Hello! Nice to meet you! :)

I love writing. I have spent over 30 years journaling alone, and now I run a snail mail group where we gather together to write letters to pen pals, exchange paper goods, and do paper crafts. I love everything about snail mail from writing the letter or postcard to decorating the envelope and finding the perfect vintage stamps to finish it off!

I am basically obsessed with snail mail, so I love stationery paper, note cards, flat cards, postcards, stickers, washi tape, notebooks, pens, stationery sets, unique or handmade envelopes, scrapbook papers, envelope labels, stamps etc. I love things related to mail or postage, especially vintage type stuff.
