What beautiful collections - and no doubt will make for some beautiful gifts. Thank you for the offerings.

And quirky old post-offices are also on my list of 'favorite' things, though I have to travel to see them. Still there is just something about sending/receiving snail mail that I hope never goes away.

Best to you, dear friend. 🌲 🌸 💖

What a fabulous idea!! I've just been going through some of your previous posts and coming across some of the photos that I really loved. And now I find that it's almost too hard to choose!

I will narrow it down and get back to you.

Some of my favorites are the water photos, the river and streams, the lily pad with 3 pads, and the orange pink sky. Anyway, I have more browsing to do. Later. XOX

I want to put together a water set and a forest set and a rockhound set, etc. etc. But I would love to put together a special pack for you, Ronnie. Thank you for reading! XOXO

Thank you, Barbara! I would love that, but I should have asked you first, rather than jumping right into putting a pack together. All those sets you mentioned above sound great. I will send you an email and be more specific. Thanks for this reply, and best of luck with this endeavor. It's a winner! xoxo

Thank you, Jamie! I used to frequent vintage boutiques all the time when I lived in NYC. Detroit, too! Your broach has a special place on my dresser.

Love you, my friend. So so much! You have been The Quaking Poplar's (AKA my) biggest supporter, and I so appreciate you. 💗💗💗

Love your post offices and postal boxes, Barbara! And I was just thinking to tell you how grateful I am multiple times in a day, when I massage a drop of your forest oil onto my hands and breathe in the forest! Also I gifted Mary with The Color of Hope, in a package with some rose geranium body butter, vanilla lip balm and anthroposophic salt. It was the perfect re-gifting to the perfect recipient!

Thank you, Tereza! I was thinking that younger generations probably NEVER go to the post office and will think this a bit odd. Also, mailing cards seems antiquated these days, now that there's email and texting. Interesting to be an elder and witness so many changes.

I'm so happy you're enjoying the Forest Oil. I love to do that, too - esp. before meditation and bedtime. Only I slather it on. :) 🌲🌲🌲

I forgot that I sent you that card. Glad it made its way to our friend, Mary. And rose geranium body butter sounds divine! XOXO
