Comment: Thanks for sharing your autumn photos. Your grandson amongst the yellow leaves is a lovely photo. What a gorgeous landscape photo at the Artist View Point (aptly named). I love your last line..."I love the colors of the trees and then we get a big wind storm and poof, they are gone." That's how it is here too. Thanks for sharing.
Response: Thanks for the heart! Heading up to Olympics National park next week. Hoping for some fall foliages.

Comment: Hello Lauri ! I received your swap today and thanks so much for it. Loved your nice note, the two yummy sounding teas of Cinnamon Vanilla & Mint Fields ( I love those flavors ), and The fruits of Victory PC, with PC stamp. Why? So nice of you to do that though. Also, Thanks for the picture of the sunset from Blaine, WA. Very beautiful setting indeed! I love it! Like you, I love a good Sunrise! Even though Sunsets are beautiful, I don't like when the sun goes does and the day has ended. You mentioned to me, you are also an Aquarian and love water too! How cool is that! I just read your profile and see we share the same birth day as well. Mine is February 5th too. Only I was born in 1961. You? 😦 Oh well, Can't choose when you were born, ha!
Response: Thank you for rating. I just thought the postcard was kinda neat and you are a farmer. Yes, the day has ended oh but what adventures await at sunrise! I was born in 57

Comment: Dear Lauri, thank you so, so very much for this wonderful swap! ^-^ I loved to read the booklet (which might have been confusing for the German postal system, so it took longer to arrive with me than usual XD) and the goodies. I like to live in Dresden, as it's full mith old buildings and museums and you can just sit in a cafe and look around, to by busy for ages. When I want to go hiking, I'm very fast in the Saxon Switzerland, which is a nice area and when your husband and you have the time, when visiting Germany, I can recommand a day tour there. And I simply love bookd stores! The feeling of an book, the smells everywhere... especially secand hand book stores are just magical! ^-^ Have a wonderful spring! Yours, Maxi
Response: Thank you for the rating . Here in Maui, Hawaii and hope to find some bookstores…

Comment: Thank you so much for sharing your Christmas pictures! I really enjoyed looking at them and reading your comments about your Christmas. I think your decorated brown paper bags are great -- hopefully you've kept some of them to use again. A few years ago I sewed drawstring bags out of Christmas fabric and we use those each year to wrap the presents in and then fold them up, ready to use again next year. We all cherish being able to use the special decorations over and over (like your mom's beautiful crystals!) -- why not do the same with gift wrapping? Much friendlier to the environment and bags are actually much easier to use than rolls of wrapping paper and tape! Have a lovely 2024.
Response: The material bag is a great idea, My girlfriend did that and I hope I can remember next year. Why Christmas, how about birthdays too! I love not having to tape. Although I love making dancing wraps on books! Thanks for the heart. May have started a new tradition

Comment: Thank you for your notecard. We are going back to the Big Island next November, it will be the kids' first trip but our second. We were torn between Kauai and Hawaii and decided on the Big Island due to the volcano activity. (It started erupting the day after we left the last time.) I had a plan to go to England in 2020, obviously that fell through and now I think it won't be realized for a while. My maiden name is Frodsham, I've been able to trace it back to the founding of Frodsham village in Cheshire, I really want to see it before I die. I have been a member of postcrossing for many years, it's been a very fun way to see the world. Speaking of pine, I'm allergic to the scent! We have a huge pine tree in our yard that needs trimming (we've been quoted $1000 at the cheapest) and I can't enjoy our yard due to all the pollen in the spring! I hate the darn thing. I loved your artwork on the envelope, thank for sharing your weekend with me.
Response: Oh that sucks about the pine tree. We just spent 400.00 getting ours trimmed . We were in the island during the eruption. We got to go to the rim but only see the smoke. No lava. The visitors center was closed . I hope you get to go to England, I have our trip all mapped out. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Hi Winston, My sister Lola is in one of her moods and she asked me to thank you for your wonderful letter and photos. I am an 11 year old chihuahua named Nemo but my mom calls me Lil Fella or Porkchop. Happy that mom was standing in the SPCA when my owner came to surrender me cause I also do not play well with big dogs (napoleon complex). She picked me up to give me kisses and when the lady said she could not keep me mom took the leash out of the womans hand and brought me home. I do not mind my brothers and sister but those 2 cats are a menace. Great pictures and glad you were able to go on the road trip. Sorry that you will not be able to go to Hawaii but maybe you can use that as a way to get extra treats. Gotto go Winston. Mom is calling me so we can go for a walk. Nemo
Response: Well I am sure Lola had her reasons!!!! Probably those cats!!! I just got a new haircut today and I am so adorable . I hope you had a good walk .

