Dressing Up Your Snail Mail

Being a Southern lady, I firmly believe in sending a thank you note whenever anyone blesses you with a gift or does something nice for you. And I mean a hand written thank you note. Does anyone else get excited about receiving snail mail, or is that just me? Well, the snail mail that doesn't include junk or bills that is.

Sometimes a letter needs a little dressing up, to give it that extra punch and let the receiver know that you were really thinking of them and took time to put some extra care into their mail. And I have found the perfect Etsy shop to help you out. Check out Paper Plane. The super fantastic Niquelle has created her own one-woman shop full of adorable and quirky cards and oh so cool stamps.

Niquelle dreams up everything you see in her shop and makes it all in house. She comes up with the witty words and designs for her cards, carves her stamps, cuts the paper, prints the cards and makes all the envelopes. Its incredible and I am so excited to introduce her shop to you all. Because she does everything herself, you know that you are getting a quality product. She takes the time to inspect everything and make sure it is to your liking. You can view all of her cool products by clicking on this link to get to her Etsy shop.

Niquelle sent me this awesome initial stamp for me to use with all of my mail and I absolutely love it! I love being able to add an extra personal touch on the outside of the envelope. The stamp added some extra flair to a plain white envelope. And be sure to check out her other stamp offerings - I'm in love with this snail mail stamp. It seriously is so cute. The stamp she sent me is GREAT quality, I know it will last me for a long time and I am just so amazed that she carved it all by hand. That makes ME feel special. So I certainly hope the receivers of my letters feel special too.

And Paper Plane is a green company! All of the paper is recycled and FSC certified from a company that utilies renewable energy. Niquelle reuses her scraps for business cards as well as small note pads for new sketches and testing stamps. So not only do you get to support her and her business, but you can rest easy knowing that you are helping take care of the earth too!

One thing you must know about Niquelle is that she is so easy to work with. She loves to do custom orders and is happy to personalize anything you like. She's super responsive when you contact her and willing to answer your questions to make sure you love the products. I was thrilled to work with her and cannot wait to order some of her adorable cards. I love this card for an anniversary - so cute and clever.
