We are excited to introduce our next Creative Team member to you today. Please give a warm welcome to Cheryl from A Pretty Cool Life. 🙂 I’m almost positive I discovered Cheryl on instagram first and fell quickly in love with her eye candy she posts there. I just know we’re all going to enjoy each and every thing she shares with us!
I love quick and easy ways to brighten friends’ and family members’ days {especially for holidays!} and sending a little fun in the mail is one of my favorite ways to do it.
When I learned that you can mail treats in their actual packaging as long as they’re 13 ounces or less my world changed…so many possibilities! 🙂
So after sending treats for Halloween and Easter, I figured it was high time I spread some love with Valentine snail mail.
I picked up a few boxes of candy at Target for about $1 a piece. I just love the heart shaped Junior Mints…my 2 year old had her eye {and teeny hand} on the M&Ms!!
Then I cut labels for addresses {and even though it takes up valuable space, the clerks at the post office have told me that a package must have a return address to be sent…} and dolled them up with a little washi tape. {and we all know washi tape is cute but not very sticky…make sure to secure your labels properly with a glue stick or real tape!}
In the past postage for movie theater size boxes of candy has been about $2…I’ll be heading to the post office to double check and then deck them out in pretty heart stamps.
I just love sending this kind of happy mail…and I hope everyone I send it to does too! Happy Valentine’s Day!!
xoxo
Cheryl
