a reason i love snail mail

Not many people seem to use the postal service much anymore. Everything is instant, and while it is convenient for quick communication, I still love sending and receiving letters.

One of my favorite things about sending letters is decorating the envelope. The envelope is a blank canvas, and it looks all too dull with nothing but the addresses and a stamp on it. 

Even if you don't consider yourself the most creative person, give it a try. Send a letter to your parents, sibling(s), or friends and take the time to decorate the envelope. It makes it more festive and would brighten the day of anyone who receives it. 

There is a page on pinterest about decorated envelopes. If you're looking for some ideas or would like to just check some out, you should definitely take a look at this website.

  1. I appreciate snail mail so much. With all of the technology these days, people really don't appreciate a good handwritten letter.

  2. I've only received a few handwritten letters in my life and it is always so special to receive one. This is a great way to personalize your envelope!
