Today we changed our swap

"Twelve Days of Christmas swap"    "Seven days of Christmas swap"            a tradition continues? Yes, however we did change the tradition a little bit this year. 

Due to lack of time, we have taken the freedom to change the lyric about the 12 days of Christmas on to the 7 days of Christmas.

This is what I made for Marie-Louise this year. A white-wash wooden tree with 8 packages.

Yep, there are 8 packages and not 7.  I couldn't resist to make, I just had to wrap it, one present with a task. The first package may be opened on the swap day. The idea is to devise something we can make with a few pieces of red coral.      

This is what Marie-Louise made for me:  

 A village around a small wooden box.

 In the box are all the presents.
She had some problems with counting. It was found that 9 packets were sitting in the box. In the presence of each other, we have already made open a gift.

With so many wine bottles it looks like there lives someone who loves wine in the Bickersgracht.

Is this beautiful chimney a part of his livingroom?  I'm sure I know a very nice spot for this chimney. Looking at these two first gifts it is for sure that  the spoil has started. What will I find more

What for more beautifull things will I in the packages?
