Celebrating the release of the May Gibbs 100th Anniversary Stamp release from Australia Post we decided our little bush babies needed their own little bush fairies letter box. Collect a few sticks from the backyard or local park and you're ready to start.

You will need:

• Small sticks

• Small Rock

• Gumnuts or gum blossoms

• Cardboard

• Scissors

• Hot glue gun

Make Your Own Bush Fairy Letterbox

Instructions:

Step 1:

Cut a small piece of card and roll, this will become the frame for your letterbox.

Step 2:

Break up some small sticks into the length you want for your letterbox. You will also need a few longer sticks for the post of the letterbox.

Step 3:

Glue the sticks around your card using the hot glue gun. You now have your letterbox. You also need to glue on your letterbox post - we used two slightly bigger sticks to make it a bit stronger.

Step 4:

To help the letterbox stand up we hot glued the letter box post to a rock and we added a little flower blossom to help our letter box stand out to the bush fairy postie.

Step 5:

Place your letterbox in the garden for the bush fairies to receive their mail!
