Maddie Here is a picture of my gift from you. The firecracker is darling, I love it. I got a pretty red bucket to display, 2 really cute patriotic bracelets, yummy tootsie rolls, one of my girls will devour. Wonderful patriotic pin and lanyard, The cutest little ATC along with a patriotic little hat that holds the ATC. Last but not least a card to get to know a little about you. Thank you so much it is all just fantastic and fun.

This is the little display that I made outside in the Foyer of My Apartment.
I made most of the things. I love the 4th of July and all things Patriotic.
Patsy...I am almost finished with your Firecracker. I had fun making it. Just need a few more things to stuff into it...and then will mail it out by the 24th or 25th of the month.
Hugs, Peggy

Connie, Thank you so much! Your wonderful package arrived yesterday! I couldn't believe all you had packed into it. The darling patriotic rooster hand towel, popcorn, specialty teas, holiday mints, flag and even a flag fan that will keep me cool during the day's events. What a darling little miniature straw hat with 4th of July decorations on it and your firecracker itself was decorated so pretty with the vintage star paper and sparkly red sequins. Thanks again for being my partner and for putting together such a special package! 
What I make with my hands, I give with my heart .... |

Beth...aren't the thrift stores the very best. I just love them. I too have my 4th all up and just love it all.
Maddie..the stone I received from another farmgirl trade or barter, I really liked it but do not wear much jewelry . I am not really sure what stone it is but really pretty and hoped you could use it or pass it to someone who can.

Wow Patsy...I love, love, love Everything you sent me. Such thoughtful gifts and of coarse all kinds of Mail Art type stuff that I can use. Your Firecracker was so adorable and after I emptied it of all if it's little surprises...I put it back together and am using it on my dining room table with other 4th of July Farmgirl Stuff I have received. I particularly loved your 4th of July ATC that you made. That was very Special. I hope you enjoy your package also, when it arrives.
Hugs and Thanks, Peggy

Dear Peggy, I received your fabulous firecracker today. So unique. Did you make it? Lots of goodies came tumbling out when I opened the top of the firecracker. The yoyos,the flag, candies, pencil and notepad, cute card, and all kinds of 4th of July fun. I love the jeweled flag pin and the bandana. And I love love the book bag tote from Barnes and Nobles.We are going on vacation in a couple of weeks to Ruidosa, NM. I am going to use it to put my IPad, camera, journal and books into. Butterflies are my favorite icon to use in swaps. You certainly hit the jackpot for me. Thanks you so much again. Hugs.jpg) .jpg)

Hi Patsy...I am glad you got the pkg already! Yahoo!! Yes, I did make the Firecracker just for you (designed it myself) and the hanging stars. I couldn't get all that stuff into a Paper Towel roll...so just got creative. But it will last you years!!! Even the card was a Vintage Postcard that I made into a card. Thought the little couple were so cut. Looked like they were headed off to watch a Fireworks display somewhere. LOL Be sure and iron your flag or straighten it out with a curling iron. ~Happy Fourth of July!~
hugs,
peggy
HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY FRIEND!!!
