New artist stamps at the PO

I’m always excited when artist stamps come out. Right now, the Post Office is selling Charles & Ray Eames 42-cent stamps. Get ‘em while they’re hot (or at least before stamp prices go up again).

The “real” artist stamps are the ones with your own work on them. More expensive than regular (which, I agree, is pricey these days), they look great on mailings when paired with address labels with the same art.

Love them! I think the PO and their stamps are one of the great things about the US. I was at the market here in Lisbon yesterday and almost bought a bunch of Portuguese stamps. Why are they so compelling? Tammy, that’s a great reminder, making your own stamps. What a smart thing to do when sending out invitations!

Yes, I love artists’ “real stamps.” But aren’t these just to die for?! They’re so eye-catching. The PO did a GREAT job on them. We want more! Cynthia, maybe we’ll see Portuguese stamps on Journey Juju. They can’t be this cool.
