Look what I received! Advent Calendar update

Look what I just got in the mail!

I mean, I knew that Aya had already sent her package - but that was on Saturday (well, the post was on Friday, that's right, but the sticker said November 17th - and now it's November 20th! So, I guess it came flying here on Sunday, then got send from Frankfurt to Saarbrücken yesterday and I received it today in the morning at 11 am)! Who knew that the package would travel all the way from Japan to Germany in only 4 days with a weekend in between? I am amazed. Not only by the travel speed, but also by the package itself! Let's have a look at it...

First, I took off all the papers because I don't want to show either mine nor Ayas address here :)

After taking of the wrapping paper and the bubble wrap I came to see this christmas themed box...

The first look inside!


After taking out the goodies from her "Fumi no hi" giveaway project which lucky me won :) I am so looking forward to December now! And it's all wrapped beatifully :)

Sadly, I can't unwrap all the presents by now... But I had a look at the goodies she sent me! Ooooh I was jumping around with excitement :)

70 paper stamps to use as letter seals or in scrapbooking projects.

A few (some of them self-adhesive) labels - aren't they lovely?

At first I wasn't quite sure what this flower is....

but it's a neat stationery! You can unfold it and then there's writing space inside :)

Christmas themed stickers!

I love these! I just realized that you can't really see that much here - these are some envelopes and postcards and there's also lots of writing paper in the backe (you can see some of it next to the moomin-envelopes. I'm so looking forward to writing letters with this!

Can you see what this is? It's washi tape! Oh my, I am so incredibly happy. 

Aya also included a brochure with many nice pictures of Japan (the leaves are so colorful!) but the photo turned out very blurry, so I can't show it here.

I am so so happy with the package! Thank you so much Aya! And I'm so much looking forward to the Calendar now!


Did you already receive your calendar?

Alles Liebe, Caddi

    1. Hey Kelsey,
      there was some trouble with post offices, delayed payments and hospitals included - they are all sent now and I just hope that they arrive safe and sound! With some countries like Romania or Greece you can never be sure about postal luck...
