Joy Mail Club 💌

You may or may not know that I am a designer and illustrator by trade. For nearly four years, I ran my own branding and web design studio. In 2022, I accepted a full-time in-house job at a creative agency, and put my studio to rest.

In 2024, I was getting an itch for a creative outlet, and ended up designing a full line of greeting cards, stationery, and stickers. I sold them at local markets and wholesale (they were stocked in nearly fifty stores across the country!). It was a lot of fun, but got to be a lot of work also, so sometime last year I hit pause on that idea.

But I love, love, love paper goods and stickers and little trinket-y delights, so I’m getting that itch again, and I want to resurrect my stationery and paper design products in the form of a monthly snail mail club I’m calling Joy Mail.

Founding Members will receive an envelope each month packed with delight—postcards, mini-prints, stickers, punch cards, junk journal & collage bits, greeting cards, and other fun surprises. A little dose of whimsy and joy, from me, to you.

The Joy Mail Club is $120/year, which will get you one full calendar year of joy, whimsy, and fun new paper goods. It also gets you access to the full Parenthetical paid experience too!
