Hey lovelies! This year I decided to participate in the blogger secret santa put on by Abigail (Living the Gray Life) and Cathleen (Classy Cathleen) that connected dozens of young female bloggers to exchange gifts this Christmas! It was definitely a new experience, and it was so much fun shopping for a fellow blogger and getting to know someone through their online presence and find the perfect gift for them!
Honestly, the hardest part of this process was sending the gift. I was so in love with the things I got for my person, I almost wanted to keep them for myself haha! Plus, who knew shipping was so dang expensive! Next year I might be careful to stick with lighter purchases!
Fortunately for me, my own gift was just as awesome! A box completely jam-packed with festive goodies! My secret santa was Katlyn Yates, a 21 year old college student who blogs at Small Town College Girl, and writes about everything and anything! The gift she sent me had so much awesome stuff in it, I’ll just list a few of the highlights!
- Candy
- Nail polish and makeup
- Jewelry
- Oven mitt and christmas kitchen towels
- An adorable oversized mug
There was a lot more in the gift, I’m not sure how she even bought all of it for the price limit, but I absolutely loved opening this gift, there was just so much to look at. Every time I thought I was done I found something new! Thanks so much to Katlyn for the lovely gift, as well as Abigail and Cathleen for running such an awesome program this year. I definitely plan to participate in something like this in the future as well.

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas! I can’t wait to see what is to come in the New Year!
This sounds like it was so much fun! I love Secret Santa exchanges so much because the mystery of who your secret santa is can be so exciting! It also helps you focus on one specific person and really think about who they are as a person and what they’d want. So glad you had a great experience!
