{snail mail} a note from the inn

stationery makes me swoon.

i have been madly in love with it for as long as i can remember, especially when it comes it a beautifully packaged set.

last week, i was wandering around our local bookstore when i found a table full of curious stationery sets.

this one captured my eye...


it combines four things i love: cute, creepy, colorful, carnival.

it features the artwork of mizna wada, an illustrator in tokyo who happens to be exactly my age...


i immediately purchased it with the intention to send these strange ladies to guests of the inn...




i plan to write notes on these lovelies and send them wooshing out into the world to five guests of the dew drop inn.

would you like to find one in your mailbox?

if so, please leave me a comment with your email below.

all global locations are welcome!

the first five to respond will get a sideshow sweetie via snail mail from the inn.

p.s. my pages up above (about the inn, meet the innkeeper, contact, and web love) are finally alive if you would like to take a peek!

#5--Yippee!

I would LOVE a little note. My email is: maryleach17@hotmail.com

I worked in Korea for a couple of years and they have awesome stationary. It's mostly cute stuff, but you occasionally can find a cute/creepy mix. The bonus is that it is ridiculously cheap, too. I became obsessed with it while I was there!

Thanks, Diane!

How funny! Great minds think alike: I too am going to be doing a little fun 'snail mail' project this summer - I think it's the perfect time of year for it!
