If you are like me, your mailbox might be constantly empty...or rather full of annoying bills and junkmail 
So I thought about creating a "Lonely Mailbox Club"
Basically each club member will have a list of people to mail little things....a card...an ATC....a nice piece of ribbon....a mini book...whatever you feel like
The important thing is that we all are a little constant in shipping, we might be lucky and be a little constant in receiving 
I am trying to get people involved from different countries, it might be nice to get a box of cookies they eat in France at Christmas or a pretty ribbon from Spain or some postcards from Brasil.....
The idea is two send something to a different person every couple of week or so. No imposition on what or when....the economy is what it is and I don't want people to feel obliged to mail something too big or too expensive to ship.
I am open to suggestions
If you'd like let me know and let's get in our mailbox something fun for a change

Is this something like happy mail where we'd have the same partner and send them a little something every now and then??
Or is there a rotation??

I was thinking each had a set number of people and it's up to us to make sure we mail something to everybody...so I guess you'll have the same partner for a while...
If it is successful we can switch lists...

That sounds so fun! I was always sad I didn't do the Happy Mail thing. I am just so bad at mailing things, I would be worried I would disappoint someone. I will watch this thread and maybe I will take the plunge.

I just saw this, but I'm definitely interested. I could manage it I think, and I always love getting entertaining mail versus bills and such! Count me in, and please keep me posted!

So would it just be what we could stuff in envelopes for a stamp? That I could manage affordably...would be so much fun! Much cheer in an envelope rather than junk mail and blechy bills...

Ok...finally I have a moment to finalize this idea!!!
Here is what I came up with, don't look at the names as they are just hypothetical, it's just to explain the mechanism....
1. Anna
2. Mary
3. Lucy
4. Ingrid
5. Francesca
6. Andrea
7. Tatiana
The first month girl #1 will ship to girls # 2,3,4
Girl # 2 will ship to girl # 3,4,5
So that every month each girls will receive at least 3 something.
We'll go on for 3 months and then we will switch...then girl #1 will ship to #4,5,6 and girl #2 will ship to 6,7,1 and so on.
Basically we will switch girls every 3 months. Girls who do not mail will be deleted from the list.
You can mail whatever you like....a card...a mini album...some embellishment...a cute piece of ribbon...some clear stamps....a pba...even a postcard or whatever you feel like. The important thing is to be constant with mailing...so you'll be constant in receiving
They don't have to be big things, even staff that can fit in a regural envelope are fine. Maybe if it's the girl b-day you might want to be more generous!
I have already a few girls from Italy interested...so the more the merrier, it would be nice to get staff from all over the world.
You can ship what you want, when you want as long as you mail something at least once a month, if you want to do it more often it is totally up to you!!
To keep track of the flow, maybe you could send me a message when you get something.
I'd like to start with February, so if you are interested, shoot me your address in my email

C'mon stateside SISters - this promises to be really fun, and you know how JUNK mail and BILLS can be such a drag...think of how neat it is to get happy mail! Even just a little something to brighten your mailbox each month!
