This post interest me a lot, I am all for recycling stuff and I don't really mind if someone can put the effort to make an used envelope or anything else to look new again. I recycle a lot of those bubbled envelopes, firstly because they are use and resistant and yes, they can be used more than once, I use colored papers and glue them in the front, plus I am very careful to open them the first time, so they look perfectly. Most of the time I do my own envelopes because I feel much better to have my own personalized envelopes, I can pick beautiful papers to make them. I also already have made postcards with things I found, paper, images,... collages.<br /><br />Warm thought,<br />Joanaohjoanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00816717633264866417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5656074693450416622.post-16131967638092174822011-02-05T10:04:35.884-08:002011-02-05T10:04:35.884-08:00I am glad to see I am not the only one who buys pa...I am glad to see I am not the only one who buys paper for the sake of buying it!

And I am so happy to have met people on the web who don't mind seeing a macaroni box come in their mail. haha. <br /><br />Buying punches is a great idea..and they have been added to my list of things to pick up in the future! Slowly I am getting better! I dont think this blog is contagious so no worry about the spread!

Try buying some punches instead of paper and use the punches to cut out interesting shapes in junk mail.<br />Don't send your cold this way, but feel better. xox CorrineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
