Will everyone please check that I have the correct info, that I didn’t miss you, and that this makes sense? I decided to keep it at two options for getting addresses instead of including a third for either/or. If any of this is wrong or you want to change anything please send me a message :heart:

I was wondering if there is anyway to link the info people are giving to their username…I would be happy to do it and then you could copy it and put it on the front page?

It would be nice to click their name and read what their interests are etc. and everyone can update their own little post if they want more info to be included or even other special requests?

like this? I can go back and do the work as I know you have limited time…

This is a great idea! I’d been thinking the same thing!

@Reinikka - this looks great! And I totally agree with @AIMR and @Lynx - it’s like you read my mind!

Wonderful idea! I made notes in my notebook, but it’s already quite messy with extra notes and things.

Ok by me (altho, you’re also welcome to give out my address if you want, and maybe I should post a me-intro since I only did the one for my kid…)

Love the new format! Also, agree with @AIMR about linking to the posts would be super helpful! :blue_heart:

You read my mind. I’ve been wanting to do just that but haven’t sat down to do it :sweat_smile: I’d totally be up for some help if you’re volunteering :slight_smile:

You can give out my address too @Reinikka but I’m not sure if you have it. I’ll send it to you in a minute!
I’m not sure if I actually wrote an introduction, so here goes.

I’m Imma, I live with Mr. Imma in the Netherlands, in a small old house full of books and records. I was totally born in the wrong era and love all things vintage, especially flower prints. I guess I love colour in general. I have a small collection of 60s and 70s teapots, cups and saucers. When not working or crafting I like gardening and cooking/baking. I love learning new things about the place you are from.

I’m not much of a papercrafter, but I’ll try my best! I might occasionally send a store bought card. I totally love all mail, handmade or not.

What a team! This looks awesome. I really appreciate the address clarity and the links for quickie stalking!

Thank you! I copied the info into a google doc. I’ll update the first post with these later :slight_smile:

I got your incredible mushroom card @Cindy, did you take this photo? What a weird looking 'shroom, I love it!

It made it!!! I’m so glad to know my homemade postcard worked.

Yes, that’s my photo of a mushroom that was growing a few years ago in our Alberta backyard.

I remember picking those doggone things out of my yard in Alberta. I can still remember that mushroom smell from 30 years ago. Cannot dispute that they are cool looking, though!
