Cute Little Spreaders and Vintage Business Cards and More

Went to the post box and what did I find? This is what was in my box!

I was tickled by those little spreaders and so were my kids. My husband made first dibs on the hazelnut chocolate square and I got the mint one. Yum mint is my favorite.

This is what I sent via the post office:

Cute vintage business cards and address labels, simple but I think they are pretty. The labels were adorable too puppy dogs and cut flowers with lady bugs. I like them so much bought a set of the stickers for my use as well.

52 Weeks, 52 Letters Project

I am a bit late starting this but I will start my week one this week. We have not had any mail since last Monday so I hope we have mail today, but it depends on the weather. The 52 Weeks, 52 Letters project has inspired me to get writing.
I do ask that my kids write thank you but have to admit I have not written a letter snail mail in a while, so I think this one will be one I will enjoy much.

“One piece of “real” mail sent out each week. It can be a letter, a postcard, a care package, a thank you note, handmade art, etc. I’m searching for all of the cards and stationary I have collected over the years and gathering them into one place with pens, envelopes (regular & padded), lots of stamps (.28 & .44), a glue stick, unlined index cards (great for making postcards), and a few USPS Small Flat Rate boxes. Oh, and I’m updating my address book.”

I love this. There’s just something about writing an honest pen on paper letter that’s very centering. It forces you to be in the moment. Present. Focused. No multitasking, just writing.

I am going to write 52 letters in 2011. Not necessarily to 52 different people, and I imagine that many of them will actually live in the same city as I do. I invite you to join this challenge. Write to those you’ve lost contact with and write to those you chat with on a daily basis. Write to your spouse, maybe even your own children.
