I'm the kind of person that loves random yet meaningful items. My secret santa somehow totally got me, even including a sweet handwritten note!

She sent all the items in an old film tin canister, I absolutely love and live for movies. In it I received: a beautiful handmade locket necklace with green beads (my favorite color), adorable turtle earrings, a vintage Christmas postcard, a sticker from New Orleans along with a postcard from Marie Laveau's House of Voodoo and an awesome cd from her husband's band that also took place in New Orleans. (I had mentioned in my likes that New Orleans is one of my favorite cities.) Also included were a cute heart shaped stone with flowers etched on it, lip gloss, a booklet of films from the Traverse City Film Festival 2014, a skeleton key w/ a green ribbon, a couple of jade-like handled tools and awesome pins for altering clothing.

2014 has been a year of ups and downs, so receiving a gift with so much thought and care put into it really made me cry happy tears for a minute. Thank you so much for all of the goodies, this has truly been one of the best gifts that I have received in a long while.
