    Flower seed packets

    Would you be willing to mail me your flower seed packets after you get them emptied? I ran across an idea the other day in a book of fiction, but I think it is neat. An older woman in the book at papered her mudroom wall with flower seed packets! I have a friend who has a hallway that she has been putting up paint chips like you pick up in paint sections of Lowes, Home Depot etc. and interspersing them with random objects, maybe a card or a picture she has cut out from somewhere on one of the walls. When I told her about the seed packets idea she loved it. I would like to help her with this project and I know it will take more than she and I will have between us. So, dear SL friends - if you would stick 2 or 3 or however many you can in an envelope and mail to me I would be very grateful!

    I'll see what I can't do over the next week or so. This sounds like a neat project. Would love to see a picture of it when it's finished.
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    The ReStore in our city had shopping carts full of seed packets - .10 each. Of course, I had to buy a bunch of them. When I finally get some planted, I can send.

    I don't know your user name but to K. Richardson in WA, thank you so much for your contribution to the project! My friend was overjoyed with these and the ones Lainey sent earlier.