Comment: Wow Lauri you went above and beyond! I love how you gave me 3 perspectives of the falls--a photograph with you in it, a mini photo of the falls, and a notecard. I'm jealous, you are 3 years older than me and you look instagrammable. Congrats on doing 3 miles in the cold and snow. An unforgettable way to challenge yourself on a special birthday. It was worth it for those beautiful shots. I like your extra little note wrapped in waxed thread. An excellent gift for me. I've made handmade mini books but never used waxed thread. This is going to make me feel like a pro. :D I've started watching your list of book makers starting with Ali Manning. Thanks so much for the recommendations. P.S. Also checked the falls on google. My favourite thing to do is check out the 360D photos. :) P.P.S. The handpainted envelope is so pretty.
Response: Well thank you so much for your kind words. Ali has a class this Monday! I am so glad you liked everything. I will check out the 360D photos

But thank you more for your lovely letter, which was fun and enlightening (we live in a Ponderosa pine forest but my husband does not think we should make tea from the needles...) and interesting to read. Your vacations sound great and give me hope for travel for us! Such a delightful swap! Thanks!
Response: Thank you. Like I said, ya gotta know what pine needles to drink. I have really gotten to enjoy my batch. It’s clear to drink but I add honey.

Comment: Hi Lauri, much appreciated for the 2+ page letter that you recently sent me lol. And yes! I received your postcard that you sent from Hawaii! I'm so jealous you got to go to Hawaii, but again it sounds like hell right now to go to the airport with the whole COVID test thing, how was your result? I've lived on Oahu for many years, but never visited the Big Island. I've never been to Spencer Beach, but if you ever visit Oahu, I recommend visiting Laniakea Beach. As I'm writing this, I actually googled "foot on the swing" that you mentioned in your letter. Funnily, it's called a "footrest hammock", thank you for this item suggestion, you have no idea how often my legs get numb when flying, might try this once I travel again. Lovely decorated fishy mail art envelope too! Take care!
Response: Glad it made it to you. The footrest is a game changer. Test were all negative. I am ready to go back. Kauai opens up in April but same routine...

We were there 4 years ago for our 40th Anniversary and I want to go back next year for our 45th. We stayed in Waikiki but did go on a volcano tour, first was a helicopter ride over the volcanoes, then a ground tour. It was a lot of fun. You have been busy since you retired and that's what you should be doing. Our snow didn't last long but now it's been raining hard for 24 hours. Gotta love the PNW in the winter. NOT! Good luck on the destashing!
Response: Thank you for the heart! Sold over $125.00 so I. Am on a roll. Try the big island or Kauai next time! Ok, maybe Maui. So many island so much time!!!

We visited the volcano park when I was there, but I was so bothered by the air, that I had to stay in the car after the first couple of stops. Coughed for months after.

Enjoy your trip to Hawaii! I'm so happy that you get to go! And your huge road trip you took sounds like it was super. Thank you so much for the wonderful letter! PS. my daughter is a park ranger at Zion and there is some snow right now, not tons. We are having a really dry year. Bryce sits higher so they have a bit more snow. Personally, I think Bryce is so much more beautiful in the snow. I'll message you with a few ideas on Hawaii.
Response: Oh thank you and for the heart. I wonder if they will get more snow by the middle of March? I wanted to be a forest ranger back in 1975 but my counselor said there wasn’t much demand so I didn’t go into it...kick myself now.

