Our month of letters

I love getting mail....not bills but handwritten letters from family and friends. These days a special delivery in the post is few and far between.  My children always write thank you letters to gifts they receive...I  do not want them to lose the beauty of handwriting and sending via 'snail mail.'  My youngest son (8 years ) also has a penpal in Ireland.  We all  love receiving a special handwritten letter in the mailbox.

This month we are participating in The month of letters challenge (we are little late but will catch up!).
The challenge is simple....

  1. In the month of February, mail at least one item through the post every day it runs.  Write a postcard, a letter, send a picture, or a cutting from a newspaper, or a fabric swatch.
  2. Write back to everyone who writes to you. This can count as one of your mailed items.

You can write to us at
PO Box 917 Surry Hills NSW 2010

If you would like a postcard from us email me at info@artsrocket.org with your postal address.
