I think I've favorited some of bf's work before. Will have to take a back look through my etsy favorites.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by, hope you come back.Pamela Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251452639317129182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980870119150557142.post-65554589332387731572012-10-10T12:48:47.989-04:002012-10-10T12:48:47.989-04:00These are lovely and remind me so much of Bonjour ...These are lovely and remind me so much of Bonjour Frenchie!

Hope things are a little less 'stressful' for you. I think I'm going to leave them as is, they look really nice sitting on a bookshelf. Will bring all but the little one to the craft fair we're doing next month. We'll see what happens. They'd be really nice strung together to hang too, I think.Pamela Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251452639317129182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980870119150557142.post-22364995342542998862012-09-30T14:19:29.202-04:002012-09-30T14:19:29.202-04:00Love the colors you chose for the sticks.
