Sweet Saturdays - A Nice Surprise

For Sweet Saturdays, I'd like to share a nice surprise I had this week! Fortunately I was home during the day when the doorbell rang. The courier delivered this package! Who doesn't love to receive any kind of gift? I was delighted not even knowing what it was. It was a gift from our financial advisor. They used to send Gingerbread House kits but the kids are grown now.



It was an evergreen wreath complete with decorations and instructions on how to decorate it. It smelled so good too.


And here is the finished product!  Warning, these do shed needles every day, but they are real, you know!

    What a wonderful present! The Boy Scout troop my boys were in sells wreaths and pine roping every year. When they were active I'd buy items, but now I'm content to pass on the scent and stick with an artificial wreath on the front door.

    How lovely! I love surprise gifts, too. Are you hanging it outside or inside the door? If I were to hang it outside, it would be stolen within the hour. Years ago, someone actually stole my parakeet and its cage from my garage! The nerve!

    Gigi, that's terrible about the robberies there. We hung it inside, I know it will shed less outside though.
