I’m sure you’ve all seen the cute little $1 mailboxes in Target’s dollar bins.
have I mentioned I LOVE Target Dollar Bins!
I’ve already seen some really cute ones around blog land. I bought mine a few weeks ago and finally got around to dressing it up a little. I thought it would be fun to drop a little “love” note in the mailbox each day leading up to Valentines.
I found this super cute paper at the scrapbook store and decided it would be perfect to cover the mailbox. I simply traced the lid and mailbox and then cut it out.
I also needed to cut a hole to fit the paper around the screw. After that I modpodged the paper on and added a few cute embellishments.
Then I wrote my first love note… :)
I’ve seen these stuck on candlesticks as well which looks super cute…
Aren’t these little mailboxes so cute?! I think it’s a fun way to surprise your Love each day. Get Creative! ;)
These would also be a fun to fill with chocolates and give as a gift. YuMmY!

So cute!
I bought one of these too and decorated it. I cut out "love notes" in vinyl and put it on the front and put it on our island so me and the hubby can swap notes to each other.

I love how your Target mailbox turned out! We are doing the same idea in our Happy Home – even the Happy Hubby decorated his own mailbox. It is absolutely hilarious because he was trying to protect his manhood while doing crafts at the same time.
You can see a pic of his mailbox HERE – http://happyhomefairy.com/2011/01/21/the-25-days-of-love-fun-day-2-valentine-mailboxes/
You are super inspiring by the way you pour so much energy and time into building your Happy Home. Thank you for being so faithful to share with us!
