It would be fun to sit there and write letters with kids, although there probably aren't that many kids at the main post office. I probably need to do it at a mall. And probably right outside the Hallmark store. And I would have to get permission. Luckily it is too late to do anything this year.
Maybe a Mrs. Cupid outfit for valentine's day. I always love to be at a grocery store during lunch time on Valentine's day. There are always tons of guys standing there picking out the obligatory card. I've often thought I should do some fancy names on their envelopes because ladies love to see their names written fancy.
I just Googled *Mrs Cupid* and was worried that they would be too cheesecake for me. A LOT of the Mrs. Claus outfits are very cheesecake. Surprisingly - this was the first one that popped up and they were mostly very tame.

You are too funny. Great ideas. Our calligraphy guild went to a mall and had tables set up where kids could come and make a Mother's Day card or in June, a Father's Day card. While the kids were making the card, we would write on the envelope for them. I really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteThen when I started doing demos at Artist and Display, we would have tables set up before Mother's Day and Father's Day. Watching their imaginations work was special I really miss the store. It's a butcher shop now. I said that I should set up a table in a corner and do demos.
I didn't know Artist and Display was gone. So sad.
DeleteOr maybe I did know and forgot. Either way - it's sad.
I'd join you at a table.
We could wrap gifts in butcher paper - and embellish them with words, names and/or flourishing.
