How to use your October 2025 Stationery Box
Calling all book lovers and snail mail enthusiasts, this one’s for you! 💌 Our October Stationery Box is packed with everything you need to start your very own traveling book recommendation postcards, a fun & feel-good way to share your favorite reads (and get new ones!) through the mail.
Here’s what you’ll need:
-
Your October Stationery Box postcard book (it’s full of designs made just for this project!)
-
Pens ✍️
-
Stickers (of course!)
-
An envelope and postage stamp
Step 1: Pick your postcard.
Flip through your postcard book and choose a design that speaks to your inner bookworm. Each one is made to be filled out and sent along, like a chain letter for readers, but way cuter.
Step 2: Start your side of the story.
On the back of your postcard, fill in your info and choose a theme for the book recommendations, maybe “Cozy Fall Reads,” “Fantasy Worlds We’d Live In,” or “Books That Made Us Cry (In a Good Way).” 📖💕
Step 3: Add your book rec!
Flip the postcard over and fill in one of the squares with your book pick and the author’s name, plus your name and location. Bonus points for a tiny doodle or a reason why you love it!
Step 4: Send it off!
Then, get stickery — decorate the front and back with stickers from your box for that signature touch of magic ✨📚 Slip the postcard into an envelope, address it to a friend, pop on a stamp, and mail it out. They’ll add their own recommendation in the next empty square — then pass it along to another friend, and so on!
Step 5: The big return!
When the last square is filled, the final recipient sends it back to you — the original sender. You’ll get a postcard full of book recs and love from your friends’ mailboxes across the map 💕
Whether you keep your postcard as a keepsake or add it to your junk journal, you’ll have a mini library of recs and memories to look back on. It’s the perfect blend of snail mail + story time — two of our favorite things. 📚💌✨
