Comment: Wow Julie! It was such a pleasure to receive your package! I absolutely loved everything. It was weird, but I have a similar bird figurine that is the same size of a canary. A distant aunt gave it to me, because it had belonged to my great grandmother. I think that little bird was meant to be mine! I loved the little button flowers, pins and the box and atc are just adorable!!!!

Comment: Julie, thanks so much for the gorgeous buttons! My favorite is either the little green one with the "details" or the 30s one which is yellow and black. The Mickey one is whimsical, too. Very special package, with a book recommendation, as well. Our library has the one you're looking for (in large print). You could try to get it on Interlibrary Loan from your local library. It may be available from another library in your state! Take good care, Susan

 

Comment: Oh HOW beautiful! The bird is STUNNING. So, so pretty! The calligraphy on the envelope was so exciting, I couldn't wait to open it. What a gorgeous preview of the beauty to come! And thanks so much for the stickers and beads-my favorite things from my favorite holiday . I wish I could give you a million hearts!

Comment: my sparkly little bird arrived yeaterday!! thank you julie! he is so cute & the letter that accompanied him was so sweet... thank you again! and love to all your 'babies' ;) xo- katey b

Comment: Thanks for the bird--cleverly done! And thanks for asking about the bees; all the hives seem to be doing fine these days (knock on wood) as they pack in their honey for the winter. And there will be another cento swap in the autumn, I think, so maybe you'll give it a try then? (It was fun and low-stress and yielded very interesting results, I thought.) In any case, all the best and thanks again for the bird and thoughtful note!

Comment: I had a lot of fun going through everything you sent. It was really great! I love the added touch of the map search from my house to yours. I will definitely have to try and visit your town someday. I want to make a trip to that area at some point, and it sounds like a great stop! My two year old daughter scooped up the colouring books. I think she lovse swapping, too!
