I received another lovely parcel from Oregon. My dear friend Dee so generously sent samples as well as little goodies for my children and even my husband got his share of Dee’s generousness in the from of his beloved Junior Mints, that are unavailable here. š
I always marvel at the generosity and level of sheer niceness that prevails in the perfume community. I am so happy to be a part of it.
And in addition Dee sent this practical stone she made herself (!!!) for keeping current 1ml samples together and stored stylishly. It took me awhile to figure that out though, since it came without instructions! š
A woman of many talents, indeed!
Thank you so much, Dee! I am so lucky to be able to call myself your friend!

Wow, I can’t believe Dee made that stone sample holder herself, how clever. It looks really cool.
She is amazing, isn’t she?
And did you see your samples sitting inside? So another thank you to you too, Tara! š
Oh yes! Glad you got them OK.
I just got them yesterday, so no time for an email yet, sorry! Hopefully today I get some more time! (Although chances are not good! š¦ )
What a wonderful way to start the weekend š
It really is! š
How sweet! I love the stone for storage, and isn’t her handwriting lovely as well?
So many people on several occasions commented on Dee’s handwriting! It is really beautiful!
The stone is genius!
Wow! The stone sample holder is really cool! I love it!!
It is pretty and practical. š
That’s a great gift, B! And one of the greatest gifts of perfume blogging is the way it makes connections and friendships possible – all over the world! For which I am grateful – to you, B, to Dee, to everyone, really – and so much more than you know! XOXO
Thank you, T, for once more putting into perfect words what is so true. Xoxo
