto the washer and dryer set -- and that was even after I changed to a covered box (I don't think it had a swinging door like my current monsters' box does, though.  That might have helped).  To this day, I have no clue how she managed it.

Oh wow definitely glad my cat is not a flinger she just loves to stink the place up.

  Awwww no! Ugh that must hurt SO incredibly bad. Your santees would be heartless if they got upset about anything like that! Poor thing- get better soon!

  That is gorgeous! Please come over and wrap all my gifts lol.
Geesh, Right?!?!?!?!! Her gift wrapping makes mine look like I was blind folded while doing it. HAHAHA! I may be a gift ripper-opener but I might think about changing my ways for that packaging. I just love that it is Tiffany blue and her name is @Tiffany27la. I don't know if she did it intentionally but I love her more for it! haha.

Hahaha I thought the same thing! I think that wrapping paper should be your signature paper @Tiffany27la

 
All this wrapping makes me feel so slack! I need some "stocking stuffers" before I send mine off... (and a stocking!) but everyone else is so on top of things!!!!

  Aw, no worries lol. I'm actually really good at wrapping normal-shaped things- but these awkward-shaped things have beaten me! I'm sure she'll still like it all. Well, she'd better! lol. I tried my little slinka heart out =p
See..^^THIS^^ is exactly why she'll love it! Your little Slinka heart is beautiful

Other than calling customer service, I do not know. Before working here I didn't have an online account. Wish I could help

Thanks, this is going to sound crazy but that was helpful. There's not a phone number on the Ulta site so I hadn't called. I googled it, found a number and just got off the phone.  Apparently my email addy doesn't like ulta emails either so we changed the account and I'm now good to go!

Aww glad you fixed it! We have accounts with wrong emails/addresses all the time, or sometimes there's just an error in the system and we have to enter all the info in again. It's quite confusing.

Okay...I need help. Is this too over the top for wrapping? I just like to make things purdy :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> But, I'm pretty sure my SS is one who will "tear" into her gifts, lol...

If you went overboard in wrapping, then I definitely did too.

You guys are so talented in the wrapping department. My gals were lucky they were wrapped. Ha ha ha. I've never been very good at wrapping presents.

Wow so beautiful!  Can I send you my presents to wrap? Lol  I have my SS stuff wrapped (minus the homemade thing) and was going to post picks but seeing the talent some of oyu have for wrapping I think I will let it be a suprise for her!

 
Ditto- I even stated that if they wanted/needed to save the money/trees, that's totally fine. Not everyone can be a wrapping guru.

I only wrap in newspaper or recycled packing paper to try to recycle. To each his/her own! No matter how it is wrapped you still get to open it.
 
Now I really feel bad

  it was never my intention to belittle anyone's wrapping capabilities, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going overboard!

 
Dear Santee (regular) A few nights ago, I was on my way to pick up a friend from school & was running a bit late. I decided to make a quick stop for gas & was opening the back car door to retrieve my wallet from the back seat when something awful happened! Well, I didn't notice the huge metal pole next to the car door (in my defense, I was in a hurry & it was dark) so when I flung open the back car door my middle finger got slammed hard in between the pole and outer edge of the door. Needless to say, my finger now looks like a mangled sausage. It's swollen, bruised, & UGLY!  Anyhow, I wanted both my nails & regular Santees to know this, so that they don't get offended when they receive their poorly wrapped presents. I did try my best to make everything presentable. I also wanted to type out a list explaining why I chose each item, but typing for a long period of time is painful too. :'( I managed to finish up one list (nails) yesterday morning, & will do the other (regular) tonight - But I'll have to keep it short. Sorry, Santees I hope you understand.

My finger got locked in a trunk many yeas ago, so I know how you feel. I hope it feels better soon.

Psssshhhh, don't worry about it! I don't think that's how any interpreted your picture. I adore your packaging, am I ashamed of mine? Nope! Took me like 45 minutes and I was trying to be meticulous. But that didn't work out for me, hahahaha! However, I am still very proud because I can have now mastered making curling ribbon outrageously curly!
