UPDATE: february obf: kiss (keep it simple and sweet) swap
Comments (69)My Feb. box from Em arrived today. As you will remember, I was MIA last month when it was time to send so she and I agreed that she should wait. Wellllll....EM, I am THRILLED with what you sent. Even before I opened it, the box smelled WONderful. When I actually opened it, the heavenly scents just wafted out. But first I pulled out the pkg. that was taped in newspaper. I could peek in 1 end, and when I did I was saying out loud, "oh my, is it really, is it really?" then I opened it and saw I was correct. Em sent 3 Brug cuttings!!!!!! I LOVE them and have wanted some for such a long time. I will have to take time and look up the pics for: Tequila Sunrise, U-Conn Treasure, and Frosty Pink. You must grow these? Thank you EVER so much. Now what smelled soooo good were: Yankee Candle tarts- Home Sweet Home, Island Spa, Autumn Leaves, Garden Sweet Pea, and Kiwi Berries. The other item that smelled so good are Lavender/Vanilla soap petals. You know, I have sent these to others before, but I have never tried them myself. This will be fun and so relaxing in our spa tub. Em also sent a "paint pen" to mark my labels, Valentine chocolates, seeds-mixed Barlow columbine, numerous viola mixes, LOTS of petunia mixes, streaked hosta seedling mix, hosta Fascination, hosta Thunderbolt, hosta First Frost, hosta Christmas Tree, hosta Great Lakes Gold, hosta Blue Belle, and Brug peachy/yellow. Em, I have never tried hostas or brugs from seed so I am anxious to see how they turn out. The hosta seeds are new varieties to me, too. WooHoo! Along with the seeds, Em sent a 10 peat pellet greenhouse. Perfect to try these seeds in this. Also, received CUTE butterfly-shaped sparkly notecards AND ladybug stickers. Em, I am just so excited and thankful for all that you thought of and for the lovely card. I smiled when I saw it addressed to 'ME." :D Thank you again and again.

Comments (173)Annie I received your e-mail. Glad you received the prizes and valentine gift. Love all the fairy packages. Rita I received your box today and loved it all. The post office is so rough on packages the cute little fairy arrived broken along with the heart box. Rita you sent so much, two boxes of candy (Yum), valentine card, two precious bear valentine figurines, angel figurine, valentine pencil-pencil sharpener-eraser and note pad. Thank you so much. Sheri-Sorry to read your Birthday gift was missing from the card...I found some black sharpie retractable markers and included one for plant labeling. If I find them again I will send you another. Melinda did receive hers so that one was still intact. Here is the message I received from Melinda via facebook. Dear Shirley, Thank you so much for the beautiful card and new marker pen! So needed that! I am trying to get on the new GW and have tried for days! Don't know if it is my computer or what, but can't sign it, can't connect with FB or anything. I may have to make a new Yahoo account and everything to make a new sign in, not sure. But it is extremely frustrating! Could you please say Thank you to all the ladies...See MoreUPDATE: obf february fairy theme valentines trade
Comments (125)Woo hoo, received my box from Nikki yesterday and the post office was kind and didn't break anything. She sent two pretty glittery fairies resting their heads on mushrooms, a Valentine shelf sitting monkey, a yummy candy bar, tulip bulbs, a little gift book and several packs of coneflower seeds. I can't wait for spring so I can get those started. This may even be the motivation to get out my grow lights and get started now. Thank you Nikki.

Comments (91)Susan wow that was quick the PO told me you would get it Thursday. I ordered the green hellebore a couple of years ago because I wanted all the colors they come in. I was praying it was dividable when I saw you like green and bingo it was. Sorry I am just now posting that I received your pkg but this Queen of the Gardens is down. I have worked so many hours in the downtown gardens I hurt my back and have been in a lot of pain. Went to the Dr. today and they gave me a shot IN MY LOWER BACK gosh that hurt. He told me no gardening for 3 days. We only need 1 more day and all the weeding and mulching would have been done. Oh well it is what it is. Anyway I love my pkg, Wow you really know how to pack a swap pkg. Plant Labels ( My favorite ones and I needed these) Garden gloves Card Cutest towel ever (QUEEN OF DAMN NEAR EVERYTHING) Love it You're a gem notebook Seeds - Nasturtium 'Alaska Red Shades', Marigold 'Queen Sophia', Sunflower 'Lemon Queen', Heliopsis 'Sunburst', Sunflower 'Velvet Queen', Kohlrabi 'Early Purple Vienna'. Variegated on top of being some great selections. So Happy! And to top all this a Bucket Caddy that holds your hand tools. Love it....See Morebrittneysgran
