Lettermo is over + Incoming

Today, March 30, my first Lettermo has officially come to an end!
It's time for some stats:


 I think it's quite a remarkable goal for just a month! And just to let you all know, I was happy with every single bit of paper that you sent me :3

Unfortunately, I don't have the pictures of the last letters that went out for the Lettermo early this week; I wasn't at my place and I didn't have the camera with me. Anyway, they were for: Kelly, my new penpal from Canada; Iris, and two for some girls from swapbot.
Today's letter, and the very last for the Lettermo, went out for Neda:


I've also received some pretty mail this week (under the cut!).

Request A Letter: April

Sooo, my first month of Lettermo will end tomorrow, and I've already decided to repeat this experience next month. To get a head start, I'm already accepting requests in case you want to receive something from me! This time I'll take 9 requests only, bacause I've some swaps to do and moreover, this is quite an expensive hobby ಥ_ಥ
Before requesting a letter, please read here what is this about, then you can click here to go ahead with the request EDIT: I've already received all the requests, so please don't send anymore! If you're interested, stick around coz I'll be doing it next month ;) If you alrready requested one on march, please don't sign up. The form will stop working as soon as I get the maximum number of requests, so if you click and it doesn't work, then you're lat, but hopefully I'll be doing this again next month.

vintage books haul

Last friday , we had a day off from Uni and decided to have a walk in the historical center of the town.
Despite my profound hate for the city I live in, I must admit that the historical center is one of my favorite places, especially for the abundance of vintage shops and books stores!
With less than 20 euros, I've bought seven pretty vintage books that I'll be using to make mail art, collages, etc.
Here's some pics :3


"La Leda Senza Cigno III" by Gabriele D'Annunzio, and "Monsieur Parent + La Piccola Roque" by Guy De Maupassant.

incoming Birthday Mail + Lettermo day 19 & 20

A week ago it was my birthday, and my lovely friend Khris (from Spain), sent me the loveliest presents ever!


As the tag says, it was indeed a very special present for me, it nearly brought me to tears. I was so excited to open it that I literally overthrew the content of the envelope on my desk and that's what came out:

Lettermo day 16, 17 & 18 + incoming

Happy Wednesday everyone! I'm officially more than halfway through the lettermo :)

As usual, here's the picture of the 3 letters I've sent so far this week:


First one was for Joan. She wrote me that she would have liked me to send her anything like doodle, pressing and notes, so I thought she might be one of those who could also enjoy an handmade envelope.. and I hope I'm right!
The second one was for Mikela, which mentioned that her fav color is pastel pink. Tough I know it's not pastel, a pink envelope sounded like a good idea to me.. and once again let's hope this will be appreciated :)
Last but not least in this first round of mailing, it's Mary's letter! Even if in the picture it only has one stamp, I had to add another one because it was apparently too heavy.
