I found a poster of the Imagination exhibit some years ago at the Kennedy Center that Maurice Sendak did so I'm sending that to them along with two copies of Where the Wild Things Are...and a nightlight covered with the print from the inside cover of the book. Guess I need to find a puppet.Susie Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663241365525328953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373492091382931118.post-81872547808925579142009-06-08T17:38:54.395-07:002009-06-08T17:38:54.395-07:00Oh I love those bookmarks!!

I even thought of you as I was out at garage sales on Saturday chatting with people and seeing some dogs. I really like how you tell us about the whole experience. <br /><br />Yea for starting the day out with a bagel! Yum! I saw a vintage scale this weekend too. It was a hanging one and was $10. I didn't think it was a bad price but also didn't have a compulsion to buy it. Was yours $1?!<br /><br />That's really interesting about the guy with the candles. Neat idea. Did he have all one color or lots of colors?<br /><br />The girls in my Bible study and I did a sock exchange at Christmas to be able to do a gift exchange but make it something people could actually use. Everyone wears socks, right? We had so much fun we did a scarf swap in January!<br /><br />The tv shelf is hilarioius! :) Quite inventive. <br /><br />I am soo glad that lady kept the embroidery. <br /><br />What GREAT puppets. Those librarians are blessed to have you looking out for them. Puppets are not cheap. I see some at our music teachers' convention every year and they're so neat but so expensive. <br /><br />I really like the candle holders too for the yard and yea for the free stuff! I had to do my own manuevering to get a big wicker chair home with me this weekend. :) Where there's a will there's a way, right? Have a happy Monday!

I don't buy pringles or any chips really for that matter, but back in college I LOVED them! And two, there's so many things to do with melted down candles! I don't need to buy any because I have so many already around the house, but last week I made some firestarters. <a href="http://sewing-chick.blogspot.com/2009/06/egg-carton-scriptures.html" rel="nofollow">Here's the post</a> in case you want to check them out :)Sewing-Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13282532221695943114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373492091382931118.post-90497624327430076852009-06-08T06:00:55.179-07:002009-06-08T06:00:55.179-07:00Thanks for sharing your great finds, and wonderful...Thanks for sharing your great finds, and wonderful stories.

I went to a sale last week and got a child sized quilt (newer made) of the Aunt Grace fabrics that I love, and got a neat clipping of a white geranium (zonal I think) with a pale pink edging. Owner of the house didn't even know that you can propagate geraniums by just putting them in the ground.<br />Hope you can come to soft boiled grand opening on Monday! place looks good!canngilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12681196130939405418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373492091382931118.post-56527686329269727352009-06-06T19:14:30.534-07:002009-06-06T19:14:30.534-07:00Great job as usual!
