Hi everyone! I’m a stay-at-home mom looking to start a new creative hobby — penpaling! I’ve always loved the idea of connecting with others through handwritten letters, decorating, and creating something meaningful.

Times are tough right now, so I’m hoping to see if anyone has any extra supplies they no longer use or would be willing to pass along. I’d love to give these items a new purpose while learning a new hobby.

I’m currently looking for:

✉️ Writing Supplies
• Stationery paper
• Letter writing sets
• Envelopes (any sizes)
• Notebooks or journals
• Writing pads
• Pens (gel pens, colored pens, fine tip pens)
• Markers or highlighters
• Pencils and erasers

🎀 Decorating Supplies
• Washi tape
• Stickers
• Scrapbook paper
• Decorative paper
• Stamps and ink pads
• Stencils
• Ribbon
• Lace or trims
• Embellishments
• Die cuts
• Scrapbooking supplies

📦 Organizing/Packaging
• Small storage containers
• Pencil cases
• Craft organizers
• Paper folders
• Envelopes or mailers for sending letters

Any extra supplies, partially used items, or craft items you no longer need would be greatly appreciated. I’m hoping to create something positive, make connections, and enjoy a relaxing hobby from home.

I’m located in the LES area. Can pick up if within walking distance to me.

Thank you so much for reading, and I appreciate any help or shares! ❤️
