It's time folks, time to JOIN THE REVOLUTION & SEND SNAIL MAIL! I'm addicted, I admit it. To fine paper, to paper worth collecting and putting on display. To the colors, textures & smells. It's that enchanted world of school supplies.....colored pencils, binders & most importantly paper! I've loved it since I was small and as I have grown my tastes have been refined you may say.

This is where the revolution begins, and my contribution is Simple Spiel. Yes, it is about the paper, the typeface and the design but ultimately it is about making someones day. To me there is something exhilarating about receiving snail mail, a card, letter....anything other than a credit card bill or an announcement that I have won five million dollars. But that blessed rush of opening the box and seeing the handwriting of someone I love. It sure beats the heck out of any e-mail or text message.

So paper it is, beautiful, simple paper. Designs that are unique, handmade and intended to be shared. So indulge.....collect...join the revolution....SEND SNAIL MAIL!

I am very glad you are blogging! I love snail mail too! I agree that it is very exciting to get something besides bills in the mail! I love you Mel Gibson.

It's a revolution...and we're starting one mailbox at a time.
