I'm so thrilled Traci was my ornament buddy! She remembered how much I love sugar and had her artist friend make an ornament especially for me. It is beautiful - candy coated and the cutest little gingerbread men with pink ribbons on them. NO - the candy isn't real - Traci knows I would have ate it! Being the awesome person Traci is, she also made a gift in my name to purchase groceries for one person through Alternative Gifts International - I love it and am honored that she did this!

Hope everyone enjoys their ornament as much as I do!

Hugs, Debi

    So glad you like it!
    I'm so glad you like your ornament, Debi -- and that it actually got to you!

    I sent it Priority Mail, and kept track of it after it shipped -- for some reason, it went to Florida by way of New Jersey. I know that shippers have hubs in random places, but it STAYED in New Jersey for 2 DAYS before finally making its way to Florida! It was like the package wanted to take a little vacation, but wouldn't you rather be in Florida than in New Jersey this time of year? :-)

    I hope your ornament brings a little extra sparkle to your tree -- you might want to keep the grandbabies away from it, so they don't try to eat the candy!

    Unique
    Dear Debi,

    The ornament is definitely unique. Having it made special for you is an added gift. A lot of thought went into the gift for you. Tracy did a super job in what she chose for you.

    Lots of Hugs,
    Janelle
