If you could have a conversation with my lovely stones right now if would look something like this. Inspired by one of my very favorite artists Matte Stephens a stone thank you conversation bubble. The etsy shop update was a huge success today. The one stone per customer limit worked out really well and all the stones, merfish and necklaces sold out in about 10 minutes.
The stones are resting on the garden bench right now after the whirl wind of activity.
But they first gathered some flowers from the garden to show how much they admire each and every one of you. I have heard stone whispers that they are trying out secret experiments at night. I think it has to do with cloning in order to increase their numbers so that every one in the world can one day have a covered stone of their very own to hold.
These stones are so sweet it will be really difficult to send them all off into the big wide world but I just know they will be loved by their new owners.
Tomorrow I am thanking you all in the form of a simple little tutorial involving a stone with a hole and liberty tana lawn fabric. See you then :)
Congratulations! Huge success indeed. Love the Matte Stephens word bubble of stones. Cute!

So glad the stones found homes. I need to do a custom order--I wasn't fast enough!

I love the idea of everyone in the world someday having their own covered stone. It's a beautiful thought!

10 minutes! Wow, now wonder being an hour late was far too long, must set an alarm next time :)
The speed is a reflection of the beauty of your stones.
