Thread: Share your Christmas presents for 2013

I have had a bit of a poke around and there are a few great threads on what people have made for relatives or are getting for Christmas.

I wanted this thread to be a drool fest of present after present that everyone can contribute to rather than be limited to a specific person.

If you have pictures of what you are getting please post them now, if it is still a surprise post them after Christmas and share the cheer.

Here's mine that Santa does not know she got me yet :

I can hopefully add some soaps to this thread after Christmas.
You did a good job setting the bar for the "droolfest" as you said. It sure is very good looking. The color, the shape, the everything.

I've got a Crabtree and Evelyn lime set (soap in a bowl plus extra refill puck, cream, balm and bath bar) and MWF in a dish from the sis in law

I'm over the moon! Oh and my wife cooks the best Christmas lunch/dinner, that's what it's all about for me. A whole year waiting for a meal

I like this thread/idea. I doubt I will be adding anything after Christmas (2013 was very rough on my family and finances) but I love seeing/hearing about everyone else's hauls.

Keep em coming

Don't know that I have anything coming my way, but I got 2 identical sets for a couple buddies to introduce them to wet shaving. One lives out of state presently and received/opened his early and he has been enjoying it.
Got them each:
Merkur HD 34C
Silver tipped brush from whippeddog
some cartons of Astra platinum blades
Homemade orange sandalwood shave soap in a bowl

My wife is a custom clothing designer/maker. I have never succeeded in convincing her to make anything for me, and over the years, I quit asking. This year, she made a few bath sets for me. She nailed it!

I'm a lucky lad indeed to have such wonderful in-laws. The sis in law bought me the ceramic dish and puck and a spare puck on top. My excitement weirded her out a bit lol. Best bit is her boyfriend is a barber who has just redone his shop. Got rid of over 100 straights and DEs, that hurt, twice in the past month I've been within reach of hitting a gold seam and missed. Upshot is 2 old spice mugs complete with lids and soap when they come up next week Every cloud!
