Lovely parcel from Anofeles



Jane Austen notebook, paper pencils in holder, lovely oriental money box, rosehips and glass bowl

Love it all - many thanks ;0)

[Anofeles]

I'm happy you got the parcel finally, it sometimes takes ages for post.. And I'm even happier that you like it!
Everything (except the bowl and the rose-hips, of course) is made of recycled paper Unfortunately it made the money box a little strange shaped :/ You know, wet paper

[holistic knitter]

the money box is my favourite

I received a Wonderful package from Dontdresslikeaapril!

First up -some beautiful reusable paper towels in fun, bright prints!


Then 2 lovely wet bags!  I love the patterns and know these will come in very handy!  I am super impress becuase A) I suck at putting in zippers and B) the PUL lining is hard to work with!


And the piece de resistance   What is this little bag I am holding?


It's an amazing paperback book holder!  disguising my poor taste in reading   I don't know if you can see the lovely decorative stiching, but the book holder is so great now I can frugally buy beat up 25 cent books and read them instyle!

Thank you, Thank you Dontdresslikeapril!

Ow, I just decided I need a book holder, although I don't really know why It looks so cute

Today I got an awesome parcel from holistic knitter, so I'll send the photos in the evening

I love the book holder too.

Glad your parcel arrived Anofeles - sorry you've had to wait

[Anofeles]

It's absolutely ok, waiting doesn't hurt And it really brightened my day.

Here we go:


A notebook with my science idol-Darwin- and his famous turtles from Galapagos. The metal part can open so I can refill it when it's full ^^



Two bags. Until summer holiday I'll be using the big one for textbooks and snacks for school and the small one for some little tools for lab.


A money box


I saw this kind of bookmarks only here in galleries but never had one. It's so handy and looks far more elegant then the paper ones! I love it


Here in action with my very new Dekameron.


A bottle for tap water with Welsh text (which is cool)

There was also a rugby pencil and a beautiful rubber with Welsh dragon, but the camera didn't make it :/
Thank you, Lynda, it was an awesome package! ^^

ohh that bookmark is awesome!
Also what in the world are you studying anofeles? I assume it's some college book, looks like genetics actually. Pretty neat if it is so.
