Description:

Has anyone received a pocket letter before? They are a lot of fun to receive, as well as to put together. For these letters you need one of those 9 pocket card protector sheets, the kind used to store gaming/collectors cards. Some of us, like me, use them to house our ATC collections.

The first pocket holds a letter to your partner, telling them a little about yourself, and each of the remaining pockets have something different in them that your partner may appreciate. Notecards, stickers, washi tape samples, sweeties, ribbons, embellishments, quotes, handmade envies, an ATC......the possibilities are endless. Obviously it's recommended that you read through your partner's profile beforehand.

Once you have filled the pockets with little goodies, fold the plastic sheet into thirds and pop it into one of those business size envies. Like the ones the dreaded bills come in....ready to send!

There are loads of examples of pocket letters online if you need inspiration.

I would love to join, but where does one buy the 9 pocket protector sheets. I have seen it to order from overseas, but unfortunately I don't have a credit card so I cannot buy it.

@Apelser you can get them from any comic book shop or place that sells trading cards =)

Do you know where to get them in Pretoria?

Hoosfoos 05/17/2015 #

@laurenvnzl there must be some of these comic book shops in your area too. Perhaps do an internet search?

I have checked and asked around and there are no comic book shops in my area. No one at the stationery shops have an idea of what I am talking about.

Hey @Apelser - I found some at a shop at Brightwater Commons - but thats all the way in Randburg ... or there is another Anime shop in Mellville ...
