20 Postcards To Send Socially Distanced Love And Support The USPS

So now you've bought $20 worth of stamps to help the Post Office, what to do with them? Support some small businesses and send off some post cards to family and friends across the country or down the street you haven't been able to see in months. Also we've all kind of stepped into a Jane Austen novel, might as well fully embrace it by starting correspondences.

Can you imagine getting these in the mail? I can and it's nearly as good as actually being able to eat in a restaurant again and having dumplings. These ridiculously cute postcards are a great way to remind a friend you can't wait to eat in a restaurant again with them.

4. For the Tiny House Friend

Tiny Houses to me are ridiculous, unless we are talking about the Shire and I'm sold. But these houses are also wildly tempting. Such an adorable set of postcards you'll soon be out of stamps because you've used them all up on these!

Look. How. Cute. These. ARE. And your friend, you know the one who puts their keys in a skull and has bat fairy lights all over their room? They will absolutely love these. Oh and I guess Halloween is like 2 months away so might as well celebrate it now because time isn't real anymore!!

Find them here! (Them being the postcards, not the concept of time which is lost to the ether).

8. For your friend who Loves Malaysia

Listen, I've never been to Malaysia but these postcards made me want to hop in a plane (in 2 years time when Quarantine is really done) and head over there. The beautiful colors calm my brain immensely.

I didn't know mushrooms were beautiful until I saw these! Full disclosure I actually have already bought these and am eagerly awaiting them. The color palette and the design overall is just so breathtaking. Am I a mushroom person now?

CopperandBrassPaper / Via etsy.com

Sometimes you don't want to say much, just a hey, I'm thinking of you. What a perfect post card! You probably don't even have to write anything. Though Maybe sign it. An anonymous note saying Hello There can have ominous overtones lets be real.

Find it Here!

11. For the Vogue Loving Fashion Friend

PingHattaStudio / Via etsy.com

Do I love Fashion? Possibly. It's confusing and beautiful and entrancing but I do not understand how it happens but I do know I love these! From the styling, to the clothes, to the color, just beautiful beautiful beautiful.

12. For the friend who loves Animal heads on Human Bodies

MarkusWuelbern / Via etsy.com

Y'all, I have to come clean. This friend? It's me. This is the kind of ish I am obsessed with. And as soon as I'm done with this list I'm about to order me some.

Find them here! (If I don't buy them all first).

13. For your Friend who Loves the Black & White Filter on Insta

Paperhousepress / Via etsy.com

These are so beautiful and yes I absolutely do overuse the B&W filters on insta so yes this is kind of a self-roast. Can you send postcards to yourself? I mean I guess you CAN nothing really can stop you, but should you? I've dropped the plot. Buy these they're cute!

Find them here!

14. For the Homebody

PapierPressCo / Via etsy.com

These beautiful watercolor postcards just fill one with a sense of cozy even through a screen. A wonderful present to your introverted homebody friend and you don't even have to see them face to face, which they may consider a special bonus.

15. For the Friend who definitely has read through old Encyclopedias for Fun

ByBeckyAmelia / Via etsy.com

Why such a specific friend? Because these definitely remind me of very old drawings of plants and flowers and I love them. I'd frame them honestly. Buy a set to frame and a set to send off and cause your friend a huge dilemma because they love the card so much they want to frame it and yet they want to read your message again! A kind present that will send your friend into an emotional turmoil at your kindness. The true hope of every present.

Find them here!

16. For the Friend who Constantly Wears their Home for a Hat

RedCheeksFactory / Via etsy.com

Listen, we all have that friend who after a few too many tries to put an entire house on their head. Classic Gary. Finally the world has noticed that demographic and made the perfect postcard for them.

Really I'm just obsessed with this and think they're very cute and you can find them here!

17. For your Eco Conscious Friend

ManoMonai / Via etsy.com

Okay so these are SUPER cool because the artist has printed these from real flowers and plants, and they hand make the paper. Very neat and cool!!

18. For The Pet and Wintery Loving Friend

TraveltrinketsCanada / Via etsy.com

These beautiful postcards come with stickers too! So you can send off a postcard and keep the sticker to remind you of the friend you wrote to. I love the interpretations of snowflakes on these and also look at the puppies. In love all around.

19. For the Bird Watcher

Marijkeillustration / Via etsy.com

Look at this COLOR PALETTE. So stunning and what a joy to get in the mail. The birds are so beautiful drawn and I'm just obsessed with all the bird friends, who are definitely about to murder and eat that dragonfly but the tableau is beautiful now!!

Find all of the bird friends and their work colleague the Dragonfly here!

20. For the Crystal Fanatic

PapersandInksUS / Via etsy.com

These pastel colored postcards are so beautiful it's almost sad to send them off, but then you remember how your friend has an entire bookcase filled with crystals and you realize this is for them more than you.
