Response: I am glad it was received in good time and that you enjoyed it! I think these spirit animal swaps are really wonderful, so I try to make them special so that you can open it and feel like you really can attune to the animals, and not go, "oh look, cat stickers." Haha. Not that there's anything wrong with stickers, but you know what I mean. I have done two of these swaps and both times, my package was very sub par and I just didn't feel the love. So I am really happy that you did. I wasn't sure if you would like some of the items, but I do hope you have fun with them and feel a little closer to your messengers. Blessings. :)

Response: You're very welcome! Enjoy!

Response: You're very welcome friend. I also love teeny things. Multiple altars bring me joy as well. :)

Response: Thank you. :) I appreciate your kind words. And I am happy you like it. :)

Response: I am happy to hear that you enjoy the flag. I enjoyed making it for you. Thank you for rating. <3

Response: You're welcome! I had a lot of fun making it. Thank you for the fun series and for being patient with me. <3

Response: You're welcome! I'm glad it was well received and I hope your intentions resonate as well. Thanks for rating. :) XO

Response: Thank you for the kind rating! I appreciate you explaining what you liked about the flag and letter- it inspires me to keep putting that extra energy in. <3

Response: I'm glad you enjoyed it. I thought you might find it rather silly but I did put a lot of heart into it! Thanks for rating. :)

Response: You're welcome! So I just had the realization that I think I wrote in your card that I sent sage leaves, and I just watered my plant and noticed it isn't missing any leaves. I knew I was forgetting something when I threw it in the mail! I'm sorry about that. :o)

Response: You're welcome! Enjoy!

Response: Thank you for the kind words and rating. I am happy you like it. :) I enjoyed putting it together for you and learning some things myself in the process. Thank you for making such a unique swap.

Response: Wooo! Glad it arrived, I was so worried with the way things have been through the PO. I'm happy to hear you enjoy it so much and like the little things in it. We will have to do some more Sabbat-themed pocket letters in the future. Happy Autumn Equinox. :)

Response: Happy it finally arrived and got sorted out. Glad you liked it. Thanks for rating. :)

Response: You are very welcome! I am pleased to hear how touched you were by it! Thanks for the nice rating and for joining our swaps! ;)

Response: I just discovered it myself last Summer on a hike. I was by a pond in the woods and saw them and picked a few and brought them home. A few weeks later there was a news article in my local paper about the jewelweed and I was so excited to read about it and know I found some on my hike! I go back to that spot every year and get some and make salve! The spotted red (from the newspaper clipping) is what grows near me! I know you don't get any out your way but it's good knowledge! Enjoy and thanks for the rating!

Response: You're welcome! There really are so many beautiful and inspirational things for the sabbats on pinterest. My eye was drawn to all the pretty things! Enjoy the pins!

Response: You're welcome! Glad you like it!

Response: Haha, I agree. I find myself running out of creative ideas for those things and they just keep turning out weirder and weirder.....;)

Response: Hah, it was certainly a game of tetris. It was my first one and I really had fun. I never realized how much making tiny things delights me until I made that thing. Enjoy. :)

Response: Aww thank you for such kind words! I'm glad the flag made it- I'm about fed up with the post office and how long they take to get mail around. But I'm so glad you like it. I have a lot of fun creating those little flags. I hope things are looking up for you and your family. Let me know if you need anything on here!

Response: You're welcome! Thank you for your patience and for the nice rating. I hope you enjoy it! :)

Response: You're welcome! I had so much fun making that silly lil thing. Enjoy and thanks for the rating!

Response: You're welcome! Thank you for the rating. <3

Response: You're welcome. :) I'm happy they gave you the "pick me up" you needed. I really enjoyed making them knowing they were going to a great partner on here. I hope next week at work is better for you!

Response: Aww thanks so much. :) I actually made you a different one first and it came out terribly ugly and unrealistic, so I watched a 2 hour tutorial on how to paint moons LOL. It seems like it helped! I'm happy you like it and am smiling thinking of it being displayed in your home. :)

Response: YW! I'm actually surprised you got it this quick because we had an underground explosion in the downtown area of our city, close to the PO. Apparently they were out of power for 2 days. I had dropped that in the blue box outside the PO on Monday and was never sure if it went out right away or after the power was up. I was preparing to message you if you didn't get it by this weekend. So..yay! Haha.

Response: Thank you so much for this great rating. I am so happy that all of the items touched you. My boyfriend said YW as well for the box. The butterfly card wasn't necessarily sent for the butterflies, it was sent because it is a papyrus card, and the papyrus brand is represented by a hummingbird. I think you can see their little hummingbird symbol on the envie. But it was pretty nonetheless. I hope you find peace with the items and can gain a stronger connection to your animal guides. Thank you again for your patience and kindness. You were a great partner. Blessings. <3

Response: I'm glad it made it overseas safely and you enjoy it. And yes, it took quite a lot of time and effort, and I really enjoyed making it. Thank you for the prompt rating and for the heart.

