MLPTP EVENT MLPTP'S 2014 Secret Santa Brag Thread

Aww! Such good swap boxes!
 
You're so welcome, @Peppermint Truly !! You know, I didn't know they even made husky-shaped cookie cutters until a few weeks ago, lol! ;)

And I laughed when I saw what became of the toy--the best ones are the ones you can totally eviscerate, aren't they? Diesel husky is so precious! Give him big hugs from me and his little spaniel friend from across the country :)

Lastly, when I found that little nutcracker ornament, it had some paint scuffs and was all white, so I repainted him in Peppermint Truly colors to give him a new life. So those colors aren't a coincidence ;)
 
Wow, Diesel recovered from the surgery he had a couple weeks ago, just look at the mess! XD
All the amazing boxes are so awesome! Can't wait for more!
 
Don't worry skippteydoo. I have the opposite problem I got my box but I won't open mine until Christmas.:D Although, that is a bummer I hope your box will come soon.

Hooray, glad you like your things! Gusty is my all-time favorite pony, and even though I already have SS Gusty, I cannot deny that it was a little tough to send one away lol. As for the mug, I confess that it is a re-gift. It came from a swap here years ago from someone in Australia, and while I thought it was very sweet, I am just not into G3's, and thought you would get more enjoyment out of it. :)

I received my box from @darcerin a couple days ago. Sorry I haven't posted sooner, I've just been swamped lately.

I had a picture off all the presents together but me being oh so smart deleted it :(

There's a note inside the beautiful card that says there's something I'll love at the bottom but I have to take my time getting to it. I was so excited and wanted to know what it is but I did take my time getting to it :)

First to be unwrapped is some super yummy treats and cute pencils. Heath bars are so popular in our house! I had to hide them from my fiance so he wouldn't eat them!

Next is an adorable lipgloss set and magnet play board. The lipgloss is so cute and gave me a laugh. I've never seen something as odd as brushable lipgloss. I'm also thrilled to see more Cadence merch. I'm really happy the magnet board has Gummy. There just isn't enough Gummy!

I totally squealed when I opened this one up. This is my favorite Luna toy to be released. She looks pretty :ponylove: I love how she's filled with little moons and stars. She also apparently has G3 Bowtie's hair colors :lolpony:

Check out these beauties! I've wanted Island Rainbow since I started collecting MLP! I'm so glad to finally have this rainbow beauty in my herd. Star Shimmer and Baby Sparkleberry Swirl are even more beautiful in person. It's such a thrill to have two more celestial beauties! :ponylove: Out of all the G3s I wanted you picked my very very favorite G3s :D


And now we're at the bottom of the box and you know what the special surprise is?

DSCF9963_zpsc68f27de.jpg


1 whole pound of delicious delicious Jack Links jerky. It's like you read my mind. I couldn't have asked for a better and yummier treat! I've been trying so hard to make it last but it's already half gone. Then again who could say no to the yummiest jerky in the world? :lolpony:

(Even baby ponies love it!)


I can tell you put a lot of thought into the gifts and that means so much to me. Thank you again so much for the totally radical box!
 
@Sherbet, I'm so glad you like everything, especially the candle. I took a gamble on that and I'm glad I was right. It smells so good! :)

The Ninjabread cookie set was based on your "I'm a nerd" comment - and yes, that comment can have a really broad range (I consider myself a nerd too, but probably different from what someone would classify themselves as!), so I took a gamble on that too. Actually, they had two versions at the store "Ugly Christmas sweater" cookie set and Ninjabread. Apparently there's also a Walking Ginger-dead set out there, too. I thought Ninjabread would win though in the nerd category. :p

@Moondream, I'm so glad you liked your box. I was fretting that I didn't have enough "celestial" things in it, then once I saw your post I went "DUH, PONIES". So I guess I came through on that point!

When I do these swaps, I try to hit to hit every "like" the person wants, and the jerky was the BIG one standing out to me. So when I saw the 1 pound bag, I grabbed it and ran for the register! Sparkleberry Swirl looks so happy to be eating some. :)

I have one more pony to send you Moondream. I goofed and didn't have it sent to me in time. So I'll send it either this weekend or Monday.

I'm so glad you both liked your items! :) Enjoy and happy holidays!
 
I got my box yesterday (or was it the day before?) I have pics and I'm gonna upload them but I've just been really out of it lately :(
 
So I got my box today. And I ripped right into it :p Sorry for the blurry pics.. my hands shake sometimes. Anyway.. my parter was @MLPMommy4Life. And she did a super good job. :D

Needless to say.. I was confused by the box of Jello.. as I didn't ask for any :p I was actually going to take it to the kitchen before I shook the box... and didn't hear powder, so I opened it up... and found a certain somebody hiding inside it.
