I got my mail art Danielle from TN! THANK YOU!!! I actually got it Tuesday I think, but we didn't know it was left at the door until yesterday. I LOVE IT! As you can see, I have already hung it in my kitchen (pics below) over the french doors that go to our eating area. It came in a cute little tin and when I opened the tin there it was with each circle stacked on one another & was backwards. So I get it all pulled out and I'm thinking what the blazes does this say when I finally laid it down and saw FARMGIRL! I took the ribbon you wrapped it in and cut it in half, knotted it to each end, and it fits over the door! So it has a permenant place now except at Christmas when I hang vintage Christmas ornaments there! :) Thank you for the card too! I love learning about each and everyone of you. Ok, I know, stop talking and show you the pics!

Hi Peggy Thank you so very much for the mail art it is sooooo pretty, I love it so much I have it on my porch near a spot where I sit and read about gardening. I loved the lavender seeds also , I did not have any lavender growing in my herb garden and now I will I love the vanilla tea, tonight before bed I will have my tea while reading. And the book mark will be used in my gardening book that I am reading now. Your mail art was not just beautiful but original and thoughtfull. Thank you so very much you made my week.

Hi Tina...I am so glad that you liked it. These are just a couple other pictures that I took of the Mail-Art before I sent it. You displayed everything beautifully all in one picture, however. Hope you enjoy it all. I enjoyed making it for you.
Blessings, ~peggy

Thank you Jill for the adorable bunny pin and really cute Easter banner I received yesterday. I love it. I will try to post it as soon as possible. I have had trouble in the past so I will hopefully be lucky this time. It was such a thrill getting the package!
Thanks again. Happy Easter to you.
Hugs, Nancy

Thank you Jill so much for posting the picture of your beautiful mail art. I have it hanging in my living room for everyone to see as they enter. I wore the pin yesterday and got so many lovely comments on how cute it is.
