What a pleasure to see you!
If you receive packages in the mail, you're left with empty mailing envelopes such as these:
Instead of tossing them out, let's turn them from blah to TADA!

I'm taking inspiration from these kraft envelopes with a button and string closure made by Traveler's Company.
Just by cutting, folding, and gluing the sides of the used mailing envelopes, I've come up with these:
Smaller mailing envelopes with a red stitching detail...TADA!
I used travel-themed rubber stamps and an ink pad to add some whimsy to the envelopes.
One the flip side, I also stamped on this stylized rectangle where I can write the recipient's name and address.
I made faux button and string closures using cardboard circles and embroidery thread.
For the little envelope, I literally used buttons and thread from my sewing kit to make the closure. Isn't it adorable?
And that is how I turned used mailing envelopes from blah to TADA! If you'd like to make letter envelopes using a brown paper bag, there's a tutorial here.
