I found this awesome roll of book wrapping paper in a thrift store in Stockholm two weeks ago and have been looking for a way to use it since. Then I needed an envelope to put my newest letter to my friend Lova in, and voilà! (The lovely letter in the last photo is from her.) I love snail mail, I already can't wait for the next letter!

Jag köpte den här fantastiska rullen bokpapper på Myrorna i Stockholm för ett par veckor sen och har letat efter användningsområden sedan dess. Så behövde jag ett kuvert att stoppa mitt senaste brev till min vän Lova i, och voilà! (Det finfina brevet i sista bilden är från henne.) Det är fantastiskt att få så fina brev, längtar redan efter nästa!

    Yay! Snail mail is not dead at all:) It warms my heart when folks still love getting mail through the post. There's something so personal, so tangible about it.

    Annika: stämpeln är en sån som man bygger själv med bokstäver, finns att köpa på kontorsvaruhus!
