Wow- this is the 15th edition of 15 Things to Put in a Care Package List! That's 225 unique items to put in your care packages.
Hopefully this series has given you ideas, and lots for fun for you and your loved ones' mailboxes. This is a series that is going to be retiring for awhile; 225 ideas are plenty! But keep checking in every week for new Mail posts on letters, care packages and other postal items.
This is such a fun series I totally want to send someone a package full of handmade snowflakes now :)

this is only my second time visiting your blog, and i hadn't come across any of your care package lists, but what a great idea for a post! i love putting little care packages together for people and wrapping everything all nice with a little note. this is such a fun idea! now i feel so inspired, lol! well done.
Reply Deletehow have you been, dear?
xox, amber
I have been well, thanks! How about yourself?
DeleteThis is perfect! I love sending letters and packages, but I run out of creative ideas of things to put in them. My little brother is leaving in a few months to go on a mission for the LDS church, and I told him I'd send him more packages than anyone. So, thanks for posting all these ideas--now I'll never run short!
