What is more enjoyable then reading a pretty letter as you enjoy a nice cup of tea? I love writing letters and I have so many pretty letter sets that are just waiting to be used instead of sitting in a dusty old box on the shelf. So I decided to host a series of swaps, called "A Pretty Letter and A Cuppa". There will be 4 rounds and if you participate in all four rounds you will have written 20 letters in one month. Doesn't that sound fun? This round is for MAY 23 THRU MAY 27 Requirements: You will have 5 partners. One letter per partner. One letter per day. (Monday thru Friday) You don't have to mail each day, you can write all week and then mail your letters out on Saturday. It's up to you. I have to drive to a post office to mail my letters since our town has no street delivery/pickup so I will be mailing weekly. You must use a letter set. A letter set is a matching set of paper and envelope. Usually a letter set consists of 1 to 2 pieces of decorated paper with a coordinating envelope. Size of Letter set does not matter. I have both 8 1/2 x 10 sets and smaller 5.5 x 6 inch sets so you can use whatever. Letter must be 1 page both sided or 2 front pages. You can write more if you wish but two pages is the requirement. (see above). This is not a introduction letter. Pretend as if you already know the person and are just writing to them again. If you need an example of what I mean, see the comments section below. :) Last but not least, please enclose a factory sealed tea bag in your letter and mail out to your partners. RECAP: 5 letters -- 5 partners. Letter set 2 pages. Not an introduction letter. Enclose a tea bag Send daily or weekly, depending on preference/ability. UPDATE: I wanted to make sure that everyone understood that this is NOT an imaginary letter. I wanted to clear up the confusion. I think some folks are thinking you are "pretending" the person you are writing to is someone else. That is NOT what I meant by the "pretend you already know the person." What I meant is that don't start your letter with a introduction, write like you've been writing for ages. |
