How It Works
Choose Your Story
Pick one of seven stories and set the date your first envelope mails. Prepay for the year or pay monthly.
Watch the Mailbox
Twice a month an envelope arrives, holding hand-illustrated letters and keepsakes that carry the story forward.
Keep Every Word
Twenty-four mailings carry you to the finale — and the letters are yours to reread for good.
Inside the Envelope
What's Inside The Envelopes?
Twenty-four mailings over twelve months, two each month. Every envelope holds letters — often more than one — plus extras that bring the story's world to life.
The Letters
Hand-illustrated letters written between the characters, carrying the tale forward twice a month.
Authentic Period Pieces
Articles, advertisements, and artifacts that deepen the world the characters are living in.
Keepsakes & Surprises
Small treasures and tokens tucked inside the letters, all designed by Hannie Clark.
Crafts & Traditions
Hands-on crafts and traditions to try at home, drawn from the world of the story.

A gift they'll thank you for twenty-four times.
Most gifts are opened once. This one shows up twice a month, all year — which makes it the answer for the person who already has everything.
You Choose the Day
Pick the first mailing date at checkout — her birthday, Christmas morning, or any day you like.
Something to Hand Over
A free printable gift card, so there's a moment to open even though the letters mail later.
No Prices in the Package
We never include an invoice or a price anywhere in the mailing. Just the story.
