Mail fun
April 26, 2012 § 1 Comment
Mail is my favorite. Sending is the best, but receiving is pretty great too. I love old fashioned letters and hand wrapped goodies and postcards made of cereal boxes. I love the process of getting the mail from the box and sorting it and putting each bit in its place. I even love our grumpy and slow post office.
I thought this was a box of breath mints. But it was this little old tin…
…full of lovely old buttons! What a perfect surprise, thank you friend!
Real mail is completely wonderful; a way to send someone tangible love without having to buy a plane ticket. It is very personal to send and heartwarming to receive. Go drop a postcard in the mail and make someone’s day!
Box of beauty

Found in a box from Italy today, love from a friend I cherish. Such richness! That’s a quote from Little Women. It is awesomeness colored green and the biggest thing I’ve ever picked up from the post office.
And to give you some sense of scale:
Its called a damigiana or demijohn.
