january mail week 2 & 3

Hello guys, how was your mail week?
Mine was very good, I've sent out a few letters and received some awesome and unexpected things from my penpals; but let's proceed in order.
That's what I've sent this week: 

a parcel for Kelly in the US with a belated Christmas little something.

I finally replied to Ankita's letter, and also wrote a first letter to my new penpal Momoka from Japan.
I wrote some postcards to some pals that I haven't heard from in a while: Neda in Norway, Nada in Algeria and Nadz in Malaysia, plus a postcard swap for Jenni in Finland :)
 
Then I sent a package full of coffee and chocolate to Siana in Macau,

and three more postcard swaps arranged on Instagram.
The incoming mail have been really great this past weeks; First, I got a Christmas package from my dear friend Khris in Spain, and she sent me a little reindeer plush (which I've named Neville), a candy cane, a necklace and a gorgeous notebook:

Then, I received Jenni's half of the swap, which was this really cutesy postcard:

A letter from Corey in Singapore, which took only two weeks to arrive (!) and it was very nice to finally be able to read a proper letter from her :3

A teeny-tiny letter from Lauren in the UK:

I'm not sure if you can tell how small it is, but I was very surprised that they successfully delivered it as if you try to mail something that size from here, they'd probably return it or even just lose it..
Anyway, I then received a lovely letter from Thea in Norway, decorated with a cute pastel bunting and filled with two cute little cards:

Lastly, but most definitely not least, a wonderful parcel from Elisse, who along with her letter sent me an handmade sketchbook and a little bag she made:

The fabric is soooo pretty, I've been loving floral patterns recently. I still have to decide what am I going to use it for, it would be great as a pencil case for when I'm on the go but I don't want it to get dirty..so I don't know. Any ideas? :)

Anyway, she also sent me some beautiful pictures she too, which are going straight into my smashbook and on my corkboard!

That's it for me today! What did you received this week?

Have a nice weekend,

ƒ.

Ps. sorry for the not very awesome quality of the pictures, but my camera battery was dead, so my phone had to do the job!
