Happy Wednesday!! My package arrived from Melody late yesterday afternoon. :) I think when I opened it a CRAFTY EXPLOSION happened, lol! Melody, your package was so thoughtful and so decorated! Every little piece was perfect! In my awesome package was: ~Stickers for the kids. Mrs. Grossman's! I use these stickers all the time for scrapbooking, and the company is right around the corner from Melody! Small world! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THINKING OF THEM! :) ~An AMAZING hand made envelope. So pretty! And a letter inside explaining my contents along with a beautiful drawing of 3 of the flowers that Melody sent me seeds for. SO PRETTY! I'm going to trim it down, mat it and frame it! It's just perfect! :) ~So many seeds! All with red~white~blue seed baggies. Very cute! Amaranth: Burgundy Prairie Aster: Blue Tanaka Daisy Poppy: Mysterious Red California Poppy: White Linen Morning Glory: Heavenly Blue Guara: White Butterfly Bunny Tails Grass ~My recipe looks so yummy I think I'm going to make them this weekend. Fresh Lemony Potato Pancakes with Carrots and Rosemary.....YUM! :D ~A post card of a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge. It's celebrating its 75th anniv. this week :) ~Velcro Plant Ties (Believe it or not, I just ran out of these and was going to pick some up on Saturday! I've never used this kind before, but it seems to be softer and has more stretch than the one I normally use. THANK YOU!) ~And last but certainly not least the cutest hand made pin wheel! Melody this pin-wheel is the answer to a problem that my Girl Scout troop was having! We are having a Pincess Dance in the late fall and were trying to figure out a economical craft to make corsages with. Not only does it have to be economical, but the girls have to be able to make it. Which leaves out hot glue guns and more regular craft things. This pin-wheel with the wire can be used as a wrist corsage OR as a boutonniere for the dads...SUPER SIMPLE AND EASY!!!! The girls can decorate them any way they want! LOVE IT! HUGE THANK YOU! ~OH! and lest I forget the amazing package of Ghirardelli chocolates! I am in love with the midnight chocolate...so yummy! Melody, you went above and beyond for my box! I can't thank you enough for your thoughtfulness! :) MAY'ED' IN THE USA PARTNERS: flowergirl34 (vina) sends to sandlapper_rose (jeanne)***SENT*** REC'D*** sandlapper_rose (jeanne) sends to veeja11 (carol)***SENT***REC'D*** margaret_2007 (margaret) sends to Astroknot (melody)***SENT***REC'D*** brittneysgran (shirley) sends to canyonwind (annie) veeja11 (carol) sends to brittneysgran (shirley) ***SENT*** Astroknot (melody) sends to flowergirl34 (vina)***SENT*** REC'D*** canyonwind (annie) sends to margaret_2007 (margaret)***SENT*** Jeanne, your super prize will be going out on Friday :) I hope you likey.
