Think I’ve shown some post box toppers before. They are a ‘thing’ in the UK. Usually made by a group of knitters/crocheters. They often have a theme - usually a royal event, a holiday like Easter or Xmas etc. or are done to commemorate a wartime or similar event . 🧶 #knit #crochet #postboxtoppers
Evening photo of postbox topper on red, round postbox with dark green, flat Christmas trees around the top edge, each with a silver letter from the phrase ‘Merry Christmas’, and a group of figures gathered by a decorated knitted tree with gold star on top, including Santa & Mrs Santa, Mr & Mrs Snowman, an elf next to a door with sign ‘Elves Workshop’, and a seated gingerbread man and teddy.
I do love #postboxToppers - this was not very far away from our house, maybe 2 miles, but thought it really brightened up the dark mornings and evenings… but so well-made! Much admiration for those who create them!
#Gibraltar #Christmas #PostboxToppers 😍 - 04/12 - on a mainly fine day with sunny spells/ hazy sunshine and plenty of cloud coming and going, before closing in later with reports of some evening rain/ drizzle. A freshening West to Southwesterly breeze, but a warmer day than yesterday, Max 17.7C.
Knitting fun things to go on top of post boxes is a thing here in the UK. Here’s a Halloween-themed one near me in Southport 🎃🧶 #knitting #postboxtoppers #knitsky

A post box topper with crocheted bunting and flowers on a residential street
Enjoyed a cycle with Eco Birmingham yesterday from the Hub on the Green and saw this on my ride home. Another delight to add to the list of things I wouldn’t have seen if I hadn’t been on my bike 💚

Far from unique to here but #postboxtoppers have become a thing in the #Falklands
Here is the latest one: a Happy Easter #postboxtopper with an Easter Bunny and daffodils
A basket filled with multi-coloured eggs is surrounded by small rabbits, chicks and hats, all knitted in wool. They sit on a mauve wool base that is edged with daffodils, again knitted in wool. This is attached to the top of the red postbox. Underneath you can see the slot for posting letters plus the times and dates for collections. In the background, beyond the road and a green hedge, a large detached house stands against a blue sky.

Not quite in the same league as the St Albans Yarnbombers who decorate more than 100 postboxes each Christmas with little knitted creations but our town has weighed in with this Easter effort. I think it’s cracking. I just hope it doesn’t rain.
