happy mail...

I have had two lovely packages turn up in the mail over the past week...the first was from Tash over at poppyseeds who sent me a "just because" package. Such a generous gesture and filled with wonderful things! The first was a felt box that she had made based on this tutorial. Lined with a fabric map and finished with a covered button.

And there was more...some great old stamps of different weather conditions- stormy,cold,hot,windy....the girls will have fun with those;an lovely old Atlas that is destined for a new collage project I've been thinking about and some wonderful rosemary salt that smells divine.Oh and thread and  buttons ( just love buttons!) Thank you, Tash!

The second came from Melissa in NZ. I had admired a wonderful barkcloth bag on her blog and after a  few emails back and forth we organised a swap. It took me way too long to get my package together but happily it's on its way to NZ now and should be there any moment...Melissa not only sent me the coveted bag but a host of other goodies as well!
My bag...

and goodies!

What will be in the post this week , I wonder.....
