I celebrated my birthday 80s style this year, with a themed-party, 80s music and a decade-long mashup of decorations. From Boy George tapestries, Motley Crue posters and PacMan mobiles to neon jelly bracelets, banana clips, and Pop Rocks, it covered the gamut.
I was particularly proud of my Pac Man ghosts hanging from the ceiling. After the party, I just couldn’t throw them away, so I kept some for my junk book and I gave one a new life as a post card:
To keep the theme going, I sent out thank you cards on these mix-tape notes from HeatherJeany at Etsy. I bought them ages ago, and knew exactly what I wanted to do with them. I just needed to get around to having an 80s party!
And, uncharacteristically, I will share a photo of myself, dressed as the 80s rocker chick I clearly was born to be:
Yours in mail art and blue eyeshadow,

You look very Madonna. Cool party!
It made it here fully intact! I’ll send some (hopefully) equally fun mail your way to brighten the PO box soon.
Yay! So glad it made it there in one piece!
