into my mailbox! Luckily, I rescued her before it starts to rain later this afternoon (Soggy wings, after that long boat ride from China...it just wouldn't be fair!)
Her sisters should be landing in some other mailboxes quite soon!

She looks better than the pictures that we've all seen! I think she's a rather "limited use" set (that has never stopped me from purchasing!), but could possibly be used for Peter Pan, too, since there's a short hair version on the die, also. I don't think she's limited to just being a TOOTH fairy, but could be used in other magical-type layouts, too!

I'm so glad that you rescued her! I hope she still had some fairy dust after that boatride from China!

Woo Hoo, lss had this one in. Couldn't believe it. She is cute. They had an example up as a toothfairy and one as tinkerbell (that's the first think I saw when I saw the die online, it would make a nice tinkerbell) and tink was adorable. Now to track down a holly border when it comes out!

Mine arrived this morning too, I'm not totally sure I like it, it has a certain "cartoony" quality to it. I think it will have limited use.

I can understand your concerns but I would say the piccy on the front does not do it justice. For what its worth here are a few suggestions: Change the eye colour - black would work better adding a white dot Lips - soften them by changing to pink (more subtle) Wings - cut them out of irredescent card/paper, vellum or acetate Hair - shade it to give it depth I'll personally lose the tooth bag - doesn't work for me, but I may play around with it, add a drawstring or something. |

How on earth did I get MY tooth fairy before she flew to you? I guess I'll have to go thank my mail carrier for this miracle! |

I didn't like the fact that she charged me tax and I don't live there nor do they have a shop here. |

I didn't like the fact that she charged me tax and I don't live there nor do they have a shop here. Regarding the tax thing! Thank the elected officials for that one. Sometime back, and I don't know all the details, there was legislation to charge sales tax to INTERNET customers, because the states were complaining they were losing money. So if the state signed onto this, company's doing business on the INTERNET, even if they do not have a store in that state, are suppose to charge sales tax for the state they are sending the product to. Then somehow that money gets to the coffers of the state the product was shipped to. There were huge stories on our news about this because we live in WA and our Govenor was touting the fact she will be getting all this money for our state. Ya right! Do we think this might be a bookkeeping nightmare for the small mom and pop type operations. Nothing changes, no matter how much hope people think there is. It stinks, but people keep re-electing these people and we still get the shaft. Now please let me off my soap box. |
