Please can you help with my Mail Wall?

Oh wow! A  Mail Wall what a fabulous idea! I'd love to do one. I'll start by putting me on!

If anyone would like to send me any mail art to contribute to my wall, I'd be very grateful.
I'll send something back to you too!

To my pen pals - check out this outgoing!

I've done some organisation in my craft room and came across my letter rack. I had some letters to reply too and some Christmas preparations to complete so I cracked right on! I didn't want to be in a rush when it comes to the International Christmas delivery dates (I don't like being under pressure!).
 Tomorrow I shall be going to my local post office...

...to post these! They have taken me all weekend to complete, I'm pleased with how they look!
I've put a quote I love on your parcels! Happy mail day to you!
They're a bit too big to fit in the post box though!
Having re-read all my latest letters, there was a theme going on! Most of you have mentioned stamp collecting and getting excited when you when you see the gold stamp. I thought you'd like to see Royal Mails 1st and 2nd class Christmas stamps!
I also prepared the Christmas presents that I need to give out in the next couple of weeks to the friends/family that I won't see again before Christmas. Hope you all like them.
It's been great making some new pen pals this year. I love that you are spread all over the world and very best wishes to you all. Hope my mail reaches you soon and look forward to speaking to you again soon!
Lots of love

Craft Room

We have been decorating for months now to make an arty crafty room. The house is still in chaos with boxes scattered everywhere and things to put away, it feels like its never going to end! I have been ruthless in what to keep, sell and give away. It's at times like this you realise just how much STUFF you accumulate! Luckily there's a local table top sale I'm doing soon.

This is the wallpaper I chose...
And my husband hanging it!
After the new carpet was fitted he took all my craft things up but we lacked storage so...
we went to Ikea and got another 3 bookcases (there's 7 in there now!).
Then I attempted to find a home for everything!
There's still a lot to do but I think we're making progress. I baked him some buns to say thank you for working so hard on it!
I shall give you a guided tour when it's all done and dusted!
