What are You Getting For Your Secret Buddy??

Looking for a wonderful gift for your secret buddy? I know that each month I am on the lookout for something special and meaningful to send to my secret buddy. This is what I will be ordering.

About a month ago, Verna sent me an e-mail letting me know about Robin who is using her sewing talents to raise money to bring her daughter Hope home from China. I went to Robin and asked her if she could put together a dress that would fall into the price guidelines of the Secret Buddy group and still allow her to make a profit so that we could help her bring Hope home. This is what she came up with....and yes she named it after ME! Isn't it cute?

Kimberley Dress
$20
(made with Touch of Asia fabric)


Flower Power Halter Dress
$25
(matching headband $5)


Panda Tote (11.5"x 13")
$17.50

The blogsite is http://www.ourblessing.chinastork.com/ There is a link to it right on my sidebar that will take you directly to her blog. There are many other items there to choose from also. Shipping is not included in the price but is very reasonable. :)

Thank you so much Robin for working to put together something in the SB price range. I just love the dress, I think it's darling!

Pssttt...if my secret buddy is reading this post...I love these dresses : )

Wow - I love all of her creations! They are awesome and so reasonable! I swore I was not buying any more for baby M and I think our SP exchange is on hold for my Yahoo group but I think I may just have to buy a little something :) This just cheered me up - thanks for sharing!

Truly Blessed said...

I love the Kimberley dress! Just might have to get TWO of those!

Hope 2008 is a great one for you!

Rachael said...

Very cute. But, won't your secret buddy know who you are now? or does she not read your blog? Oh wait, more people order the "Kimberley"...throws them off? is that your game?

Verna said...

Wow Kim, a dress named for you. That Robin is fantastic. Such cute stuff. I asked for some boy stuff but not knowing Noah's size puts a crimp in it. Somehow I suspect to see something cute show up soon. :)

LaLa said...

Oh my gosh..I love them all...hint hint SB...LOL

aren't you something with your own special dress : )

Nikki said...

I have been away for so long...just getting caught up with you!
Happy New Year, my friend!
I love Robin's stuff - she is VERY talented, and the Kimberley dress is adorable! How cool!

Loved the snowmen that your hubby and Eli made...to cute.
Hope your 2008 is off to a good start!

Those dresses are too cute for words.

Heather said...

Oh my goodness, could those dresses get any cuter??? Thanks for the heads-up! I wish while the wait went on I had had secret buddies and whiled the time away with others who understood...I think you all rock to support and encourage each other daily. Even those of us who have brought our sweethearts home will not rest til all of our babies are home with their families...forever!

Hugs to you
Heather

Isn't that awful..

Thanks for thinking of me today..
Hugs to you girly..
Wish I was there so we could go out for dinner and movie..

Kim said...

YEAH ... does that mean it is named after me too..
LOL..
I think all the SB should order then we will not know who is who..
But at least ours won't.. because we are buying for them...
I don't want to know who my GREAT SB is..But if they order me one.. I would like it in 2T so I know Isabella can wear it..

Carol said...

Oh wow....I know this baby.....small world..........

I ordered a scarf from Robin. The work is beautiful, clean, and detailed. I highly recommend her! Jing Jing is wearing the scarf on my post for today. She is in a pink coat and hat.

Alyson and Ford said...

I will check out her products too. So very affordable.

I love that first dress. I may just have to have it. Gorgeous!

Mr.Brian said...

I say if Crazy Lady does not let you play Norm, the rest of us go on strike.Just because she "claims" to be under the weather is no reason for her to not let you have your dream of playing Norm.
It is time we stand up and let her know she is not the only one who can be assertive.
Now let's let Steffie tell her.She (Crazy Chick) scares me.
Good luck!!!

Lori said...

Thanks for posting this, these dresses are just beautiful! I love the flower one! I placed an order for a friend and can't wait to see it in person!
Their daughter Hope is so beautiful and I can't wait until they have her in their arms, this was a great idea!
