  1. Hope you are well and continuing to create batik masterpieces.
    Stars are on the way Kate.
    Just mailed thousands of star stickers from Bangkok. They claim 5 day delivery to Ghana.

    and Marie mailed star stickers from Los Angeles.
    What else do you need?

    Please post a response to my June 26 comment.
    Or here... can you and your fine organization use (210cm. wide x 140cm. high x 140cm. deep) five sided mosquito nets in bright colors? Thanks.
    With Love,
    Steven

  2. Hey, Steven! I emailed you a response, but essentially, I'm not sure if Ghanaians need the nets---they might be a cool material to have for class, but most Ghanaians don't want or need nets (they are more resistant to malaria than foreigners).
    Thanks for the stickers---you are amazing!!!!!

  3. I know this is my school from Koforidua. I completed it in 2011, and I really feel sad because I love my school because I am deaf.
