9 sets of numbers and 7 full alphabets (including a baby block alphabets; with bonus bottle caps, word brushes (for Photoshop) and vintage people).
The stuff you have on your website is amazing. I’m somewhat sad that my wife’s birthday was last month because I known she would love presents from this website. Well, maybe I will surprise her.
