Writing My Friends Victorian Letters

I've always dreamed of getting an old fashioned Victorian letter in the mail, so why not make it happen for my friends? Complete with tea dyed paper, diy wax seals, envelopes, stickers, botanical paintings, and pressed flowers.

Tbh I watch too many penpal and snail mail videos, which has led me here. A lot of the ones I see require supplies that I just do not have, so I decided to do a hopefully inexpensive version with things I already have.

If you send letters, I would love to hear some of the themes/things that you include in yours!

Also, if you want more info on traditional letter writing, there is a really amazing channel called Townsends that has made some fantastic videos on it, which is where I got a ton of my information- https://youtu.be/xxb-XqsgaqM
And the envelope folding technique that I always use https://youtu.be/xsdfcVh3iSg
