No disrespect to the Liberty Bell. It's perfect for the cable or water bill, but some occasions call for something a bit more special, and we think a tapestry of vintage stamps might be just the perfect fix.
Vintage stamps are those little details that can create a big effect if paired right. If you're like us and love this sweet finishing touch, don't get discouraged if your local post office doesn't carry postal options that exactly match your mood, theme or the weight of your mail. Sites like Champion Stamp or Kenmore Stamps carry just about anything you can dream up, or sometimes for face value, you can find what you're looking for on ebay. For example, vintage flowers might be perfect for a garden wedding. Or retro peaches might be pair well with a swanky Savannah soiree.
Just don't forget—it will take a lot of these beauties to add up to today's correct postage, so watch your math, and make sure to leave room for your calligrapher if you're using one. And, this is super important, all stamps you use must be unused/uncancelled so make sure if you order online, that is indeed what you are getting. With these tips in mind, happy stamping!
