Good Morning Prim Friends!

Amy from over at Bumble Bee Lane put together another wonderful swap.

This one was called Gingerbread Swap.

Amy and I were partners on this swap and once again Amy spoiled me!

Let's take a peek shall we ~

A wonderful Santa ornament from Boyds!

I just love Boyds ~ as most of you know I collect Boyds plush bears and accessories.

(I know I've been promising to show my collection and I will get on that!)

A huge hooked stocking ~ and I do have a lot of wishes that could fit inside!!!

Can you guess were this came from?  If you guessed Boyds ~ your right!!!

I just Love this folk art snowman with his big smile ~ so me!

and look at these wonderful prim pears!

If you know Amy ~ she doesn't sew much so when you get something like this you know they came straight from the heart!!!

 

Yep there is more ~

Oh ~ I just Love this!!!

I Love the way Amy packaged this up.

Blacken Santa snuggled in sheep's wool which reminds me of his beard and jingle bells! 

What Santa doesn't have jingle bells? 

 

Here's a close-up of Santa!

So Sweet!

A yummy smelling candle, a Boyds bearwear angel pin and a Boyds card!

Just One More Thing!!!

Hello Friends!

So sorry I've been missing in action again ~ I've been trying to read every one's blog post when I can and when time permits I do post comments. 

The days just seem to be passing me by so quickly and I'm tired by the end of the day.

Hopefully I'll catch up soon and can be on an even pace... smile...

I did get back to Rita's wonderful prim shop and took some pics of her shop for all of you to see.

You never know when you'll be in the area and would like to stop by!!!

So many wonderful prim goodies in her shop!!!

Yep more decorative glass jars!

The two jars on the left are mustard jars ~ the two jars in the back are honey jars ~ just love those!

The jar on the right is a peanut butter jar.

I did purchase other items ~ buttons, clothes pins, skeleton keys, tin molds and sewing notions.

Went over to A Simpler Time in Ripon ~ was a little disappointed ~ was hoping to see lots of fall prim goodies ~ but they haven't all arrived yet ~ going to have to make another trip!!!

I bought the child's chair at Graceful Reminders the pumpkin I purchased at A Simpler Time!
