    Now that I have received almost all the candies, here are the recommendations I have: definitely tape the outside edges for reinforcement. I got three that were ripped, but all the contents were there. (I was surprised about one because the whole side edge was ripped.) Also, mail the first ones at the post office just to be sure of postage. I got one COD. No worries, it was only 21 cents : ) . The postage on them was all different, depending on the packing style. Thanks for all the lovely cards and extras, as well. Now it's my turn to start mailing!

    By taping the outside edges, do you mean all four sides of the envelope? And with scotch tape?

    Redstilettos, Sunrise450, and Nelco - Your Birthday cards and charms have were mailed today, hope you enjoy them!
    I use a small mailer with tape on back to cover the brad. Most birthday card envelops are so thin these days!
    hugs,

    HAPPY (late) BIRTHDAY!!! I was traveling to New Jersey yesterday to visit my daughter ❤️️

    I've scanned the posts but don't see you've received from me.... it was mailed out March 10th. It's odd sized. You can't miss it. (In my house you're the Birthday Princess until you stop receiving gifts!

    Happy Birthday cards and charms were mailed to Red Stilettos, Nelco, and Sunrise450 today! Look for the pink flowers on the envelope, so no peeking inside!

    Oh Mrs. Halibut...was that mine? I did it through the mail room at work....hoping they calculated it properly!

    I have also decided to do something a little different with the rest of the b'day crew.....so you might be seeing something else coming your way *wink*

    Ok MrsHalibut, now that you have had the best birthday ever......what are your plans for all those little buddies. Please don't tell us you are holding them prisoners in a box somewhere. (sing "Let my people go")
