(DIY) Happy Mail Exchange

So you may remember this post where I had the idea (albeit rambling, it was still a good idea) to do a happy mail exchange.  The idea was for readers to sign up, and send their partner a happy mail package.  It could have included anything that would have meant "happy mail" to them! 
Here's a peek at a few of the pictures I received of the packages!  
Get ready to be cheered!





If you'd like to do your own happy mail exchange, you can read the post mentioned above for some simple guidelines to get you started! 

(and I know I said I'd be doing this again.....but I won't be. Not all participants followed the rules so I had some very unhappy messages throughout the process. Stole the joy from it..but you can get the joy right back by doing this yourself! Let me know if you do!)

    1. Thanks Sydnee!! Snail mail is lovely when it's not just newspapers and bills. I love a handwritten note! It's old-fashioned and lovely. :)

  3. This sounds like a fun idea....sorry it wasn't all you were hoping it owuld be! I think I may give it a try. Would it be okay if I used your Happy Mail photo?

  4. Darn! I missed this fun project! I hate when things don't go as planned. I once started one of those plates that you send around in a Sunday School class - the one where you make a treat, give it to a random person and that person is supposed to do the same and keep it going. Never saw the plate again! Never heard about anyone else seeing the plate either. Some people!

    Well, for the record.....I think this idea is wonderful! I love getting stuff in the mail and it would have been just as much fun picking out all the things for my recipient. Oh well.
