Hey Snacker-I went home last night and sitting on my kitchen table were my earrings. My sweetie went through the package for me. They are so awesome! I love them! I wearing a pair right now. I will take pictures tonight. Thank you again!!! You rock!

I got a package from kelsorama today! She sent me some lavender buds AND some adorable eggplant shrinky-dink stitch markers!! how sweet!

Unfortunately she's on vacation but maybe one of you knows--I am afraid that the lavender might have developed mold en route, because it has been in the upper 90's here lately--it has white fuzz all over it. Is that the way lavender looks? I have never actually seen dried lavender before so I have no idea. I am not a bit bothered, the eggplant markers are way too cool for one package, and I'm sure it's the heat--or maybe it's just fine, i have no idea! I just want to know before I use it for anything.

I have a TON of stuff to take pics of for this gallery, I am buying new batteries tomorrow! I got a batch of awesome ribbon from kittykill too. Pics soon!

I grow lavender and dry it in a dehydrator.  Sometimes if it is air dried, it can develop mold--does it look like mold that happens if you leave stuff in your frig too long? ha ha--It should not smell or feel the least bit "wet"--more like dried up rice grains and a nice lt bluish tint

It is hot and humid here too--I have had to wrap anything with paint, decoupage, etc. in wax paper to prevent sticking!!

Leave the lavender out in your garage or somewhere--if it keeps growing, uh, ick, throw it out!  Blame it on the weather--now you have me worried about the dried flowers I am using on notecards...

Mmmm..it is sort of damp and matted together and brown colored. Yeah. I think it went bad. Oh well! I'm happy with my package anyway! Thanks so much alwaysinmyroom..I appreciate your help!

Catpants sent me the most amazing package of summery goodies! She included an awesome picture frame (don't we all just adore rickrack?), a pouch for my sunglasses, two really cute barrettes, a headband that fits perfectly over my thick, unruly hair, a beautiful shell necklace and to top it all off, a Karl sticker! Who could ask for more? I was totally spoiled! Thanks so much, Catpants. You're making me enjoy summer even more!
