of letter writing!
With the convenience and easy access to e-mail, Twitter, Facebook, and social media in general, fewer and fewer folks are sending handwritten letters and cards these days. And what a shame! Isn't it awesome to open your mailbox and find not just a bunch of junk, but a note or a card that someone took the time to write in and drop in the mail to you?

In ancient times, wax seals were used to indicate whether or not a letter had been tampered with during transit, and also to prove that it was coming from the actual sender and not a forgery. Hot wax was poured onto the envelope and then imprinted with the sender's ring that bore their family crest, or something similar.
Nowadays, wax seals are used more for fun. The colorful wax and decorative seal makes for a really pretty presentation, and we've got all the supplies you need to close your envelope with style:
