summer mail time

It has been a good month or so since I've come back home from college. With all of this free time in my hands I have been trying to start snail mailing more passionately so that I can reach my goal of sending 100 total things via snail mail. Here's a couple quick things that I've sent over the past couple weeks:

I participated in a swap-bot swap that was centered around mail art and using postage stamps which was fun. My favorite one to make was probably the one with the pansy drawn on it.

I also made a tiny card to send to my friend Irene since her birthday was coming up!

I also put together a little parcel to send to my friend Lizzie. Filled with good coffee beans from intelligentsia and things that I picked up along the way.

this was a map of the Field Museum along with my short comments on the exhibits haha.

Inside Lizzie's parcel was also a badge I painted. I completely forgot to take a picture of it, but Lizzie sent me a snapchat of the lil' badge pinned onto an ~official Barnard lab coat :D

Lately, my favorite crafting activity is to make little badges. Here's a couple that I painted.

That's about it! There were a couple more letters that I sent that unfortunately were deleted from my phone because I'm a big doofus. But that's how my summer crafting/snail mailing has been going on so far!
