Description:

By far my favorite part of penpalling is decorating the envelope, so I wanted to create a swap that hinges on that aspect of mail art. For this swap you will decorate an envelope with scrap paper, ephemera, stickers, washi tape, doodles, etc, all pertaining to a specific theme. You may decorate the envelope with whatever materials you like but do not just sticker slap. For inspiration I would recommend Brittany McCowan's Youtube channel, or penpal Instagram, and if you're interested you can find the link to my mail art Instagram on my profile.

This swap will revolve around the theme of...VINTAGE๐Ÿ—๏ธ

Include in your decorated envelope a flat goodie (or two) that fits the theme for your partner and a brief letter/note answering the following questions: What's your favorite era of history and why? Do you have a favorite period movie? What's something you remember from growing up that isn't really a thing now?

I will be taking a look at profiles and ratings and vetting as/if needed. If I see you have not sent your swap out in the mail by the deadline I'll shoot you a message to see why that is. I'm willing to angel but just make sure if there is a problem you reach out to your partner if you haven't received/can't send your items to attempt to find a resolution before reaching out to me. Please be mindful of the deadlines and communicate with the coordinator and your partner as needed! Please rate kindly and fairly. If the envelope you receive is a real piece of art I encourage you to give a heart (but of course that's up to you). Thank you!
