I love love getting mail! I very rarely receive anything besides bills and Victoria's Secret catalogs... so whenever I get a personal letter or a package, I'm in hog heaven!!
Would anyone be interested in a mail exchange with each other? Either a just small cute note, or a small craft too?! I'd love to swap! Email me if you're interested or leave me a comment with your email!
I won the "If You Never Did, You Should..." contest awhile back for my post and photos about the wonders and majesty of underwater life while Scuba Diving! (click to see my scuba diving photos!)
I got a lovely red box with my name on it -- so exciting! Inside was an Anchor t-shirt from Jodi's line called "Pirate Bath" as well as a copy of her favorite book (and one of mine too) "Pride and Prejudice," a silver locket ring, and the coolest part: a Fisheye camera! I'm very excited to buy some film and use it!!
p.s. the note says "I love your photos!!" even though it looks like "I love you" haha!
Then, I participated in a mail exchange hosted by Caroline at Coeur de La, and received this sweet package from a certain Melissa, who I wish had left her blog address or something similar! I might have to just write her a thank you note in the mail.
In this package was a few of her favorite things: her favorite chocolate (70% dark -- it's DIVINEly dark!), her favorite recipe (Taco Soup), and her favorite craft to make: an adorable Hawaiian print makeup bag! I thought that it was so sweet of her to send me this nice little clutch bag. PLUS everything was tied up with this polka dot ribbon -- one of my favorite things!!
Finally, I won a giveaway hosted by The Drifter and the Gypsy. The prize was from Jackie Bos, who sent over some of her arts & crafts! It was packaged sweetly with red/white twine.
She included an illustrated book "I Heart the Arctic" with cute drawings of eskimos and snowy animals. Her illustrations are abstract and colorful.. and I really like the reversible handmade heart ornaments!
Thank you to everyone for your lovely packages! I loved them, and truly appreciated it... Snail Mail is the best, and makes me smile!! :)