Comment: Hello Lauri, Thank you for the letter! I can’t wait to try the teas. The salted caramel looks so good and spicy citrus teas are always tasty! I’ve been quarantined since March. I have very bad asthma and part of my lungs removed so I need to be very careful because I’m at high risk and so is my mother of who I am a caretaker for. I’m very lucky that my job allowed me to transfer to work at home. I’ve always wanted to travel and I had two trips planned, one to New York and one to North Carolina and possibly a third trip to Texas to visit but I haven’t been able to. I will eventually get to go, but I’d rather be safe and wait. I will get vaccine if it becomes available to me. I don’t have allergies but my mom does and is immunocompromised so it’s best that the healthy people around her get vaccinated so we’re less likely to spread illness because she can’t get it. The arts lesson thing sound really good. I was thinking of buying a skillshare membership which sounds similar. As if a platform to take different types of classes and they have quite a few on journaling and Art! I’m not very active on Facebook. I do have one but I just use it to talk to my grandma. 😂. Oh I would love to visit Ireland/Scotland. I have a friend in Scotland and I always say I’m going to go visit her as soon as I can save up the money for a trip. Hopefully in a few years. Period pieces are my favorite. I’ve started watching Poldark and it makes me want to visit Cornwall ( those cliffs!) Thank you so much for the post card and the washi tape. I love the designs! Hope you and Kevin and the rest of your family are safe and healthy.
Response: Thank you. enjoy the tea and keep that dream of travel alive! I watched Poldark too.

Comment: Hi Lauri, the ornament you painted so so beautiful! Thank you for this lovely gift :) I like your weekend - I live in a condo, so ordinary things like raking leaves sound pretty interesting to me. I also think this swap gives us a glimpse into what an "ordinary" weekend may be to someone else. It's my 2nd one, and all partners have done things that I find to be quite interesting. I am sorry the Europe trip you've done so much planning for didn't work out this year. I hope you'll have safe trip for the new year, and many more to come. Happy swapping!
Response: I am so happy you liked it. Spent this week cancelling our New Years plan to Kauai. Made a backup one for April. Enjoy these swaps!

In Japan, it rarely snows after the cherry blossoms have bloomed (it snowed in Tokyo this year, but I didn't get to see the cherry blossoms), so I was surprised at the cherry blossoms in the snow you sent me! The camellia are also beautiful. This camellias（TSUBAKI） are called "Otome Tsubaki" in Japan.Otome is an Japanese old word that means "girl". Looking at your bookmark makes me feel like I've been to Hawaii (dream place for Japanese people)!

I teach art part time in an elementary school, and I also do sub art teacher for high school kids. Very different experience. Young kids are not skilled, but their learning attitude is better. High schoolers have better art skills, but their learning attitude is not as good. You know, many high schoolers only want to text their BF or GF instead of doing art. Thank you for sharing your life with me. I think your life is very productive! Gap year and travel sounds like a great idea. It’s good that your kids are all old now, and have grand kids already. The Hawaii bookmarks you painted look very nice!! Thank you again for joining my swap! Hope you have a good year in 2019 ❤︎

Comment: HAHA....I was sitting here opening mail and rating my swaps and as I began reading this letter I thought "wow you sound like the other partner I had?" I just realized you ARE the same partner on two different swaps lol. I LOVE that you included a photo of your board at work- and would love to see it now decorated for Halloween! Thank you for the washi tape!
Response: That is so funny! Don’t think the board will be decorated as I am off work till nov 3 due to my hubbys surgery.

Comment: Oh Lauri your letter was a gem to read thank you sooooo much! I just love a good handwritten letter! We really need to arrange to do a couple private swaps because I can tell already that we 'click!' Perhaps we could even Face time so I could see your craft room because it sounds darling! As for the flavored teas- I grew up in Canada and it used to be that RED ROSE brand had a slogan "ONLY in Canada!" My mom only drank the original Red Rose...and I've never even seen the flavored so I'm excited to try it. Beautiful die cuts thank you so much- I love that you hand watercolored them!
Response: That would be fun. Today, I am cleaning and organizing the room. Do you work during the week? Let’s find a time. I am pretty open except for taking hubby to rehab.

