I was so excited when I got home today from running errands to find your box had arrived. What an absolutely beautiful creation. I have never seen an egg carton like that before,,,but you did such a lovely job decorating it. My children just ooh and ahh over it when they got home from school and proclaimed you the best button selector ever.
We are just crazy about butterflies here. In-fact my daughter Lily had a butterfly Birthday last month and her cake was covered with edible butterflies ,so the beautiful butterfly was the perfect touch. Thank you so much for the time and effort you spent in making such a beautiful treasure for me.

Thank you for you note too. I wish I was shoveling the snow with you. My only compensation is the warm weather here has my daffodils blooming. Oh I do love flowers.

I received the most beautiful button box! What a keeper, I did take pictures but my computer totally crashed so is not usable. It is pink with lace wrapped around it and had sets of buttons that were beautiful and chocolate candys. and each button was wrapped in a quote. How neat and thanks so much.
hugs for you

Thank you for your patience & sorry I was quite busy at my end but now that Friday is here I want to post a picture of the beautiful egg carton & bling bling buttons from SuzanneH.

Picture doesn't justify what I am trying to show but giving it a shot.


If the picture is too small tell me and I will make it bigger. I love it!!
