letter writing
Incoming mail from Heather
Heather in Scotland made her own envelope and sent this letter and postcard of a “Japanese Lady with a Fan” (1894). When I found the letter in my mailbox it had a plastic envelope covering her mail. I guess Canada Post took the time to make sure that the contents didn’t fall out of the original handmade packaging.
The postcard on this image was originally oil on canvas by George Henry (1858-1943). Heather’s writing is beautiful and it was a surprise to hear from her. Thank you! I’m so happy that this letter made it to me in one piece!

Letter Writing Club in Vancouver
“The Regional Assembly of Text” is a stationery shop located in Vancouver. What struck me about this shop is that they have a letter writing club. I bet the owners, Brandy and Rebecca, like to send and receive letters just as much as you do!
They have an invite on their website: “Join us in Vancouver the first Thursday of every month at 7pm. No need to sign up ahead of time. Everyone welcome. No cost. Supplies provided.” I am drawn by this work station. All of these typewriters and stationery supplies? What a dream.
I will definitely be joining this club when I move to Vancouver at the end of the year.
