I am glad you got your box and loved the windchimes. See I told you I could not tell which one I mailed cause someone might guess whose name I had. Hope you enjoy it all. I just love to spoil people with goodies I think they can use and enjoy. Enjoy girl friend.

Windchime Boxes

http://www.gardenhere.com/content/Penny2638s-Trade-List
Thanks so much GrannyRose!!!!
I got my box today from Grannyrose and it was full of goodies!!!
I now finally have a Garden Gnome! My 3 year old just loves him! (Any package I get by mail, the kids seem to think belongs to them too, especially when its gardening stuff!)...
I got 5 really pretty windchimes: Glass Cardinal with bell, ceramic D'fly with B'flies (my favorite one!!!), Green B'flies chime, glass suncatcher with D'fly - resembles stained glass (another favorite!!), and Blue Hummingbird chime. GrannyR also sent a nice H'bird feeder with nectar, cute garden stake, gloves, fertilizer spikes, pruners (I really needed these, mine recently wore out & broke), and an adorable garden flag with a kitty & watering can on it (my first flag !).
Thanks GrannyR -I just love all the goodies you sent me! Our little yard will now be the prettiest one on our street! The boys say 'thank you' also-they especially like all of the 'Ding-Dings' (windchimes), and the 'Roaming Gnome' (LOL...they watch too many TV commercials)

Annette, you don't owe me an apology. There was no rule or anything like that about adding anything to the box besides the wind chime. We weren't SUPPOSED to make a gift box, it's just that some of us can't seem to NOT add extra goodies to send to our dear friends here on GH! So PLEASE don't feel bad!! I absolutely LOVE the wind chime that you sent to me!! There is nothing to forgive, I don't want you to feel bad at all my friend. You done good!!! :)
Love you my dear, sweet friend

Dizzy I can’t bear to
Dizzy I can’t bear to put it outside we have such awful winds down here that it will be MUCH safer in the house. I just love it and don’t want anything to happen to my new treasure.
I have always wanted a Sorbet they are just so beautiful what a great addition (the queen of peonies has arrived) to my peony garden. I just started to grow peonies ( white, pink, dark pink, red) last year and they are going great guns they must like the soil or something.
Thanks
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most!!

Glad you like it!
Coco, silly it's supposed to go outside! You put it where it makes you happy though. I just loved that one, the combination of copper and stained glass was just too much to pass up. Wasn't sure you would put it outside, so that's why I included the red cardinal too. LOL!!
That sorbet peony is one of THE most fragrant!! Get it if you can find one girls, cause I had only ONE bloom on mine last year (just getting established), but the fragrance was DIVINE!!!
And everyone needs a new gnome to add to their garden each year, right?
I hope you get lots of enjoyment from these little gifts Dawn. And next time you make your way over here, be sure to give me a shout!

Oh My Gosh DIZZY
I got my chime package from you today. I could not believe my eyes. Not only was there the most gorgeous Hummingbird wind chime, which BTW will never go outside in the high desert wind , it has a special place in my dining room where the sun can shine through it and it can be more beautiful. The darling cardinal chime is hanging from the same window.
With everything else that came in the box I officially have all I need to work in my yard.
Sunglasses, sunscreen, marking pens, plant markers, citronella candles, bug off towelettes, rubber stamps, cute flower stickers, seeds (including lavender poppies), a feeder for my hummers, magic soil, the coolest mini multi tool, the sweetest gnome to watch over everything, NOT to mention the SORBET PEONY and The Dahlia.
Dizzy I know where you live and I can’t believe that there is anything left in town, OR did you buy them out of everything???
You have made this so much fun..
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU
