Welcome to Lovely Letters, a monthly snail mail exchange where you can make international pen friends. :) This month I am hosting with Jordan! We’ve grown to over 100 participants in 12 countries so far in our blog community since last May. Though you don’t have to participate every month, we highly encourage you to at least meet a few new bloggers in this space. :)
You can sign up for your blogger pals every last Saturday of each month until the 6th. We try our best to pair you with someone in a different country or at least from a different part of your country. See all the previous exchanges here if you want to get a better idea of what the swaps look like.
This month I was paired with Sonya who is the DIY queen, and you can learn quite a bit about jewelry making on her blog. I used to dabble in making jewelry too back in the day, but it’s been such a long time that I need a refresh my memory. Other than DIY, we both share a love for travel and reading, and she gave me many more suggestions to add to my already long queue of places to visit and books to read. :)
The [GREEN THEMED] package I sent:
handmade earrings (not made by me)
my fave kind of pen in the color green
green travel notebook
green tea kit kats
some asian snacks packaged in green
postcard from my latest travels
one lovely letter
Will update you on the package I received soon! :)
