&& A Happy New Year - Task One.

Oh My Gosh! You guys are the greatest! Such an incredibly, overwhelmingly positive response to my first Letter Exchange project! Eeeek! makes me want to create so many more!

Okay enough with the gushing.. down to business.. So Everyone who applied has been partnered up (check your junk mail if you're waiting on an email or contact me here) && I bet you're all dying to know what your first project is.. Well Drumroll please! (or something less cliché')

Ta-Daaa.. Yes, Your first task shall be to put together a lovely little "New Years Eve in an Envelope" for your partner. Think Sparkles & Glitter & Resolutions & Midnight Kisses. Think Fireworks & Friends & Staying up way to late, just to watch the sun rise on the first day of the new year. Got that? now shrink it down & stuff it in an envelope!

Let's Get Creative - think outside the box. What is essential for your Ideal New Years Eve, Do you have a resolution kit? Make them Bright & Sparkly & Confetti Filled - So much so that your partner can't help but to celebrate!

I've also created a little Pinterest Board & Plan on posting my "NYE in an envelope" on ze blog before the send deadline just to make sure your head explodes with inspiration & glitter! ps. If you have any brilliant ideas please leave a comment or two on this post!

1. Your Envelope stuffed full of all things New Years Eve-ish needs to be postmarked by December 13th - this is to ensure your partner will receive it before NYE!
2. Your Envelope should be a C5 Size ie: fit an A4 Paper folded in half. (it can be larger if you'd like it to - but expect to receive something this size..) 

3. I'm not big on Monetary Values but am hoping everyone will aim for around $10AUD - just ensure you put effort & creativity into your envelope && I'm sure your partner will be happy.

4. Take photos! && Link back to the blog or #aahnyproject

5. Send something you'd love to receive!

Sweet Notes to A Lovely Lady.

I've come across so many stories throughout my travels that inspire me & make me feel so many different emotions at once. Some stick with me for hours, some days & some I think will stick with me forever. The Story of Ava's Rule is one of them. I actually don't have any words to describe the amazing Ava, Sheye & their family so you'd best go read it in Sheye's own words at her beautiful blog here. After spending a few hours lost in the world of Ava Rosemeyer - Super Princess I reached out to Sheye the best way I know how. Handwritten Love Letters. Here is the little package I sent her, I hope it gave her back a little of the light and love that she has given the world.
