Make your own postcard from household waste! Old cereal box? Empty canned soda box? Give it new life as a handmade postcard!
I'll bring templates for making the postcards, as well as completed cards for folks that just want to get to writing.
You'll leave this workshop with a template for making more postcards and hands on experience to help build that muscle memory.

Why make postcards?
Postcards are an economical way to reach out to a friend and let them know you've been thinking about them. Having a physical item can really help folks connect with each other.
Another great use for postcards is writing your representatives. Physical mail is a little harder to ignore VS digital mail. Let your reps know what's important to you. I'll include a little info packet about the reps local to our area, including some recommended scripts and addresses.

All materials are included, but here are some things you can bring if you'd like:
You are welcome to bring chipboard (look for: cereal boxes, soda can boxes, and frozen meal boxes) from your own recycling bin and I'll walk you through breaking them down.
Got a bunch of postcard stamps you'd like to share? Feel free to bring them.
You're favorite writing pen!
