mail tag: christmas edition.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the Way!

Time to start thinking of getting those Christmas cards and letters out in the mail if you haven't already done so. (My christmas cards have been in the mail for a while now, but there is still plenty of time for me to send my lovely penpals Christmas letters).

Here are some Christmas/Holiday inspired "Mail Tag" questions for you to include in your next letter:

• Do you prefer to wrap your gifts in wrapping paper or gift bags?

• Real Tree vs. Fake Tree

• Christmas/Holiday Traditions?

• Do you open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Morning?

• Favorite gift you have ever received?

• Favorite Christmas song?

• Colored Lights vs. White Lights

• Do you kiss under the Mistletoe?

• Favorite Christmas Ornament? Why?

• What is your typical Christmas Dinner?

• Stockings hung by the chimney with care?

If you have any more questions you think would be good for a Christmas/Holiday Mail Tag, I would love to hear them!

I am so very excited to introduce my very first zine!

I have been wanting to put together a letter/mail themed zine for a long time now, and I finally have! It is available for sale in my etsy shop for the great low price of $1.50 plus shipping. 

The zine is 6 pages printed on white 20lb paper. It features fun facts and information dealing with mail! It is perfect for any mail lover in your life. 

Be on the lookout for more volumes to hit my etsy shop in the future.

Have you heard of mail tag? Do you participate in mail tag with your penpals?
I read about it on Papered Thoughts and thought it was such a neat idea and wanted to start participating in it with my penpals. I know I get stumped with things to ask, so I thought it would be a good idea to do a post that included some ideas.

Mail tag is an exchange of postal correspondence between two people. One person mails requests to their penpal, who then answers those and sends back their own mail tag. Ask as few or as many things in each request that you want!

Don't know where to start? Here are some ideas to get you started!

• What is your favorite quote?

• What would your last meal be?

• What is your current nail polish color?

• What are four things on your bucket list?

• What is in your purse?

• If you could have dinner with any five people, who would they be?

• What is your first job?

• What is your favorite book?

• What is your favorite childhood memory?

• Summer or Winter?

• Do you believe in ghosts?

• Who inspires you?

• A list of things that make you feel cozy?

• A receipt.

• A business card.

• Two things you were grateful for this week
