We were thinking for ages what to have for a wedding post box. Until we discovered someone else had made one out of lego. Challenge accepted!

It has taken a lot of bricks (and I haven't seen the OH all week) but we are nearly there.

It is a big secret and so he can't show off about it so I'm doing it on his behalf. He is very proud, it's mighty cute. He's even made a lock and key.

Sorry the pictures are sideways!

Wow! Thanks for all your comments he will be chuffed.

We are not really having a theme so haven't got lego anywhere else, but OH loved the idea and it has been a great project for him. Im away this weekend and I keep getting sent updates. It is almost finished! We just need a few more bricks (warning, if you want to give it a go, it takes nearly 2000!!!)

He did it from pictures. He found the measurements of post boxes online and then planned it out. Next he took it all apart to add an opening and locking door. Clever man!!!

I reckon it will, but don't know if we'll hear them all so his idea is to put a go pro camera just to film their reactions. Ego much???

Good luck! You are going to need a lot of bricks. We used a couple of thousand.

My OH says to have a look at Pinterest or our one to see how it was made to,give you s bit of a guide.

Depends when your wedding is, you could always borrow ours...
