Here is the note:
Flying fish for carnival in the children department of the library I work in. I loved them as a kid!
I just love it when someone loves these as much as I do! What a great way to bring back childhood nostalgia while making new memories with kids of all ages!

Note from Buyer
I plan to use these on a fortune teller board I'm designing
for the library I work at. I'll be showcasing our tarot and occult books
and these will be awesome decorations!
How fun! I hope she sends me an update with photos! Perfect for Halloween too!

Saying Goodbye: I loved these fortune fish as a kid too and my brother and I would play with them all day by checking our fortunes with them. Our favorite was making fun of each other when someone got the motionless or dead one. Not sure what that means exactly, but we thought it was funny at the time.
Later I used these in the classroom during my magic theme teaching because magic is a great way to introduce science and math, especially chemistry and logic. My blog fortune fish posting for the secret of how these really work is here.

What I Learned:
1. I like her version of flying fish because they do kind of fly or can look like they are flying when they turn over really fast over and over.
2. I'm happy to see more Etsy buyers are sending me photo updates on their projects!
3. I am thankful that so much of my hoard have become popular items and Etsy buyers leave me stories because it makes letting go of my hoard so much easier. Love all the inspiration and encouragement to keep on going!
4. As a matter of fact, dehoarding has been going so well that I have almost cleared out a small closet sized space to start emptying out my truck! Yes, I have a hoarded up truck! It's a long bed with extra cab and it's stuffed. I do leave it's bench seat empty, but sometimes it's not easy to keep it clear.
