Secret Santa Reveal!
So, I need to begin this post by letting you know that my computer crashed. Like, crashed and burned so bad. Right before a super exciting post that I needed to go live today! This post! I collaborated with some amazing bloggers to do a secret Santa and I was so excited! A few days ago I was able to find out who my Santa was! Her name is Danielle and she is the blogger behind Creatively Homespun. Her blog is so amazing and she has so many great ideas from recipes, life, and DIY projects.
She is truly a sweetheart. That is why when I tell you what happened next, you will be heartbroken just like we were! I was so excited to receive my box in the mail from my secret Santa, and when I got home, all my kids assisted in opening the box, and what we found, well, would have been truly amazing! She had sent me a beautiful set of white, ceramic serving bowls. But guess what the good old postal service did? They busted all three of them! Like, shattered. Into small pieces. Now, I know it was not done on purpose, but what a bummer! Danielle was so quick to act on this and she was so sweet and kind about it. So, as of today, I don’t have any pics to share, but that will change soon and I will update when it does!
So while you wait on pins and needles to see my reveal, go check out Danielle’s blog! Here are a few of my favorites!
DIY Spring Wreath-Creatively Homespun
White Chocolate and Cranberry Macadamia Nut Cookies- Creatively Homespun
I think I may need to go make these cookies tomorrow. Don’t they look delish?
So, like I said earlier, I will be updating this post when we get things straightened out. I am so grateful to have been included in this fun secret Santa gift exchange, because without it, I would not get to meet amazing people like Danielle and the other wonderful bloggers collaborating on this!
If you’re curious on who I was given to shop for, I was secret Santa to Chanell over at Hobnail Salvaged Goods. You can check out the goodies that I sent to her!

Now listen, it is Christmas Eve tomorrow and I am so excited! I admit, I wish I had a few days more to prepare and I am not ready to say goodbye to my Christmas decor. I hope you all have an amazing holiday season!
Oh no! Big time bummer! I must say however that your blog is so beautiful and I absolutely love Danielle’s site too. Hoping you have a Merry Christmas despite all that’s been going on. I’m blaming it all on the crazy weather…something’s in the air and we lost power last night…still out this morning…hmmm weird year! Here’s to the new one 🙂
How funny, we lost power for about 3 hours Christmas Eve day and I was in a panic because of all the things we had to do! It all worked out in the end! Thanks so much for your sweet words! I love your blog as well! I hope you had a great Christmas!
Oh Sara, I am so sorry! What a bummer about your computer and the bowls. My son wanted a snow globe of all things, and my MIL sent him one, which broke in the mail. Very sad. At least it’s nothing major. Have a great holiday, hope your computer is up and running!
Oh! Snow globes are quite temper mental aren’t they! Thanks for the sweet words! As you can see now my computer is up and going great!
Gosh, bad luck for the past couple of days! I hope you had a very merry Christmas! Can’t wait to see the ceramic goods!
Ha! Thanks Heather, I cant wait to get them either!
