Secret Santa

I realize that this is about a month behind but I am still trying to catch up from when I lost my blog.   Hopefully this will be soon.  I know I have at least 1 or 2 more posts from the past that I want to post.  Now on to the real story behind this blog post.

My JET team decided that we would have Secret Santas again this year.  Names were drawn from a hat to decide who was Secret Santa for each member participating.  The person selected for you to be Secret Santa for was not your Secret Santa. 

My Secret Santa recipient was my team mate, Gaetana, in New York.  She is the owner of SatinDollCo.  I sent her a lovely bracelet that I call Peridot, Aquamarine and Topaz Crystal Bracelet.  I looked through her shop and thought these colors looked the closest to what she might like.

Ida of Maine, AdroitJewelers, was my Secret Santa.  I received a gorgeous pair of earrings from her.  These lovely earrings have real sea glass dangling at the bottom.  I could not resist.  I had to put them on immediately.  I tried to find some like these in her shop but she doesn’t have any available.  She does have other pairs of earrings as well as necklaces with Maine Sea Glass available for sale.

Now I need to get my Secret Sweetheart 2010 gift done so I can get it sent off to my Secret Sweetheart.  Again, this is a JET activity.  I will write about this after Valentine’s Day.
