I have bought two sets of antique fansticks, both made of bone, one of which
has gold paint decoration on it. They both have the old, very dirty and
torn, fanleaves on them, which I want to remove so that I can make my own

Hi All, Thanks for all the comments on peeling mushrooms. Except for old
ones I have now peeled my last mushroom VBG. I even bought a mushroom
brush today (I was in the hardware store and it appeared right in front of

Does anyone know the URL for the stack of teddy bears that you click on and
they fall down?
An inane game that keeps tiny minds occupied for a while!!

Hi all,
I sent my exchange card away to Australia today. I hope it has a safe trip

Tennessee. I will hang my red and gold BL candle on our tree when we get it up.
I love having a new lace treasure to hang on the
