Somebody Loves You - Sewing project

Somebody Loves You




For Valentine's Day I wanted to come up with something more interesting than you basic hearts or flowers.  I liked the whimsical idea of a mailbox shaped valentine being sent through the mail to an actual mailbox. 

I started making tiny mail, which was super cute just on it's own. 



As I was making the mailbox I thought it would be fun to make it a magnet to hold real mail. 
The magnets I found weren't as strong as I would have liked, but it did hold the mailbox to the refrigerator.  


In total I made eight little felt mailboxes in about three days, spending about $10 on craft supplies. 







Next time I'll be on the look out for a even stronger magnet. And maybe price them at around $5 or $8 dollars each.
