Snowballs of Kindness from the Uglibeads Tribe - Erica Taggart
Erica and I became online friends via Julie's Uglibeads group on Facebook. When she saw that I loved taffy, especially huckleberry taffy, she told me that it was actually made in her state of Utah. I do think part of why I love huckleberry taffy is not only that huckleberries are found in the northern part of the Inland Empire, but also because of their periwinkle color!
In early February I received a surprise package from her. I literally laughed out loud when I found she'd used huckleberry taffy as packing materials for her lovely bead gifts! The beads were huckleberry as well! Just my favorite color!
There were a couple of unique items too: orange kyanite and turquoise beads from closed mines. I didn't even know kyanite came in orange!
Some day Erica and I shall meet and that's a day I'm looking forward to having. Perhaps we'll meet at a jewelry convention?
Thank you Erica for your friendship and fun gifts!
Erica has a gift of a unique eye for finding treasures and creating jewelry with a vintage flair, especially an interest in Steampunk. Please check out her unique Tony Tiggert's Eye Candy shop on Etsy.

snowball of kindness
That is such a fun package! And I didn't know taffy came in huckleberry flavor! What a precious, sweet gift!
indeed!
It's the only flavor they sell in our neck of the woods in Idaho. :-)
I was very blessed with these snowballs!
yay!
I think actually you were the first peep to send snowballs out into the world, Janet! Which is super cool. So much special stuff :) I'm glad you had a few special things arrive at your doorstep too. Hugs :) xo
I was blessed for sure!
Thanks Julie. I think knowing I couldn't make anything to send it was easier to just go out and shop! :-) I was very blessed and even have one more to share! Just received it last weekend.
