    Default 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 :

    A good lather is half the shave.

    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!

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
