The box is in the mail hopefully received by Friday. It weighed about 30 pounds. I put 40 just in case. Due to generous peas who contributed postage funds, I can calculate any left over for a gift card.
Total layouts: 201, approximately. I may have miscounted.
This is the box right before I stuffed in the packing material and sealed it:

I could possibly give some sneak peaks this weekend sometime!
I try to leave them just as they are so they don't get my hands on them! I would totally freak if something happened to any of them!

you are so awesome for taking this on when I sort of rambled about wishing we could do her layouts for her, the peas ran with it! I don't know that we have taken on anything this big before. It's amazing, and definitely bigger than I ever imagined! I have a huge box if we get to like over 200 layouts and 2 smaller ones if we stay in the 150 range, which looks doubtful. I am going to give some sneak peaks this weekend, probably Sunday, because I have a crop tonight and tomorrow and I have to get points for our team and do my own Mothers challenge!

The entire talent of our craft is right here on this board It really is amazing! And of course, I don't know who made what because I don't know pea names to match with them as I unpack them, and I mess with them not at all - just ooh and ahh and put them safely in a larger box where I am keeping them all for now. More astute peas who can recognize the work of others would be able to open a box and say, that's myboysnme, or that's gramma. But me, I have never been able to do that!

The old 2Peas scared me. I lurked around, posted once, got hand slapped big time and went back to lurking. I love the new 2Peas. The members here are, I believe, a true reflection of the goodness in this world. This is the second time I have participated in a 2Peas project in support of one us. I'll do it again if the opportunity is there.

Thanks for being the organizer!

The members here are, I believe, a true reflection of the goodness in this world. Me too! I was way too chicken to say anything on the old board but I've even started a thread in NSBR here! I really wanted to make some LO's for Donna but I pffafed about thinking about it and procrastinating and eventually made a card and posted that last Saturday. But I wanted to contribute some more, so I've sent myboysnme some money for postage which I'm sure won't be enough if there's 200 LO's, so I'll send some more when we know the total! So I feel like I've done a bit even if it wasn't actual LO's.

What I plan to do with postage help is possibly send them overnight or minimally 2 day. Anything left over I will purchase a gift card and send it to her. I will let everyone know how much postage is and if I send a gift card, how much it is. When I took on the project I planned to pay for postage myself, and with some peas wanting to contribute toward those costs I just want to be completely transparent when it comes to that. My initials are RG not TC!

myboysnme I sent my package out today to you and you should get it Monday. There are eight layouts. And it is preschool through sixth grade times two. I also included a card for Donna and it is in the page protector with one of the pages. I also sent a card to you and some money for postage. Thank you so much for doing this for us and for Donna!

Mine (from MN) have my name on the back of the layouts. Thanks for being the organizer! I'll admit that I put LLL on the cardstock's barcode label on the back of the layouts I made. But the layouts were sent in page protectors, with the white separator page backing it, so you can't see it unless the layout is pulled out of the page protectors.

My 7 very simple layouts should arrive tomorrow. I made 8, but the reason I can't have nice things (aka my cat) tipped over my wine glass on the 8th while it was drying. I wanted to do more, but my allergies were not cooperating. I didn't sign them, but my pea name is on the return address label. I hope Donna feels the biggest warmest hug from all of us, when she opens the box.

All I have is girly products so I can't really help due to I'm unemployed at this time because I had a grand mal seizure at work. I can't drive and my old job required a lot of driving. I wish I could help out. I love you peas. What a wonderful compassion group you are. If the good Lord helps me find a new job that will be more suitable to my situation soon I can chip in some money for postage.

Does your city have a disability group that could direct you to jobs that are a better match for you?
