....yes, I should be sanding floor tiles for the petite maison's bathroom/dressingroom, but the weather here today is absolutely 'filthy'....rain, wind and just plain 'horrid'....not to mention 'cold'...so I am totally uninspired!!!
But I thought I would show you some of the 'mini mail' I have been making. I made some a couple of weeks ago and now I have made a few more. This time I have two envelopes that are a bit 'special'....one has its own removeable letter and the other has its own removeable photos. They can then be stored away in an old shoe box....even a miniature house needs a box of 'memories'.....or perhaps...'lettres d'amour'.......

Absolutely charming, Linda!!! That's a lot of work but well worth the effort!

They look so like the real full size version, even down to the stains that postcards and letters seem to pick up on their travels through the post bags.
Linda, those are outstanding! BTW, Could you tell me what the "Sajou" on the lid of the box means? I often run onto it on French embroidery sites. A lot of the old pattern leaflets seem to have that name/word on them. Thanks!
Beautiful and fantastic!! I LOVE my box of mini mail!

Hi Linda, the letters are exquisite. The weather in Melb is just as bad but great miniature weather!! Have fun... love your house. Lorella
The letters are lovely! Seems we all are losing the art of writing letters, a shame really! I love the old handwriting, so elegant and graceful.
Lovely letters Linda! And yes, you are right.. my french lady should absolutely have some of those stashed away! Maybe I can make her some!
Your letters make me cry. In a good way of course. They are beautiful, really wonderful.

Those letters look absolutely fantastic! I love making them myself, it's like creating a story.
Love the billets doux--so French. I would love to have a little pile of them tied up with a tiny ribbon on my desk.

..thanks Sophia, I have a little pile of these letters on the kitchen table...tied with a pretty pink bow, these I made several years ago....sometimes it is the simplest things that make the biggest impact!!
Regards, Linda

Precious memories of (maybe bygone?) days filled with love and laughter. To capture that is magic!!
