With the ok from @Tommy123 & @wokeupmissing to use this great idea, so I thought we would do it.

In the spirit of Keri Smith's Wreck This Journal, we're going to take a 6x9 kraft envelope and wreck it... .use it as a coaster &/or placemat (spill something on it). .write the same word over and over again on it. .rip it up and put it back together. .put holes in it with an object of your choosing. .take it in the shower with you. .take a nap with it. .use it as a shoe to go check the mail. .trace your hand &/or foot. .use it to take notes on for a few days.

The options are endless, really. If you do something to it that makes it almost fall apart, please also do something to it that will make it have a chance of making it through the mail system.

Once you're satisfied with your destruction, add a note about your experience with the envelope, as well as a flat surprise, seal it up and ship it off.

This is sender's choice, however, taking a peak at your partner's profile is never a bad idea...why send something to someone that they aren't going to get any joy from?

Everyone in the group can join but PLEASE NO FLAKING.

As always, if you have any questions or suggestions please leave a comment or shoot me a message.
