Social Distancing Secret Santa - What I Sent

I posted earlier this week that I had received a lovely drink cup (which I am using right now as I type) from my Social Distancing Secret Santa. My recipient has received my gift now, so I can post photos of what I sent to her.

Cheryl loves Poodles, and I decided that I would make her a coaster with the Breyer white Poodle on it.

I got my own Poodle out and took a quick snap of it. Then I cut it down so that it would fit onto a 4x4 inch ceramic tile.

I affixed the photo to the tile and let that dry, then spent a day spraying light layers of glossy enamel onto it to protect the photo when the coaster was in use.

The finished coaster. (I put felt rounds on the back to prevent it from scratching her furniture.)

Also included were a new Breyer Stablemate, a Minnie Whinnie Saddlebred,  1:9 scale silver loving cup and some pencils and a pad of paper (just in case she has a Mini Me who need accessories), a couple of stretchy horses, and a bookmark. Finally, I made her a mask out of some horseshoe patterned fabric.

I have not participated in a Secret Santa exchange for a couple of years, and I am really glad that I signed up for this one. It was fun and I made a couple of new friends, too.
