Fly Tying

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Santa's on his way...

Recommended Posts

Bringing cheer and flies to those who otherwise would get a lump of coal...

 

So, everything is through the post. To make things easiest I got a pile of stamps from PO and those sent in and got my old drug meat scale out and and weighed and stamped each one. Can't guarantee someone won't need to chip in a few pennies but Postmistress said she sure appreciated what I did and wasn't going to bother to weigh and check them like they usually did to mark postage due.

 

So as they start to arrive let's use this thread and ONLY this thread to let me they got there. I will apologize since Santa in doing some baby sitting for nieces and nephews kids caught a cold and COPD and a cold pretty much make a person miserable I just didn't have time to sort and take pictures. I'm hoping a lot of people will take pics of their gifts and I'll start a thread specific for posting Christmas gift pics AFTER Christmas. For everyone but Hazathor I put in some goodies from the Dungeon. Talked to the Mad Scientist himself and he treated me right when I said they're going out as Christmas gifts with his ad on them. http://www.flytyersdungeon.com/

 

I have no ties to the Dungeon at all other than his prices let me throw in a Santa stocking stuffer gift to each person but if any of his products work for you consider his site and pricing. Oh yeah, about Hazathor, you will get a couple of stocking stuffers but I used them in your gift box to keep the box inside from rattling. You will, of all people, be amazed at your gift and the spinning wheel treated you well.

 

This is Santa, N0GYM....OUT....the North Pole station is closed.

 

NOTE that strike thru on your name means you let me know yours arrived.

I'm looking forward to it! I just got the Christmas Box I ordered from the Dungeon yesterday. Can't beat what comes in that selection for the price. So many flashy things and in colors I'd probably never have picked up on my own. It definitely has me thinking of creative ways to use it all.

I hope whoever got mine can put them to use...

 

Cheers

My box has arrived. I think Santa sent a nice snow storm our way along with it. Expecting anywhere from 3 inches to a foot of snow here in upstate new York this weekend. A big thanks to Stabgnid can't wait til Christmas to open them.

Well mine came in today, now the tough question,do I put it aside and wait till Christmas or set it under the tree and "hope" my toddler doesn't open it.

Clearly you give it to your toddler and ask them to put it under the tree! :)

Santa made it to my place today. I won't open it until Christmas. Thanks for all your effort on this. It's such a great idea!
