It took me a while, and I just want you to know that this is a statement on how much I really like you. Please wash it carefully so you can have it for a long time to come." It's hard to say that without sounding like kind of a jerk.

Cute, eh? These little lovelies will soon be available for sale online in sets of 3. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for news on the new online craftshop.

Love,
Malia
