This Christmas and for the first time my blog participated in a blogging game and project with the very joyous theme of Secret Santa. Zina of Ef Zin Creations blog and Tzia of One Perfect Day blog organized this cool idea. So, this project of Christmas gifts exchange really gave me great joy and took me back to my childhood.
The concept was to make pairs of bloggers and send handmade or personalized affordable Christmas gifts without knowing our couple. And, one day a very pretty crafty parcel with the cautious warning: “Your Secret Santa is here!” was delivered in my hands from a very talented girl named Dimitra. I immediately thought: “This smells like Decor Asylum‘s business”. Of course, I had to wait until the night to open it, not because of a kind of tradition, but to save it from three-year-old “Bob the Builder”.
And, when I finally opened it, I was amazed by the care that Dimitra had shown to package her beautiful crafts with artistic tenderness. A gray handmade tray by felt with a lovely small mushroom and many handmade Christmas ornaments by white clay! All so fantastic and well-made! Like her wonderful blog, Decor Asylum, and her amazing and stylish DIY projects! What else is a DIY blogger to ask from Santa and Christmas?
Thank you so much, Dimitra for your unique gifts! Of course, I will keep them all year hanged on the wall of my home office desk. And, thank you so much Zina and Tzia for this wonderful opportunity. Wish you all have a happy and creative DIY New Year! And, you can find Dimitra in her gorgeous blog and her social media pages:
