This was like a “season finale” unboxing video. This was an awesome box to honor our Gem Leader. Awesome box Gina!!! 💜💜💜

[@magdaherbert]

Yes, Gina is definitely one of the most generous and overall lovely gems . I hope you get as much as you give

[@ThatCraftyLife]

Those pillow cases are BEAUTIFUL!!! 😍 Gina, I see some pralines in your future! 😉 Love watching you, as always! 🥰

[@sharontuch3405]

Gina, I don’t know you but what a thoughtful box, put together, well I’m still in AWE!!

[@GinaGrowe]

Thank you Sharon, this is what my mom used to do for our birthdays and Christmas - if it was a really big gift then a hide and seek game would be involved.

[@sharontuch3405]

Now you’re getting more box’s !! Can’t wait

[@normatulloch376]

Wow Gina is so generous. I love your "see you on the flip side"

[@GinaGrowe]

Thank you Norma.

[@WillowCreekStitchCo]

Fun swap! I love it!

[@marthascreativelife]

Gina is an absolute sweetheart!!!!!

[@GinaGrowe]

Thank you Martha, how's the lion going?

[@pauladimattei6434]

Gina, you are so clever….I loved this unboxing…❤

[@mathgeek7966]

Tang!! I haven't had that in years either! 😂 And astronaut ice cream! Fun box.

[@GinaGrowe]

My dad worked for NASA - he was an engineer for the Apollo series and brought Tang and ice cream bars home for us to try - Tang was nasty but we drank it because we wanted to be astronauts! They actually make other flavors overseas - I wanted to try some of those but they didn't look like the original.

[@pastryqueenfarmadventures]

Krystal that pineapple lip scrub is wonderful. I already used mine. I love it.

[@crystalheartchannel]

Ooo I can’t wait to use it!

[@Mitziquilter]

Wow that was so interesting. I didn’t get it at first then by the third gift I got it. It was so cool how it was all space themed. Great job. You are so special. I love to see Krystal happy.

[@crystalheartchannel]

It didn’t click for me either. Lol… you are too sweet!

[@pastryqueenfarmadventures]

@ginagrowe you need to go into box making with a theme. I would buy an advent box from you.

[@crystalheartchannel]

Yesss!

[@GinaGrowe]

Forgot to tell you that yes, the song is called "Fly Me to the Moon", and some David Bowie "Space Oddity" is the Ground control to Major Tom. When we do a swap I listen to inspiration music for sewing/quilting and packaging. Here's my song list (I like covers along with the originals): Space Jam - Quad City DJ's Star Wars Theme The Galaxy Song - Monty Python When You Wish Upon A Star - Cher Rocket Man - Elton John Space Oddity - David Bowie Fly Me to the Moon - Lucas King piano (the 1964 version by Frank Sinatra was played on the Apollo mission) To Where You Are - Josh Groban Man on the Moon - REM Across the Universe - Beatles Here Comes the Sun - Beatles Bad Moon Rising - CCR (Creedence Clearwater Revival) Final Countdown - Europe Drops of Jupiter - Train Starman - David Bowie Walkin on the Sun - Smash Mouth Kryptonite - 3 Doors Down Counting Stars - One Republic Walking on the Moon - the Police Talking to the Moon - Bruno Mars I Don't Want to Live on the Moon - Kermit the Frog and Aaron Neville Moondance - Van Morrison Venus - Bananarama Imperial March - D. Vader - hoping everything is in the box & I don't have to open it up again cause I like tape & I tape it good, real good.

[@sharontuch3405]

@GinaGrowe I knew all the songs you put on there. Figured we were about the same age! 🤣

[@GinaGrowe]

@@sharontuch3405 Hi Sharon! I turned 65 on May 4th. I wanted to put the songs on a USB but my CD copier pooched out - yes, I have all those songs on CD's! When I see what the swap is I immediately start an inspiration song list...the June swap only had two songs - so, had to loop those puppies, glad they were good ones.

[@GinaGrowe]

LOL! I told Dave as you opened up the first couple that you forgot the theme. He found the Milky Ways and Orbit gum - I was focused on finding the Astronaut Pop Rocks, it's aggravating when a store shows they have them and then you get there and they have no idea what you are talking about. Baby Yoda can be attached to car mirrors (if it's not illegal in your state), totes, closets, lingerie draws, etc. I have Scooby Doo in my car sitting on the console. When the scent starts fading just stuff him back into the container, close the lid and wait for a day - he'll come out fresh as new! The galaxy bag was all "mask" type stuff cause I think I'm so hysterical and the theme was stars, galaxy, space, etc...well, okay, the Pineapple lip scrub is my favorite and you had had something similar on your wish list. The BBW "In the Star" lotion is a new scent. I really wanted to send you some frozen peas since that is what I use for an eye mask 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Couldn't figure out how to keep them frozen though or I would have! Yes, the Oreo's came out for Star Wars day - or for me, probably for me. The ice cream sandwiches are from the Astronaut Food store - they have a couple other flavors. When my dad worked for NASA designing spaceship doodads he would bring home the food that the astronauts would eat while on Apollo. We sat in front of the TV and watched the moon landing, ate our ice cream and drank Tang - of course cheered like crazy. I was 9 and my brother was 10 - we also raced home from the bus stop to watch Dark Shadows and the Lone Ranger. Yes, Dr. Karen Nyberg - y'all watch her KZbin if you get the chance, it's fascinating watching her float around and trying to sew. I knew you would appreciate the Alison Glass (I actually looked for the moon in mustard to go with the Art Theory) and especially the Art Theory. I'm so so glad you like it. AND I was going to do a really big pillow case but was afraid you wouldn't be able to find a "body" pillow...of course you have Joseph like I have Dave and they make great pillows.

[@crystalheartchannel]

You really went all out! I loved every last bit. I keep telling everyone I talk to about it. They could care less 😂😂 Yes I literally forgot the theme for the first few items. 😂😂 but that’s on brand for me. Oh and I actually sleep with a pregnancy pillow. Joseph hates it. The pillow cases are definitely coming to the RV and I’m finishing my Tula Nova to go with it. Or possibly making an Alison Glass Quilt. Maybe I’ll enlarge my Carnival quilt to go with it. Anywho, thanks so much! ❤️❤️❤️

[@GinaGrowe]

@@crystalheartchannel You are very welcome and I'm so happy you like everything.

[@pastryqueenfarmadventures]

I’ve never heard of art theory. Where have I been.

[@GinaGrowe]

My friend - it's Alison Glass and is my absolute favorite of her lines. It's a few years old and no longer available unless you want to sell a kidney.

[@crystalheartchannel]

I will sell a kidney for it. Joseph’s kidney.

[@GinaGrowe]

@@crystalheartchannel 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ShalaGoertz]

amazing. I couldn’t come up with one thing for this swap so I passed. why none of this occurred to me I have no idea. i’m blaming it on getting old 😂.

[@crystalheartchannel]

😂😂 she definitely thought of all the things.
