The Souvenir Society


The other week I got some mail, I was waiting on a couple of items but neither matched the size of this package. So I was super delighted when I opened it and realised I had won a competition from The Souvenir Society! I honestly had to trace back to eventually figure out my win was through an online newsletter called Four Thousand. (I may or may not enter way too many competitions!)

If you are an Aussie I say definitely check out The Thousands, each state is allocated a number (Brisbane gets four) and then it's a weekly newsletter sent out which showcases what's on in your area, plus lots of other random things including giveaways! 

Anyway I digress, The Souvenir Society (where my winnings came from) is an online shop based in Melbourne, Australia selling items to help make your gift wrapping super beautiful. When I opened my package I couldn't stop oo'hing and ahh'ing as everything was so nicely presented!

It's definitely been a good few weeks of surprise mail for me! 

Inside my package was a furoshiki (cloth wrap) some glittery twine and some lovely gift tags!

Coming soon to a present near you!

I selflessly kept this wrap and it's now hanging up on my wall :) I also love it's intended purpose to wrap presents too!

Super great surprise!


Thank-you Four thousand and The Souvenir Society - you made my day :)

  8. FYI Brisbane gets 'four thousand' because it corresponds to all the postcodes in Qld. Like Melbourne gets 'three thousand' and so on and so forth. I hope you didn't know already because then my presence in your life would be superfluous xemaya
