One of the advantages you have by playing an older version of the game is that Winter Street is the home of the things you need for Santa Amulets. It is a lot of repetition, but in order to reliably get the items you need in the Gingerbread ornaments collection, you will need to get to Professor level. Once you get there (316 more plays if you are still at 21%), you will start to get the missing items you need. And as you probably know, these items are not giftable, so there is not a lot of help that friends can provide.

On the other hand, you should be able to rely on friends to build your paint brush and therefore ladybugs supply. I used to do that with a lot of success. I no longer do because of the Pyramid and Orb, which keep me in ample supply of all of the paid picture currency. Unfortunately for you, playing on the older version means you will never get the Pyramid nor Orb, so you're doing the right thing to concentrate on paintbrushes. Suggestion here would be to post your code for new friends, and I will ask a few of my gererous friends if they can help you out. Also suggest you keep you WL populated with one or two CE's and not all CI's as some players respond better to that.

Finally, I will add the paintbrushes to my own WL, but please don't send me any. My only purposes there will be to accumulate a bunch of them and then pass them on to you.

Hopefully this all makes sense, and thanks by the way for letting me know about the language challenge. As a result I tried to write this with a little more plain English than normal.
