Giving life to trash

I was making envelopes from old road maps and some ledger paper I found at the thrift store.  Maggie was excited.  I was teaching her to write letters and send them in the mail.  Not many people do that today.  I think it can be very rewarding for both, the person that writes it, and the person that receives it.

Then I came across these little cardboard boxes from a 4x5 film that my husband occasionally uses.  They were going in the recycling bin.  The shape and the thickness of them intrigued me, I tried to fit the envelopes that I had made few days ago.  Perfect fit!!! 

So I made some stationary boxes for the envelopes to go in.
