Love mail art!

April Is National Letter Writing Month which promotes joy, creativity, expression, and connection through hand-written correspondence. You can make it even bigger and bolder by including mail art (also known as postal art and correspondence art). It's a populist artistic movement centered on sending small scale works through the postal service.
If you create some make sure to post it on InstaGram using  #snailmail, #sendmoremail, #snailmailrevolution, #snailmaillove, #snailmailrevival and don't forget #stencilgirl if you use one of our fabulous stencils! 


Three Crows is a stencil created by Kimberly Baxter Packwood
Wheel Spokes Set #2 Stencil by Andrew Borloz

I miss sending mail art. It used to be huge about 15 years ago, but the price of shipping packages skyrocketed, which discouraged many artists. I'm hopeful that it will make a comeback some day.
