ZAPPED! "What did you recieve in (Starry_Solo's)Christmas in July Exchange?"

When I got home from work today, I saw I had mail and assumed that it was some things I had ordered from eBay since I'm going away this weekend. However, the return address was a bit of a giveaway and I thought "hang on, this might be my SS...but its a box...whaaattt?"
Soooooo, I opened it. Inside the box were some immaculately wrapped gifts; Christmas paper with ribbon & Disney princess tape :) Here they are and as you can see I got some great Princess themed sweeties & Monsters Inc biscuits too

:eek2: :anxious: :hsd:
There was a lovely note in Disney font & a card with a cool cute Minnie Christmas themed First Release pin attatched.
Then I opened the gifts.... :eek:

One package contained some really lovely tea lights from the Disney Store. I actually love candles in general & Disney ones! How will I ever burn them? :facepalm:
The second package was a box...a Walt Disney Showcase Collection box. In side was a wonderful Lumiere Christmas hanging ornament, which I then spent ages trying to find a nice place to display.
Finally there a was a pin: [pinpics]23205[/pinpics] which since I have a small but much loved collection of both princesses and castles, fits right in to my collection :D
Apologies for the picture but here is the pin in its new home


So, a massive thank you from one end of the country to another to Charlotte (charlottetowell) for my great, festive-themed, wonderfully presented Summer Secret Santa. Its really lovely and I can see that much thought & care went in to it :hug:

The stickers are great I love stickers I have a huge collection of stickers and these are just perfect.
The pins Pocahontas pins are awesome and I love them and as for the Rolie Polie this is my most favorite, treasured pin I never in my life thought I was going to own this pin, I've sent so many request and haven't gotten any responses so thank you so much this whole gift means the world to me and this is just pretty amazing of you thank you so much!!!!
 
Okay-so to my person that I need to gift. Please know- the only reason why I haven't sent it is because I'm making it- and I have total anxiety weather or not your going to like it to be honest. Lol.
But on to what I received. -
Maya (Disneygirl333)
And I can't thank her enough.
A pin from my signature non-the less as well as pins I've been hunting for the past month. (The glitter dress one is gorgeous!)

She included a cup with mrs. Potts and chip. "One lump or two." With my favorite white chocolate kisses inside. (Those to say the least were gone fast!) lol
But my most favorite was her drawing of Vanessa and sweet note with flounder on it! Thank you so much!!!

+1. I sure hope I remembered to PM the person giving me my gift. I ran out of space in the message box here on DPF.

Please keep me in the loop as to who hasn't received anything by sending me a PM or email. I will send out gentle reminders on 8/1 or 8/2.

EDIT: If, by the end of the mail day on 7/31 you haven't received your Christmas in July package, then send me a PM that night (or the following day). I have a chart of everyone who is matched with each other and have been receiving emails with DC #s too (which reminds me, if you have sent out a package, please make sure you send me the tracking #!)
