A few weeks ago I had to leave for work early on a Sunday morning and I was seriously pi$$ed that I had to drive to Geelong after a late one the night before. By the time I arrived I was still completely feeling sorry for myself until I spied the most random workshop right there in front of the venue. It was called iron and wood or something like that, and since our garden has a rustic flavour, I popped in on the off chance that they made letterboxes. It must have been fate, coz they'd only JUST carved this massive hunk of redgum in half.
I reckon there's going to be people who share our love for it, people who point and laugh and people who are too polite to tell us we've lost the plot. Are you brave enough to tell us which category you fit into?
Introducing our new mail box...

| This is how she looked before becoming a mail box! |
I leant a few lessons that day. Sometimes you have to trust that you're in exactly the place you're meant to be & that a Holden Cruze is a lot roomier than it looks.

OMG I love your mail box..... it looks so cool..... LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!!!!
I'm in the love it category...great find, suits your garden perfectly; just need a critter to call that hole 'home'.
now thats what I say thinking differently...ur letterbox totally goes with ur landscape theme and is looking freaking awesome.
Ha ha bloody amazing, and so befitting of your garden too, sometimes things are meant to be and your piece od rectum is definitely in that category, well done!
Bloody predictive text, should read red gum!!!!! LMAO!!
ROFLMAO Janine!!! Rectum. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
A very unique letterbox :-)
My husband would love that, his an arborist (tree man) lol!
Mel :-(
OMG I am so so jealous. I have been looking for something just the same for us!!! Definitely in the LOVE category.
Love your letterbox, it's sooo cool! Would not suit my house but it's not going there anyway. You will be remembered by by passers and postie that's for sure;)

Very nice, love it... though the perspective on the second shot makes it look like the letterbox is not vertical - If it's the same in real life (and from the other direction) , it is going to mess with the postie's mind!
First a Big LOL to Janine's comment that is gold!!!
And WOW Reinsey that letter box is amazing you have Tristan wanting one, we absolutley love it, definatly the best letter box we have ever seen!!!!
HUGE fan!
@Debra, if you hadn't mentioned the typo my wife would have just accepted it as some foreign/Latin saying.... and wouldn't have burst out in random fits of laughter either; thanks!
Huge LOVE!! You won't see another one like that in the estate and so suits the house
