Today is Justin's birthday! He's celebrating by taking a nap right now and I'm staring lovingly at my wrapping job on his presents.



I got him a bunch of really cool stuff ( 4/5 presents handmade, thank you very much! ).. I wish he'd wake up so  he could open them!

Last night while I was on the phone with my sister ( I miss America! ) I came up with this new product for my shop! I really like it

Also, I want to thank everyone who entered to win the Bread of Many giveaway on the Bright Side Project! It was so much fun reading all the answers people gave.. and it put me in such a good mood, that I've come up with a little ( big! ) deal for you all!

WANT/NEED : FOR THE CORRESPONDENCE OBSESSED


{ via weheartit }

I've had this little obsession with vintage mailboxes brewing inside me for a few months, it's one of those things I am dying to collect and yet I haven't gotten any further than oohing and aahing over etsy listings..


{ via flickr }

which is pretty much what I was just doing, ha..

check these puppies out -- they're not even terribly pricey! ( new new new years resolution : stop being lazy! shell out for a dang mailbox! )




1. Mid-Century Modern Mailbox - Austin Modern - $45
2. Vintage Mailbox - Mareo - $21
3. Vintage Brass Mailbox - storybook charm - $19
4. French Vintage Metal Mailbox - Just Me, Justine - $19.99
5. Box of Envy - Els treasures - $42



JUST THINK of the organization possibilities! I'd like to hang them all up on an office wall next to each other.. maybe to organize mail (duh) or paperwork for different jobs..

sigh.

I MISS YOU GUYS! { SO HERE'S A FREEBIE! }

Hello dear deer readers,

I have been totally slacking on the blogging tip, I know, BUT DO YOU KNOW : that I have been working on a website? Yes it's true. Ready yourselves.

{ &the blog will be a-movin when it comes! }


By the by, I suck at making websites, haha. So who knows when it will be ready. We'll see. I'm presently redefining the phrase "playing it by ear" ...

*****

Also, as is my wont when I'm feeling at all guilty, I have a freeeeeeebie for you today! Yay!

but first : SOME ANNOUNCEMENTS!

  • did you know Bread of Many is a seller in the current Paper n Stitch market? You didn't?? GO LOOK!!!

{ click-the-pic to check it out! }


  • I'm very excited to announce that Bread of Many will be participating in this year's Handmade Cambridge craft fair on 5th December!! { my very first!! } so if you're British { and nice } come out and say hi!!!
{ click-the-pic 4more info }


  • Bread of Many is now sponsoring one of the more fun blogs on the internet, Freckled Nest! If you haven't had a looksie, take one now.. if you have, take another!
{ click-the-pic to et cetera et cetera }


  • More really exciting fun stuff is on the way... really it is!! Don't touch that dial! ..or you know what I mean...

ok, ok.. onto the GOODS. yeah! b-t-dubs, I really really like this.. I've already used it twice! I hope you all will L-O-V-E it!

AND NOW, for your downloading pleasure, Bread of Many has designed for you :

STITCH IT UP, BABY!
..a darling stationery set!


now, lookee here! you get 2 different stationery sheets, one to start your correspondence on {get it, because it says "hello" ... } and one to continue your correspondence on. These are A5 sized (since I'm in England now!)... it's a very good letter size, actually...


also of note is the folded note card.. I intentionally left it blank so that you could fill in whatever message best suited your occasion. Hear that? It's versatile!


Let me know what you think of these, because I'm thinking of developing stationery sets to sell on my Bread of Many Etsy shop.. and enjoy!!
