Boston Era Mail

awesome package from Karen of http://iamrushmore.blogspot.com/
 It was a giveaway that I won. I believe you had to tell a joke to enter. Several awesome little zines.

A Jennie Hinchcliff postcard

 

Some outgoing

I bought a set of letter stencils while I was in Boston. The smallest ones I can't even use because I don't have a pencil or pen small enough to make the letters.  We had one of these when I was a kid as well as some stencils of barn animals and things like that. I loved the horse one, of course.



I've been hanging on to a bunch of security envelopes that I've gotten here in IL, but I still haven't done anything with them.  Most of them were ripped open, so I'll have to use them for something else than turning inside out.


This plaid green sticker selvage came from some Curious George stickers.  I can't bear to throw away a sticker sheet with a background like this when all the stickers are gone. I think it turned out quite nicely.

    1. Oh Bonnie I hope you get it! I think it might be lost in the mail if you never got that one. I sent that when I was still in Boston over 2 months ago. :( Recently a piece of mail from around the same time was returned to me... so I'm not sure what went wrong. I'll write you again soon.
