This is the first time my package pal didn’t have a blog or pinterest board or some way for me to get to know her…luckily Melinda sent me pictures and told me a lot about herself. She lives in Australia and is a nurse like me and seems we both like vintage and we had an instant connection. So I had an idea of what she liked…I hoped anyway! So I made her a flower pin from felted/fulled wool.
Melinda has this thing for caravans…so I whipped up a pillow with a hopefully recognizeable caravan. I almost decided to keep it myself but decided to send it off to Australia!
Actually I had fun making it…thought it turned out pretty cute!
I sent it with the flower pin,
some wool felt from my stash,
and a pink bunting made from a vintage sheet.
I love the whole Package Pal concept! Thanks to Jamie at C.R.A.F.T. and Julia at Stars and Sunshine for organizing all this!
The funny thing is that Melinda and I both got our packages in the mail the same day! How unlikely is that?? I am working on a second post for the package Melinda made for me! It was too awesome to include in the same post!
