Until then, let me know if you are ineterested in getting abox of your own. No obligations or strings attached. I hope the recipients will pay it forward and make something, or maybe use this as an excsue to purge some stuff of their own, but I leave that part up to you.

I’ll chose one “winner” from each source, so you can triple your chances and sign up in all three places if you really want a box that bad. No restrictions on location, just make sure you let me know you are interested before Sunday, May 1, 9pm CST.
send me a box! 🙂 I would love a box as I just moved before christmas and had to toss so much of my own stuff or we would have had to order an extra truck :-p
I’ll take all the rick-rack, bias tape, the not-for-kids toys and feathers you want! It’s hard for me to find good stuff like that where I live, which by the way, I’d be more than willing to pay the shipping for! I’m getting all crazy excited thinking about projects I could use these things for!
Erm… yeah, I’ll have tat! 😀
Send me a box! Even though the Easter Bunny (aka my step granny) brought me two huge pickle jars full of vintage buttons. I’ve still got my whole craft table a mess sorting them out! JACKPOT!
Oh I would love for you to send me a box! Those ric racs seem fantastic!!
I could spend hours fingering through your craft room 🙂
Ohhh! I’m drooling over the ric-racks….
Yummy stuff.
oh please please please send me a box! This is perfect! My BFF sends me one periodically and its saved my life several times.
Oh oh pick me, pick me – Plah-leese send me a box! Ohh, broken beads, rick-rack, plastic dinos, swoon!
Oooh, I don’t need but I want! I can just imagine all kinds of things that those plastic animals want to be glued to.
Send ME a box!
Send me a box! Please! Oh what fun I could have with all that luscious stuff.

The understated euphemism was totally intentional, no better way to start a Tuesday than with some friendly sexual harassment.
Send me a box! Oh the fun I could have with that rick-rack. Paddy whack. Give a dog a bone. Or some jewels.
Oh! Pick me! Pick me! I’d love a box of goodies. I promise to hot glue the s**t out of everything.
(How much do I love the word verification, “mankylac”? So much).
I am sure I still have place for all this! 🙂

Send me a box! 🙂
Envoie-moi une boite. Oops, I meant : Send me a box. You always dreamt of sending some of your stuff to France.
Send me a box! – I can find a drawer or shelf or some floor space that’s not in use. It may even help get my creative juices flowing.
I am especially intrigued by the paper laterns and plastic animals! Can’t wait to get a peak in the lion’s den! So, yes… please send me a box 🙂 So much creativity waiting to happen there!
My knees gave out when I read this. I’m on your blog as soon as you put up a new post and find you an inspiration when it comes to using new materials. I’d love to see what I could do with some things straight from you. I’ll craft the hell out of that stuff.
Doh! I can follow instructions, I promise: Send me a box!

I could totally use a box of goodies for all the crazy ideas that we come up with for our participants in our Adult Day program. And as we are always on a tight (read:non-existant) budget for art /crafts this is totally up our alley 🙂
Oh Please send me a box!

What a Fantastic Idea, Send me a Box, I thinking what a great way to get new stuff to get your mojo going and then turn around and get rid of stuff, that might get someone else’s Mojo going.. I will definitely play this forward, rather I win or not..
Thanks for the Idea. I’ve recently gathered together a box of goodies for a young lady on Freecycle just starting out scrapping and will do it again maybe with a contest such as this in my groups.
i would really love to recieve a box ! i am a stay at home mom who is learning to be creative on a tight budget. this suprise would mean the world to me. i would love to share the fun with my daughter. VvHoy@comcast.net is my email.

***SQUEEEL*** Send me a box, if you please!!!
Send ME a box!!!!!
Hi, there. Send me a Box. I could do a lot with those goodies playing with my grandkids at art time.
Please, please, please send me a box! I love reading your blog and I want to say that I way so inspired by your garbage flowers that I have been saving every plastic bottle that I can find to make a garden of my own with my kids this summer. We don’t have a very big yard, but we do have a chain link fence in between my yard and my neighbor’s. Now I have tons of room for a flower garden! We don’t really go through that many plastic bottles in our house much, but I am hoping that once I start putting them out on my fence the neighbors will donate some of theirs too! Thanks for the great ideas!
Stephanie

Golly holly, 82 comments by the time I got here today! Well, I’ll say send me a box, I love buttons and colors and beads, although I love others to put the beads together for me. I have a friend who I would probably give the beads to if I won the giveaway. HOWEVER, I’m way down on the list, so good luck to the others.
I did something similar a few weeks ago and went through my craft room and gave away some of my rubber stamps. It was hard to part with them, but I know others will enjoy them. I know that is how you are feeling – someone else will benefit from your collective stash and be awed by it. You are a good woman, Peach.
Oooh how exciting!!!
I (like everyone else :P) would love for you to send me a box 🙂
You have such cool junk. It’s funny how appealing someone else’s stuff is …. so pick me … please.
And as for the alligator – paint him silver and put him next to your most “girliest” flowers. It will look great. Everyone needs a silver alligator.
I want one please??? I have had so much I had to throw out recently due to water damage. Grrrrr…and now more rain coming!
Send me a box!! I am slightly obsessed with ric rac and buttons!
Fun! Fun! Fun! Please send me a box!!!!
Please send me a box, it is such a wonderful thing to share. Way fun too!!

Laurie
I almost drooped on my keyboard, so your method of selecting supplies is spot on!
Please send me a box!
I just love the way you think, Auntie Peaches… surely, you’re the brightest light on the Internet.
I am not in acquisition mode because I am moving soon. But this offer is too g good to pass up! So send me a box.
I would be delighted if you would send me a box! 😀
Aunt (said with an ahhhhnt) Peaches. My Mom is in the Alzheimers ward in Florida. They don’t have much of a budget, but they do make crafts at least twice a week. They love craft foam and I send them easy kits from Michaels and Oriental Trading from time to time. They decorate 8 tables for every holiday, so they would love the Chinese New Year stuff. They also remember rick rack, so that would be good. They really NEED the mermaid sequins. They love to paste. They have about 12 regulars. I would love the plastic alligators. I would make a necklace and wear it to the golf club with my pink Lacoste (dressy for evening) and Lilly skirt. I don’t have a blog yet, so I mentioned you on Junk in my trunk. Does that count? If you send my Mom a box, I will get a box of stuff together in the next three months and pass that along. I have a vintage Cher doll that is missing a hand. I also have a mint, new in the box, Rosie O’Donnell doll that might be worth something, …someday. Pick us, please.!! Ann
Send me a box of awesome goodness. Make sure your kitty rolls around on it all so my kitty can have some fun too! And thanks for sharing your stash.
oooh, send me a box! i’d love some stash to add to my
stash!!
FUN! My craft stash is looking kinda boring to me these days. I could definitely use some new inspiration. Send me a box!
ooooo! me! I want stuff! You always need extra stuff! lol 🙂
Send me a box please – I would have so much fun with this!
Send me a box! My 4 year old and I would love it!
