I stumbled across this fabulous idea when I was looking for a way to organize all of my letters. They were just piling up in my desk draw to the point where they weren’t fitting. I ended up having to take them all out of…
I’ve been telling myself lately that I’ve “got a problem.” A big one that involves pretty things. Generally, it’s paper or stationery things and I suppose it stems from my recent snail mail obsession. I’ve sort of replaced my scrapbooking binges with buying stationery instead.…
So I’ve been playing around on another blog of mine these past few days. It’s an old blog that I turned into a snail mail/pen pal blog to give it new content. It’s called And Along The Way. (I’m not sure if I’m going to…
My pen pal Mary once sent me a small greeting card which she turned into a little folder to hold the letter, mail tag, and other goodies. She made little pockets to fit on each side, then once she had everything in the folder, she sealed…
Mail Tag is a game created by Bianca of goodnight little spoon. It is a clever little game you play via the post. A great conversation starter, sending a mail tag with your letter is a great way to get to know your pen pal right off…

As you know, I’m utterly addicted to scrapbooking and have recently joined the likes of many who are trying to bring snail mail back. With scrapbooking and writing and exchanging paper goodies with my pen pals, it is only natural that I hoard stationery too.…
Yep, I did it again. Volunteered for ALL THREE DAYS of the Book Expo floor show. I worked Autographing again and wow was this experience a bit different from last year’s! For one, it was easier but also a bit difficult. Easy in the sense that…
I’ve been meaning to really try out Project Life. I love all the spreads I see on Studio Calico, a scrapbook site I’m on, but I don’t think I could dedicate myself to a 12×12 album for a year. It just seems way too big…
As you know, aerialove began as my own personal exploration of love. I began this blog with the intent of writing and discussing topics of love. After awhile, aerialove just became part of ariestrash (as I combined both of my sites), and it evolved into…
