My wishes are always the same, but if you need a reminder -

     Stationery is always welcome!  I don't need note cards just now, but will always take and put to good use any writing paper - tablets, loose sheets, boxes, packets,whatever. Don't let it sit languishing, unloved, in a drawer, I'll use it. It will go all over the US and maybe to Europe. So keep me in mind.

       If anyone ever finds any of the old freezer bags, like Hefty or Kordite - the kind that use a twist tie NOT zip-lock to close, please also think of me. There may be some sitting in some old auntie's house - I really don't care how old they are, as long as they are clean and useable.

      Also always looking for notes and cards with sheep on them. And anything to do with Saint Bernards - those are hard to find. (RIP my Bear, 2013)

 

Thanks for looking and for being a part of our RAOK forum.

Pen Pals! Especially from states I'm not currently writing to.... I love learning about the different places people live. I'm not currently writing to: Colorado, Delaware, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Rhode Island, North and South Dakota, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

I'd also love any stationary or envelopes you have lying around. Even greeting cards, especially ones that are blank inside.

Birthday cards! My birthday is April 24th and I'd love to get birthday wishes!

Anything owls or Wizard of Oz

Wishing for bottle caps like these (especially beer, but pop/soda or plain will work too).

My 11 year old grandson is on the swim team and loves Michael Phelps. If you have anything related to Michael Phelps it would be most appreciated.

Rit Dye. Any color or black or white.

Strange request. I need energy saver light bulbs.

Glass beads for beading or any old beading tool or supply that you may have.

I would love "natural" or "organic" lotion, shampoo, powder or perfume.

I need dryer sheets. Any brand will do.

Any high tech pedometer you no longer use. Such as the "Up", or "Vivo", etc.

Size 12 one piece swim suits. I am a swim teacher and the chlorine eats up my swim suits like candy. Lol.

Happy Passover

Happy Easter

Thanks so much!smileyheart

I can always use sticky notes. I have a lot of projects going on right now and the notes are so handy in helping me keep order - I go through them like crazy!  

Thank you  -   heart

Anything with cats or owls

Any kind of pens, notepads or stationery

Coupons for any Glade/Febreze stuff (plug-ins, candles, etc.) or actual Glade plug-in refillscrying.  I can't find them in stores around here anymore!

Bookmarks! I am constantly misplacing mine.

Postcards, used or not.  I'm building a collection of old postcards to display in my office and using others as a 'throwback' surprise for family members (who are way too used to getting emails).  I have some from as far back as the 50's and from all over the world.

Thank you!cheeky

I'm looking for a little glass or stone frog.  Wooden?  Painted?  Small enough to fit in a terrarium.  My husband built a beautiful one but it needs a little "something" on the inside.  Thank you.  Two of their way!

A friend is sending me a Wade figurine turtle but my husband loves frogs.  I've been looking for one everywhere we go but nothing so far.

Thanks!

I could really use some yarn (any kind other than rug yarn, any amount) to donate to my church for a prayer shawl project we have going on.  We have quite a few adults and a couple youth knitting and crocheting prayer shawls for folks in our church and local community and we can always use more yarn.

I also help run one of the largest gaming groups in Charlotte and we can always use new board games to play.  I can also use board game bits, including random pieces, and even boards (these are for a craft project).

Thank you and have a lovely day!

An extra wish on behalf of my grandmother: If anyone has any items related to Grumpy Cat (the adorable cat on YouTube that has stolen so many hearts), please let me know. My grandmother is a big Grumpy Cat fan.

  • small, purse sized coupon holder/organizer.  I don't need a real fancy one, just one that I can put a few coupons in so I don't lose them when I go shopping.
  • canvas or recycled fiber totes--any size.  The larger ones I use for laundry and the smaller ones for groceries.
  • small magnets that would be appropriate to go on my file cabinet at work.  I have a couple, but would love to have more to help liven the place up--can be anything, animals, flowers, adds for businesses, anything "state" related would be great (like those state-shaped magnets that a lot of touristy places sell)

Thank you for looking
