This month, I’m thrilled to be celebrating the season with my friend Nimrat, the woman who encouraged me to start documenting my mail! She also happens to be a talented artist and designer, and our theme was “Festive”.

Here’s my envelope to Nimrat:

Remind you of anything? This is the first year I’ve gotten my own Christmas tree, and I’m very into it. It’s maybe 3 feet tall, but has over 200 lights on it! I just couldn’t stop. 🙂

And here’s Nimrat’s gorgeous envelope to me:

She writes: “I’ve gotten to celebrate the December holidays in so many different countries, and I love how the season always manages to feel surprisingly festive in all places and climates. Here’s a piece inspired by a Christmas I celebrated in Africa.”
