One day this week I came home and it was like I had hit the jackpot. I think I had 5 goodies (read: not bills or junk mail). One package was from Marta Mendes in Portugal. Back in the day I sent her one of my early postcrossing postcards and we’ve been flickr contacts for years. I inquired about how much she was selling her jewelry for and she offered that we swap! I was thrilled. Not only did she send me a brooch that featured one of her handmade buttons, but she also sent me a necklace and pictures and a vintage postcard. I’m so excited to finally have some of her stuff.
Then I got two of my prints that I ordered from Etsy last week. The packaging from linotte’s print was so incredibly adorable. It was put together so peciously and I think that every package should come looking just like this.
Here are my new prints. The top left from Linotte. The bearded, scarf-ed man from AshlyG and the female portrait, relief print from none other than Al Stark.