Response: You're very welcome. I hope it brings you some serenity. Thank you for the quick rating and the heart.

Response: I am SO happy to hear it made it to you and was not lost! I'm also so glad you enjoyed it! I hope you are able to enjoy some of the items in celebration tomorrow for Ostara! I love putting together sabbat packages for people so much. Thank you for the kind words and for the heart! Blessed Ostara to you and I hope to see you in another swap. :)

Response: You're welcome! Thanks so much for the speedy rating and the heart! xo

Response: You're welcome! Glad you liked it! I'm not the best at making ATC's but that one was fun. :) Thanks for the heart!

Response: Thanks for the heart and I'm happy to hear you love lemon. :) Those cookies seriously are delicious. I always make them and during Yule I will make them but with a crescent moon cookie cutter. The ingredients are pretty basic and you shouldn't have a problem finding lemon grass or lemon balm. And I'm not sure if you drink (I don't) but that May wine is really lovely sounding and hopefully you can try it or make it for someone someday. :)

Response: You're welcome,k Mandy! I hope it helps you find some kind of healing as well! Blessings!

Response: You're welcome! I love that deer decoration- I really want to make a similar one for myself lol. So happy you like it all. The celtic salt can be used in cooking or for rituals/on your altar. The herbal supplements I mainly use to make herbal teas and incense. I'm trying to remember all of the ones I sent you...the raspberry leaf is super healthy for you. You can add it, or the other herbs, to similar flavor loose leaf teas or combine it with other ingredients to create your own. Making incense requires a good amount of herbs so you might have to add some to your collection. If you keep them in a jar in a cool, dark place, those herbs will have a good year or more shelf life and still be decently fresh. I would suggest doing a bit of googling on them for your best options. Or you can use them to create sachets. I'll mail you an herb cotton bag with your God info. and if you want, you can use it to add herbs to for cooking, soaking in the tub when bathing, making sachets, etc. Some people use sari fabric for sachets, but cotton bags work great, too. The cinnamon you can grind up with a mortar and pestle (or food processor) and add it to granola, oatmeal, desserts or tea. It's actually super delicious stuff. Let me know if you want me to send you any info. on how to make a sachet, tea or noncombustible incense. I have a ton of recipes for so many variations. You might also be able to find some useful info in the e-mails I sent you. I can't remember what's in all of them, but I think some related to making incense, etc. Thank you for the kind words and rating!

Response: You're welcome. Enjoy the tea! I sent that card because it is your zodiac (I hope)! I love Christian LeCroix paper; he is so funky and creative lol.

Response: You're welcome Kittin! I like those PL's to be more informative than anything. I've put mine right into my BOS and hope that my partners can use mine to reference the elements when needed. I'm glad you like it all and thanks for the heart! Blessings.

Response: Thank you Lynne! I appreciate your kindness! Enjoy the tea. :)

Response: I am so happy you like it, and so happy you understand it. It was A LOT of fun- more than I anticipated. It caused me to retrieve memories I didn't think I would remember, and was all around very therapeutic. Thank you for receiving it well, and for the great rating.

Response: Glad you liked it!

Response: Thanks! Glad you like it! Happy holidays to you!

Response: Thank you so much! I'm happy you like it. :D Enjoy and happy holidays!

Response: It's ok, just happy to know it made it there! Enjoy!

Response: Lol youre welcome! :) I knew you'd like that squirrel, hes so cute. <3

Response: Thank you so much! I hope you had a beautiful Samhain as well!

Response: You're so welcome. :) I'm very happy to hear that it made yours and your Lily's day, and I enjoyed putting it together. Enjoy the items and thank you for the nice rating. :)

Response: That's wonderful to hear. :) Enjoy the socks and thanks for the nice rating!

Response: Whew! So happy you liked everything! Enjoy it and have a wonderful Samhain! Thanks for the rating!

Response: You're welcome! Thank you for the nice rating and enjoy!

Response: You are so welcome! Reading your rating made me smile so much; I'm so glad it made you that happy. I really love sharing things I enjoy with other people who have similar interests, so it was a pleasure putting it together for you. Enjoy! XO

Response: Enjoy! <3

Response: You're welcome! Thanks for joining and for the kind words!

Response: Thank you so much! It was a tough one! Glad you like it all. Thanks for the heart and enjoy! <3

Response: You're welcome. Thank you for the heart. :)

Response: You're very welcome! Enjoy! :)

Response: You're welcome! I'm glad it arrived so quickly. Happy Birthday!

Response: Wooo! You're welcome! Glad you are enjoying the tea! xo

Response: You're welcome.

Response: Aww, thank you for the sweet words. :) I'm glad my mail brought you such joy. I had a feeling you would enjoy more things like poems rather than small crafting bits. I had more in mind for you but the pockets were getting too fat lol. Enjoy, and thank you so much for your rating.

