One Man`s Trash #8 (?)

Nov

Japanese gifts are often wrapped in stylish & colourful paper. I sometimes use this paper for writing letters on, & occasionally I even make matching envelopes from it too. I usually send these letters to my family in Australia - my nephews & neices think they`re cool & interesting.

I don`t think it`s suitable for my Japanese friends though. They think I`m strange enough already.

This is an envelope & writing paper set I made from the packaging on a souvenir I bought in Shikoku.

What do you think? Would you be pleased to receive such a letter?

It's a good idea.I am glad as I would get such a letter.
I used to reuse some wrapping paper to cover a book that I take when I go out.
Many years ago,I made a bag from a calendar of beautiful scenery.
