Niiiiiice, Perfs... always fun to find a good deal. Those are sharp looking stamps which I'm sure doesn't hurt matters!

LOL Your probably right to one extent or another...It's just all that sorting BUT yesterday I taught my 5 year old daughter what to look out for, how to soak them, rinse them and press in a book and she was absolutely enthralled by it! She just wanted to learn everything and I bet we spent, at the least 4 hours just sorting some stuff a good friend (Thanks kacyds) had sent me. I never want it to end!! Family is the biggest thing in my life besides stamping and any time that I can spend good quality time with my daughter and stamps is just the greatest. So a bear box might fit the bill here soon. Thank you.

yep i agree man getting kids in on the process is great!! i got mine soaking, packing, stamping envelopes, and of course coming up with games for our members which she LOVES to do!!

does your little one collect? any particular area? i am sure i (and likely a number of members) would be more than happy to set them right up with some material

Even though my godfather is Italian, I am evicting the Italians from my Kiloware. Bear expect an envelope in the future with a lot of Italians in it.
