They are all wrapped on cards and stored in numerical order in one of those postal boxes you buy flat pack from the post office. Works great and cheap to replace too if it gets tatty :-)Hippywitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08369327805860838343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523392355150477707.post-21807421083215457812011-09-01T05:27:41.130+01:002011-09-01T05:27:41.130+01:00This looks lovely, will be nice to see it finished...This looks lovely, will be nice to see it finished on a card.
