I am a councilwoman in Germantown NY. I am retired from my job as Crime Victims Assistance Coordinator for the Attorney General's Office of New York State. More importantly I am the mother of 3 and Grandmother to 8. My children and my grandchildren all had a security blanket. I know how precious Dear Blanky is and wanted to give it the reverence it deserved. It gave me quiet time and it gives my daughters their quiet times. So here it is....preserved for the future.
for girls
Dear Blanky,
You were always my best friend
There to comfort, there to mend.
When boo-boos hurt or feeling blue
I looked to you to see me through
Now as I change from day to day
You'll be with me in a different way
Framed in a picture on my wall
But your job is not done yet
No not at all
Preserved for the future
And on my Wedding Day
you'll be washed and ironed and tucked away
Among the flowers of my Bridal Bouquet.
for boys
And on my Wedding Day
You'll be washed and ironed so you'll still be near
You'll be the stem of my boutonniere.
You will receive a print of my original water color Fairy or Sail Boat, original poem, Easy to follow directions, template you will use for the wings-sails medium to preserve the piece of Dear Blanky that will become the Fairy's Wings or the Boats Sails
Hi. I’m writing to see if you could go to artisanschallenge.blogspot.com and cast your vote for my needlefelted horse “The Ghost” which is in the current challenge. Any support would be greatly appreciated and let me know if I can ever return the favor. Thanks. Ardene
That worked. I think they're such a perfect gift for my daughter in NJ for my grand-daughter and new grand-son that I put one of each on my cart. Once again, a really great idea.
What's a blog? (heh) I couldn't get on to your etsy shop but your idea is great and creative. I have to try and get to your shop again so I can mark it and return. Good luck to you.
your address should be www.indiepublic.com/profile/graceann. try that and see if it works. that's how i found you...i know---it's daunting some times! :0)
