Another list of fun things to send in the mail is my fave


-a package of goodies all of one color.

- a paper chain of friends

- a surprise ball (via Sweesaw)

- an illustration of something you saw that day (see more at Jill's blog)

- a polaroid with a short message 

Carnival party in a box - include tissue paper medallions, bags of carmel corn, tickets, balloons, cotton candy

I love the package of goodies all of one color. Cute color.

That surprise ball is way cuter than the ones we made. But I think the kids liked it just the same. It would be fun to get a surprise ball with fun stuff for adults and not just dollar store junk.

What a cute list and post! I'm heading back to college this weekend and told Mom that she should send me something like that carnival party in a box (especially the cotton candy part). She just laughed. I wasn't kidding ;)

Have a lovely weekend Melanie!

Love the carnival idea! If only it was possible to send funnel cake and skeeball through the mail...

"I am CRAZY (watch out)" is pretty hilarious. I love that idea – the polaroid bit, that is :)

One of my best friends was proposed to in a hot air balloon, and she collects cute hot air balloon stuff, so I'm definitely going to have to get her those 3D balloon cards!

LOVE the paper chain of friends! What a fun idea!! I've no plans to marry any time soon, so instead of using this for brides maids, perhaps I'll make them for a girls' night event!! :)
