How do I make a letter?
Think about who you want to write to – a childhood friend, mentor, grandparent, significant other, yourself, etc.
Accumulate! (stickers, paper scraps, receipts, old newspapers, magazines, flyers, etc.).
Fold the paper into an envelope-ish shape.
Step 1: Fold the paper in half.
Step 2: Fold 1/4th inch of paper in on both sides.
Step 3: Fold the top of the paper over (this will seal your envelope).
Cut the extra paper at the top of each side.
Step 4: Tape both sides in and fold the seal over.
Step 5: Put your envelope inside and tape the seal closed!
Step 6: Decorate your envelope!
Put a U.S. postage stamp on the right corner (for international letters add 3 postage stamps, or purchase an international stamp from your local post office).
Once you’re are done decorating, place your collage on a flat surface.
Take an aerial picture and share it with us (@in_touch_letters) so we can add your envelope to our digital archive ;)
