I love the idea of mini-care packages! Little figurines, game pieces, interesting labels, erasers and small shiny things... I grew up in a home full of these things, so there can seem to be an art to the interestingly placed items. If nothing else, they should bring a smile or small laugh to the receiver and if they get thrown out or passed on, no harm done.
Be aware though- if you are sending this fun mail as a package, the U.S. postal system (and likely most postal systems) require packages be of a certain size in order to put proper postage on them. So you may need to put these cute little surprises in manila envelopes. Or, if the package is less than 13 oz. try you luck mailing it as regular mail! If an item is 13 oz. or less you should be able to mail it with a stamp.
so pretty!

Moo minicards are really cool, but this one the company sent along about being friends just cracked me up.
DeleteI absolutely love this idea. I think I will send one to my friend in Miami!

DeleteHope you have fun making a mini-package!
I love this! You do send the best packages, so it's no surprise!
Reply Deletehaha aw, this is so so cute! i love the little trinkets and knick-knacks you chose. and getting a care package is the best feeling in the world, so it's great that you're spreading the idea around ;)
Reply DeleteCare packages are so fun :)
DeleteAbsolutely lovely!
Reply DeleteThanks.
DeleteCare packages are already so fun, so I think a MINI one would be even cuter!!! Also, I don't think I have officially said CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement yet! I even went back and read the about a boy post, which was adorable! His proposal sounds so cute and thoughtful, wishing you both a ton of happiness in this new year!

Aw, adorable! I love the little stack of strawberry pancakes-cuuuute! To answer your question the job I have now is as a site coordinator at an afterschool program. I write lesson plans and schedule activities for the students who are enrolled. I used to work at a site with 50 students as a helper, but now I moved to a smaller school as the coordinator with only 16 kids in the program. I really like it and I'm not sure I'll ever want to be a regular elementary teacher. There's too much structure!
Reply DeleteThat sounds like a really fun job!
Deletesooo creative, love the polka dot box!! The recipient of such a package would feel very special!
Reply DeleteThanks- I sure hope they'd feel special ;)
DeleteOoooh, these are super cute and original! I love the idea of sending them out, or better yet, receiving one! Hahaha. xo Nikki
Reply DeleteOh, before I forget: HAPPY NEW YEAR Kristian!!
