Hello there!
I’m Allyson, a designer, illustrator, writer, and dreamer.
This year, I have decided that I want room to explore new styles, to find my own voice, and to build something I have been envisioning for years.
That's where the club came from. I have been looking for a place to follow whatever inspires me, to play in the process, and to be excited to create again.
Every design I make is a mosaic of my life: the artists who inspire me, the places I've traveled to , and the people I will always carry with me.
Because I feel that the real blueprint of a person remains in all of the things they hold onto.
Thanks for being here. I'm glad we found each other.
So the ultimate question goes… Why create a mail club in an ever-evolving digital world? And the simple answer is because I believe in people.
I picture any of you on the other end of the mailbox opening your mail and finding this package amongst the bills to pay and various junk mail. And maybe, it bringing a little bit more life to your mailbox each month. I picture people in retirement homes or dorm rooms who are lonely and need a little bit of sunshine. We need more community in the world and this is my way of bringing a little bit of joy and community to people who might be like me… seeking connection. An envelope sent by a human to another human. Hand in hand.
Behind the Mail Club
Behind the Designs
All our designs are originals from the artist behind the business, Allyson. She uses a mixture of digital art & hand painting across different mediums.
All of the poetry is also hand written by the in- house writer, Allyson.
And yes, you guessed it, Allyson is also behind the computer right now… writing this in the 3rd person…
I really never considered myself an artist or a poet until I was given a pen and a computer when a dream began to form.
