Sending Bouquets of Love, originally uploaded by Trisha Brink Design.

When I saw this photo I almost squealed with delight. It's just so pretty and girly and well just lovely. Mail boxes like this are great. I reckon they'd make collecting the post into an exciting event. And extra cool if you were to find a bouquet of flowers in there! That said collecting the post is always a bit of an event in our house. Our little girl is the mail monitor and always rushes to the door to collect it for us. I don't know about you but I do get a little bit excited when the postman calls. It's usually junk mail or bills but every now and again it's something fun!

How cute is this? I think we should all leave little notes like this for the ones we love. Whatever happened to letter writing anyway? I can't remember the last time I received a handwritten letter.

When we were children my sister and I used to write each other little letters and leave them under each other's pillows. Also my husband used to write me letters like this many years ago way before we were married (and when his handwriting was actually rather neat!). It's also rather scary to recall that I was at university before email became so popular and long, long before the delights of facebook! Therefore I kept in touch with many of my friends back home via letters. I have kept all of these treasures but I wouldn't be able to find anything so exciting in the depths of my email inbox.

Great photo, really simple but so lovely. I'd love to receive a cute love letter like this from my husband. In fact, I may even write one for him.
