Mail Swaps

As you may have noticed, I like designing blogs.  I don't charge, but instead I do a mail swap with whomever I'm doing the blog design for.  I think it's a pretty sweet trade off...a brand spankin' new design for some snail mail?  Yes please!

You may remember the design I did for Toni of Lost Cabin a while back.  She's a great lady from the land down under and sent me some Aussie goodies, along with a super sweet sweater and earrings from her Etsy shop.  I'll post photos of the sweater at a later date...perhaps an outfit post?  Oh yeah.





The chocolates above are VERY intriguing.  I have no idea what animals these are.  Australia is a pretty magical place. ;)

Toni also sent a turtle for Benji, but he's since hidden it amongst his other toys.  I do have this one photo of him lying with it.  He really didn't want his photo taken that day.


I'll post some more photos later of swaps that have happened.  Viva la snail mail!

Later gators,

That's a great idea. When I do blogs, I don't like charging.. especially because I'm new at the whole thing and this is a great exchange! :)

Oh my! this is just perfect! I might need to send you an email I think! You're super clever the blog design is lovely! x

Uhm, please redesign my blog. I love sending care packages!

I keep telling myself that I should redesign my own blog...but I also know that while in school, it's never going to be at the top of my to-do list.

So yes--let's chat! :D

Nawwww, you be the best :) ok, now looking at those animals: the first is a fruit bat, i think the next is a bilby (marsupial)....hmm hard to tell, then a wombat and a platypus! They were my fave chockies when I was little :)
