Hi everyone! It has been a while since I have logged onto here but letter update!

Uni has been on my butt as of recently (being pre-med is no joke) so I have not been able to mail anything BUT I did snag a lot of stamps!!! I was helping my dad clean out this house when I found a stackkkkk of stamps. We were given the green light to take anything we wanted from the home so I snagged the stamps among some envelopes, writing pads, and other cards. They were both national stamps and international ones, so I saved myself some 40 or so bucks on stamps hehehe. If anyone has ideas on how I could use the notepads and cards, please drop them in the comments!

Lots of love, cookie.

wait that is actually really cool. My bf is moving soon (not internationally), and I was thinking of starting to send letters. Buttt doesnt it cost a bit?

But yeah, stickers, maybe polaroids? would be cute. If you took photos of ur town and shared w ur international friends (tho film is not cheapp.. u could print photos!)!! little drawings (even if u dont draw much)... different pen colours, small trinkets, origami? Oh, pressing plants and flowers u see around u in books, and then using them to decorate ur letter!

It depends on what u send! Sending a normal less-than-one-ounce letter should be less than a dollar (82 cents). If u want to send something bigger, it is going to be more. I recommend checking the rates on the USPS website and getting the forever stamps if u plan on sending letters over time.

I def am thinking about sending printed photos and I love the pressing plants/flowers idea! I'll just have to double check with international regulations on the pens and small trinkets since that would count as a package butttt those are really good ideas, thank yewww :P