Response: You are very welcome! Just wanted to make you smile outside of the unjust shit that's been raining on you. So glad the shirt fit and you liked the necklace. Makes me happy to know you enjoyed all of it. How about that raspberry licorice?! Sooo. damn. yummy. :)

Response: You are so welcome, Krystal! And yes I definitely recommend reusing envelopes if they are in decent condition. We all know how expensive postage and bubble mailers/box fees can be, so I'm all about reducing my carbon footprint. I'm really happy you love the cards; I was really unsure and was trying based off your profile. If you ever want to find those Christian LeCrouix cards, try looking at Ross or TJ Maxx. I have found some amazing ones by him at both places, for a relatively good price. Enjoy everything!

Response: You're welcome! Enjoy it all! :)

Response: You're welcome. I couldn't believe I found that little music box; it was so fitting for this swap. I hope the soap smells good, too! Enjoy everything. And thank you for the heart. xo

Response: That sounds lovely. :) Glad you are enjoying them. Thank you for the rating and heart!

Response: Thank you for the compliments! I'm glad you appreciate my art. ;) Enjoy and happy swapping!

Response: Thank ya dear. Glad it arrived safely and you enjoyed it all. I enjoyed putting it together for you and I am definitely open to doing another swap with you in the future! XOXO

Response: You're welcome! I enjoyed putting it together for you! Take care and thanks for the heart. ;)

Response: You're welcome. Thank you for the heart. Happy New Year. :)

Response: You're welcome! I'm glad you like it so much!! It was really fun and a pleasure making it for you. Thanks for the kind words and rating. Merry Christmas. :)

Response: No worries, I'm just glad it arrived. Happy holidays. ;)

Response: You're welcome. Merry Christmas. :)

Response: I'm glad you found interest in it! Thank you for the heart, and Merry Christmas to you and yours, too!

Response: Aww you're so very welcome! I thought the gifts were insufficient, so I'm truly glad you like them! I would have sent more if the postage wasn't insane! So glad it brought you so much joy. Love and merry wishes back to you and your sister! XO

Response: Wow, thank you for the kind words! I'm so glad you loved it that much and that it brought you that much happiness! It certainly made my week getting such a kind rating from you! Enjoy the jewelry! :)

Response: :) :) :) Thanks! :) :) :) I had fun making it for you. XO

Response: LOL I read that one wrong! Well 4 kids and 11 grandkids is still an accomplishment! So glad you liked everything. :) Thank you for the heart. Hugs back atcha. ;)

Response: You're welcome! I had fun doing this swap with you! If you ever want to do another swap or write, just let me know! Take care and good luck with school. :)

Response: Hi Amy! I'm glad to see my swap arrived safe and swiftly! I'm also really happy you enjoyed it. I can never just stick to the swap guidelines when I'm swapping for someone I think fondly of on here. I truly enjoyed putting it together for you, and I would absolutely love to continue swapping/pen-paling with you! I think we would have a lot of interesting and cool stories/things to share! It's really nice that you want to extend it, and have offered to reply. PLEASE take your time, though. I know we are all busy, and I'm sure your job keeps you super-busy, on top of having your other swaps and pen-pals to tend to. And I will respond to you when your reply arrives. In the meantime, I'm setting some goodies aside for you. Hehe. :) Thanks for the kind words and nice rating! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Response: I'm glad it finally arrived! I am so sorry that you have to do some substitutes...I thought I read your profile and didn't see any allergies...my fault! It's really yummy; I hope you are able to try it! Take care! :)

Response: You're welcome. I'm glad you got it and might give it a try! Enjoy, and thank you for the kind words and nice rating. :)

Response: You're welcome. I'm happy to hear you might give it a try! Thank you for the heart and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Response: Hi Mallory. :) I'm happy you got my swap and liked everything! I found myself obsessing over it because I wanted to stuff so much into that tiny little swap for you. The pagan dates are from a green witchcraft book I've had since I was about 15. The dates are supposed to be the same for every year (unless for some reason there is an alteration to the actual holiday/festival). To be honest, I haven't practiced or celebrated much of the pagan calendar in a long time myself. I do try to recognize them, though. Sometimes I'll light a candle, etc. Life is too busy these days and I rarely have time to sit down and appreciate those celebrations. I mainly just try to be a good person in general, and I try to follow the Cherokee 10 Commandments (which is basically just common sense and mutual respect for those around you haha). I would love to be your pen-pal. I think you have a swap headed my way. If you want, I can write you after I receive it (which should be soon)...or you can write me before then. Whatever works! Enjoy the nag champa! ;)

Response: Haha! You're welcome! I'm happy it arrived safe and glad you liked everything! You had an exciting profile..and lots in common with me, so it was hard to just send 30 stickers :) Enjoy!

Response: You're welcome. Glad you liked everything. :)

Response: You're welcome, Bridget! I'm glad you got it and liked everything!

Response: Lol, well that makes sense! I'm really glad you liked everything. I tried to send stuff based off your profile. It was actually the first swap I've done, so I don't have a big collection of things yet like a lot of people do. Thank you for the kind words and rating. Enjoy. :)
