Oh my goodness Sweet Jean you have blown me away with all the Beautiful gifts in my Letter Box, I love it all! You sent things I never thought of but you did! The Beautiful Purple Feather Pin and other Calligraphy items are just Amazing! Can not wait to watch The Postman Always Rings Twice, and read the boo Kindest Regards. And use the beautiful stationary and all the rest.
Thank you so much My Friend I will treasure my box full of gifts. What beautiful letters I can now send. You box will be coming soon.
Thank you again Laura for hosting such a fabulous swap.

Big Hugs,
Debbie

But, but, Debbie the movie is just "The Postman" with Kevin Costner . . . . the one who always rang twice was from the '40s with John Garfield. Yep. I'm THAT old, so I remember that one too. Glad you liked everything. It was so very much fun to put together.
hugs,

Thank you Rea, for the lovely assortment of writing papers and notecards! I will definitely be putting them to good use, both for our badge and beyond. The pens, notebook, and stickers will be useful too. Thank you again for being my partner in this swap!

I got your amazing package yesterday. Wow, you outdid yourself. I love love everything. The cards you made are amazing, you dried flowers and dyed the paper to make them. I know how much time you put into them. The fabric is so beautiful, I look forward to making something with it. The pencils, pens, twin, clothespins, extra paper, wood chips, and the altered can. Then you gave me some stamps. Wow, I am in awe, such a wonderful gift. Then candy to top it all off. Thank you thank you so much.

Hay there.

Vanessa, thank you for all the wonderful goodies you sent to me for this swap! Fabulous! I have never had carmel tea before. The cards will be used for my pen pal fun and I do love a good writing pen. I can't wait to read your newspaper and find out whats happening in Ky. Thanks again. I finally got to the post office before it closed so you should be receiving your package soon. Im sorry it is late but they close the post office too early. I had to wait til Saturday to post your package. I hope you enjoy everything. I still can't post a photo via my phone.....operator error, Im sure.

Hugs and prayers, Daizy #1093

I'm so glad you got it!
Here's a suggestion to everybody- write a letter to your local newspaper and compliment them on something you read in it. Usually newspapers only hear from readers when there is an error. I know they would appreciate a letter of thanks.

Lots of reasons! They are a resource for genealogical searchers, they feature school children's achievements, they notify the community about upcoming events, they report on local politics, and they promote local businesses. Not everyone can be on every Facebook site!

Oh my goodness - I have a lot to catch up on! I've been out of town with my sister and am just getting back to my computer tonight. I tried my best to stay off-line (except for looking up restaurants and navigating) while I was away.

Looks like a lot has been happening here - such fun to see what you all are receiving. I received some sweet mail from Jean today with 30 reasons to write letters - can't wait to curl up with a cup of tea and read that! Thanks Jean!

And Karen - thank so much for the happy mail supplies - love the stamped envelopes! My neighbor just walked over to deliver our mail and I found your package. Can't wait to put it to good use!

Oh my !! The letter writing Angel left me a package today with the most amazing supplies!! Jenn, you sent me so many wonderful cards and accessories to be able to send lovely mail to many!! Check out what was in the large plastic envelope to keep it all together: packets of writing papers/matching envelope. Felt tip pen, bag of cute stickers, assorted plain cards, thank-you cards, Susan Branch apple stickers, pink list pad, and a cute Mary Englebreit card. What I love is that all the cards are plain inside so I can write my own message. The cards are all beautiful!!



This swap was a wonderful idea because we all know that Farmgilr mail is BEST!! Thank-you again, Jenn, for this wonderful collection of things necessary to send real mail to family and friends. I will enjoy using everything!
