So have you pimped up your postbox? If so, we'd love to see a picture and hear the story behind it for a feature on Homed... Did you create it from scratch or repurpose a household item? What was the inspiration for your design? And how have people reacted to it?
You can email your letterbox photos to homed@stuff.co.nz and someone will be in touch - and thanks in advance!
