The Post Box

Are you an individual with a big personality? If so, you probably love being different, and trying to stand out from the crowd. Well, here’s another way to do that—decorate your postbox! Why not make it a statement of your creativity and personality? Here are some ideas on how to decorate a postbox or letter box.

First, gather together some craft materials. You can use stickers, vinyl cling-ons, paints, glitter glue, and anything that you could glue onto the postbox or draw onto it with.

Now, get some ideas down on paper. Do a rough sketch of what you have in mind so that you can work from it with your final design. That way you will make fewer mistakes and you will have a basic idea of how your letter box will look when it’s finished.

If you want to do a flower/garden theme, you could use flower stickers and paint stems and blaids of grass with green paint. Be sure to use waterproof paint, or go over the whole box with a waterproof finish when you are done so it won’t be spoiled by the weather.

Another idea is to paint the outside with little windows and doors as if it were a house or barn. You could even paint little animal faces looking out of the windows of your barn.

Bring a smile to the faces of everyone who sees your new post box. Be creative, colourful, and express your personality to the world.

If you are planning to buy a letter box for your house or flat, you may be unsure of what type of box to buy, or where to buy it. Here are some ideas and suggestions to help you decide form a variety of letterboxes.

First, find a company that offers a good variety of choice, such as Mailbox Mania. They offer many different styles, sizes, shapes, and colours of letterboxes.

Now, figure out what kind of letterbox you need. Do you get a newspaper delivered? If so, you will want a box large enough to hold your post along with a newspaper. Do you have parcels delivered? Again, you’ll need a large box. Do you like traditional looking boxes? You may want a red one or a stainless steel one. Or, if you want a modern looking one, you could ven choose a plastic one.

Decide what will look good on your gate, fence, door, or the side of your house. For instance, if you have a red door, a red box might look good — but then it might also be harder for the postman to spy from the road and he might not realize you have a box. Choose a colour that is visible but that you think looks good.

Mailbox Mania offers letter boxes in the following colours: red, green, black, white, silver, and stainless steel. There should be something for everyone.

Once you find the box you like, simply purchase, and have it put up on your door or gate, or wherever you want it mounted. If you need permission first, make sure to obtain it.

Keeping your correspondence safe is just as important whether you live in a building with three other flats, or a hundred others. With identity fraud on the rise, it might not even be your neighbours you have to look out for, but any number of visitors or contractors that might pass through your building.

Many smaller apartment blocks, and even some larger ones, still do not have individual mailboxes, but instead have a single letter box and let each occupant collect their own mail from the jumbled pile scattered across the floor or stuffed into a recess. If you want to keep your items safe, purchasing – or insisting upon being supplied – your own personal letter box is essential.

Multi-occupancy mailboxes are available in many styles, designed specifically to fit in or outside of any communal dwelling, whether you need two or two hundred. They can be attached to any wall or fitted into any recess meaning that gaining security doesn’t mean you necessarily have to lose a great deal of space. There is also the option to purchase predesigned versions for those who don’t want to have to choose separate letter boxes, surrounds and fixings.

Whatever your needs, Mailbox Mania can meet any requirements you may have, whether you need them freestanding, recessed or wall fixed. There are a wide range of colours to suit any colour scheme and a range of sizes to suit anyone, bringing you great quality, making your life that little bit simpler and giving you peace of mind all at the same time.

Mailboxes don’t have to be masculine monstrosities. For those living off the beaten track, or simply those with a flavour for something a little more interesting and less intrusive than cutting a big hole in the front door, mailboxes can be both a practical answer and one that lends character to your garden and property.

While larger, stainless steel letterboxes might be more practical in terms of holding larger items and surviving any weather our fickle country might throw at it, they aren’t always particularly easy on the eye. If you are more interested in keeping the look of your carefully manicured garden in tact, then there are plenty of more rustic looking letterboxes that are equally tough against the weather.

Going for a more classic or interesting look, doesn’t have to mean you have to try and find something made a hundred years ago from rotting wood and tree sap. There are plenty of great quality items made from cast aluminium which are hard-wearing, attractive and versatile. For those with an eye for something more kitsch and quirky, there is also a range of US style mailboxes which are both durable and weatherproof, complete with the red flag to indicate when mail is ready to be collected.

Whatever style you need, we at Mailbox Mania are sure to have everything you need to ensure that neither looks nor practicality are overlooked and rather than being a blot on the landscape, your mailbox could add just the right amount of class that you are looking for.
