Monthly Giveaway!
Location not specified yetOccasionally I purchase mystery bags or grab bags full of stationery (or stationery-adjacent items - like magnets or pins). I also participate in Fukubukuro each year, and it's always a toss up when I do this --sometimes I end up with items and think, "I love this!," and sometimes I end up with items and think, "Someone else would love this!". :)
So, every month for the rest of the year, we're gonna do a giveaway where you get the chance to be that someone else. What will you receive? It's a surprise, my friend, but it will be new, unused stationery (or stationery-adjacent). And I'll post a hint in each monthly description. This month's hint: Origami Letter Set
So how does this giveaway work? All you need to do is RSVP, and on the day of this event, I will come back and announce the winner. Good luck!

Conrad Sulzer Regional Library, 4455 North Lincoln Avenue, Chicago, IL, USApril is National Card and Letter Writing Month. To celebrate, I thought we could get together and write cards and letters through an organization called Love For Our Elders. I have no connection to this group. I just thinks it's a really lovely idea.
Their website is: Love For Our Elders . Here you will find letter requests and descriptions of recipients, as well as more information about the organization.In-Person Meetup deets below:
