Hi. Remember how I used to blog? Well, I’m ready to do that again. At the last minute, I decided to be a vendor at the July Jubilee in College Station so I’m working around the clock getting ready. This is my first official craft fair – I’m excited to give it a try. [...] Recently, I received this apple box in the mail from my Grandpa. He is the master of letter writing and package sending. He sent me two cranberry crates from his father’s grocery store (Dan’s Foods). I’m such a sentimental girl – I love having these pieces from the old store. Of course, he included a letter [...] I’m breaking away from my baby and kiddo tutorials this week so you can get prepared for Mother’s Day. I don’t live close enough to my mom to celebrate Mother’s Day in person (sniff sniff) so I try to send something meaningful in the mail. This year, I designed a little flag book with pockets [...] I know I’m a little late on this post, but I’m still going to share! For Valentine’s Day this year, I kept it simple.

But then again, you know how much I love letters. So, in honor of our January Letter Writing Tutorial Month, here is a simple folded heart card I thought up yesterday afternoon. The possibilities [...] Introducing The Lightbulb Lab’s first ever artist spotlight. I am inspired by so many people and I want to share more of them with you. So every week or so I will shine the spotlight on an artist who has influenced me. First up: Mara Zepeda of Neither Snow. Tell us about what you do. I am a [...] Today’s tutorial comes from Mara Zepeda of Neither Snow. She believes (like me) that mail matters. Mara is a brilliant calligrapher – tomorrow I plan on shining the spotlight on her and her work. But for today, she is here to share her tips and tricks on writing postcards. Welcome, Mara! Eva Jorgensen already covered the [...]
I’ve dedicated January’s tutorials to letter writing. To start off, I’ve made a holiday thank yous tutorial. So begin your new year with gratitude and write a thank you. Here is my quick start guide to writing your holiday thank yous.
1. Gather writing materials: paper, envelopes, addresses, stamps, markers, stickers, etc. Keep [...] |
