The art of handwritten letters is alive and well, thank you

Old-fashioned is very much in fashion these days.

People are choosing to do the things their grandparents once had to, though perhaps in a more studied way.

Some grow and can their own vegetables and some sew their own clothes.

Some even — don't be shocked — write letters. The kind that need envelopes and postage.

Not plain white envelopes. Not Forever flag stamps. These modern correspondents go to far greater lengths.

They hunt down and stockpile eye-catching, uncanceled vintage stamps. They practice calligraphy and learn to make lovely swirls. They seek out small-batch letterpress stationery.
