They say a picture is worth a thousand words--and stamps aren't getting any cheaper if you actually have a 1000 word letter to mail; consider converting an old photograph from a scrapbook, or a recent family photo into a unique and personal postcard. They are just the right size for the project, and it's very simple to accomplish:
1. Flip over the photograph that you'd like to use, and draw a straight line down the back of the photo (slightly to the right of the middle so that you have plenty of room for your personal greeting).
2. Address your postcard on the right, and stick a stamp in the upper right-hand corner as if you are sending a normal postcard that you might purchase at a convenience store.
3. Compose your short greeting on the left hand side and drop it in a mailbox--it's that simple!
Friends and family will love the creative aspect, and you'll save a bit of money in the process!
Now that you've saved some money making your own postcards, be sure to keep a look out for equally fun and creative custom postage stamps from our online store! Check out our current stamp selection here: Saving Snail Mail's customizable postage stamps