Comment: The room is looking great. We did white with grey accents and carpet. The room hasnt got a lot of light, and this REALLY brightened it up from what it used to be! I love it. I have tried my hand at watercolor recently. I painted a moon and a sea turtle/ocean pieces... and i CAN NOT do them again. I have tried so many times. Just doesn't happen. Thank you so much for the lovely sea view painting. I've hung it over my craft space [that seems to get smaller every time i look too!]
Response: Thank you for thinking my art was worth displaying! I can never reproduce something I did either! Hubby and I were talking about gray for our bedroom highlight with lavender thanks for the heart

My husband and I have a business and he is always working and when he is not working it is because he is taking his mom or grandmother to the doctor. I think as far as I have gone out of Texas is to California and to Florida, Colorado, Kansas, Mexico, but it was all to visit family. Except Florida...we went to Disney World. Hope all goes well with your husband. Thank you.

Comment: I adore the ATC you made and sent to me. I like Audrey Hepburn also. The statement you put on the ATC was that quoted by Audrey Hepburn? I loved the layered look and it definitely wasn't to thick for me. I was mostly talking about things like a paper embellishment that has 2 or 3 little sticky sponge like things that will stick to whatever you're making to give it that 3D look. If I could I'd give you more hearts. God Bless and Happy Swapping........=)
Response: Oh I am so glad you like it. Yes, she said that. It is difinetly a fun ATC

How resourceful of you to use napkins or fast food bags for writing if needed, that's awesome! I actually buy a lot of my stationery from a store on Etsy, it's called La Papierre. They actually mail you stationery, it's lovely quality. And to answer your question, yes, I have left Alaska on vacation multiple times, although I haven't been on one since 2014 so I think I'm about due! Again, thank you for the goodies and happy swapping! :)

Comment: Hello and thank you for the Washington Monument postcard. I went to DC in 1988 (I was 17 years old) for three days with my Grandma and it was an amazing trip. We went to the top of this Monument and could see all around, although it was difficult through the smog (it was July and not only 95 degrees out - but 90% humidity; I would recommend NOT going in the summer time!). I hope you are having a great trip!
Response: I use to visit my grandparents who lived near by in Virginia. I all to well remember those lazy summer afternoons and humidity

Comment: Hi Lauri. Thank you so much for a wonderful letter and pictures enclosed. I just got home late last night and sitting this morning, finally relaxing with a cup of coffee, it was so nice to open your letter. I will be writing back. With the holidays here, not sure when i will have a moment but between cookie baking, child-sitting, and sending out cards, I will take some pictures and send a little surprise your way. LOVE your rain gear with the washi tape "patches" and decorations on it (a work photo you sent me) and your wedding dress is gorgeous!!! May you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

The squirrel at the feeder is a familiar sight though... Lol! I was impressed by the nice clean desktop, but I was more encouraged by the other desk photo, with things piles on top of each other and that beautiful chaotic look that creativity always causes when I'm crafting! And I have to comment on the envelope: love-love-loved the extra care you put into it! Beautiful! PS - Nice lab coat!

I love everything about it and the fact that you took time to write a letter, it was so great to read. We have stellar jays as well and they are messy, but believe me that squirrel he's going to eat you out of house and home - it'll be like having a male teenager and his friends coming over to visit 😀😀. I love the bookmark and the fact that you took pictures of the Netherlands to put on it. Going to enjoy the hot chocolate. I could go on and on, but know your envelope and time that you put into it made a difference in my day and will make tomorrow brighter. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Comment: Thanks for the nice card. My family is from around Sayre, the county seat of Beckham county (Elk City is the largest town in the county). My grandparents' all grew up together out there. My part of Oklahoma is wooded. As for the card itself, while we have jet skiing & the like on lakes, rivers do tend to be a bit lazier. The Illinois is great for a leisurely float, but nothing so exciting as wind surfing for sure.

Comment: I typically have two boxes on my desk: incoming and out going mail. I go through incoming every three days and register everything. As for sending out, I typically do two big sendouts a week and will knock out every paired swap that day if possible. succulents are pretty forgiving about watering. Is there a whole in the bottom of the pail? when in doubt I water my succulents about once a week.
Response: Fantastic advice thank you!
