Donna,
I am redoing my bedroom right now and I think I might have to come back soon to order your Dream Banner. It is gorgeous. Could you let me know how big the finished product is? Also, I shared on Facebook. Would love to win a prize from you. My email address is: vandyzfam@sbcglobal.net. I have linked you to my page in FB also. Thanks again.
