Take an enclosed envelope you know, the envelope inside the envelope), carefully open it and turn it inside-out. Then decorate your new envelope with paint or inks, and add some other junk mail elements - use your address from the outer envelope as your return address tag, add some words, numbers or images from junk mail (the Geico Gekko or other company image/icon) - have fun and make your envelope interesting! Be creative and think outside of the envelope! Spice it up with something creepy cool!!! Include a small flat surprise inside - something to make more mail art. Questions? Ask below.

This swap sounds like such a fun and creative way to turn everyday clutter into something truly special! I love how it encourages sustainability through art, giving junk mail a second life. Flipping envelopes inside-out and transforming them with paint, collage, and quirky elements like the Geico Gecko? Genius. It’s a great mix of recycling and creativity. Plus, the idea of including a small surprise inside makes it feel like a mini treasure hunt. Count me in! how much to insure motorcycle
