in the mail box.








plenty of parcels in the mail of late, filled with beautiful goodies.
the always generous Susan of Scribblings from Jumbunna, a fellow op-shopper, sent a box filled with thrifted treasures: Johnson of Australia crockery, a beautiful green floral sheet and a stack of doilies (you know me well).
the vintage sheets for the 2013 vintage sheet FQ swap have started arriving too. i get a little bit excited opening the satchels to see all the pretty florals inside.
so far I have received parcels from Christy (a Christy Production) and Lynette.
Lea of Life, Love and Making Stuff and Tracy of Sunny Corner Farm along with the vintage sheet FQs sent a little gift. thank you ladies.
my purchase from Red Parka Designs arrived today too.
keeping the postie in business I am.

do you love receiving parcels in the mail?
gotten anything lovely lately?

  1. What fun! I tried to give away an automobile trunk full of goodies last May to my family, and they didn't even ask to see what I had to offer. They missed their chance! ;))) Wish you did not live so far away, or I would send you some "goodies." Linda@Wetcreek Blog and Wetcreek Museum Blog

  2. Nothing nicer than receiving parcels in the mail - you have some lovely goodies there. :-) Would you believe I stumbled across Jennifer's Red Parka stall a few weeks ago at Salamanca Markets here in Tassie and I bought a little Kookaburra print from her. Hope you're enjoying the crochet - it's quite addictive isn't it?! Mel x

  3. Your house must resemble a commercial laundry at the moment with all those vintage sheet F.Q.s arriving in the mail, and your own vast collection. I haven't forgotten I'm in the swap too, I bought the mailing satchels today and will post my package no later than next Tuesday! xx

  5. Oh look at your goodies Zara, just beautiful! I love the little stack of paper bits...seeds, cards and old books.

    Of course I love a parcel in the mail, just recently a kind blogging friend sent me a custom made tea towel cushion cover featuring my birth year! x

  6. Lovely! I actually have a terrible weakness for receiving things in the mail. I like it more than buying things from the shops! The internet is a dangerous thing for me sometimes ;)

  10. I love my mailbox and especially so when there are lovely things inside. Birthday and Christmas are the best of times for letter box goodies. I like sending just as much as receiving because I can imagine the joy it brings to the recipient especially a surprise letter, card or parcel.
