just your type

images found on we♥it - are you surprised? :)

have you ever thought about how blogging might have worked before there was internet or even computers?  i imagine a community of people using their typewriters and sending the same "post" off in the mail to all of their "blog" friends...imagine that?

that would be kind of cool if you ask me.

what do you think?

  2. Oh, I think that would be wonderful!!! But it will probably be 20 times more time consuming. Those typewriters are beautiful though!

  3. I have been gone far too long! Look at your beautiful blog! I love love love what you have done! You never cease to amaze me with how incredibly talented and creative you are! Love this post as well, those typewriters are just so sweet. My grandma has one, I wonder if I could get my hands on it, hmmm lol. Blogging would be super hard with a typewriter, but I'm sure it would weed out the real bloggers from the rest! Love to you!

  15. sometimes I think I was born in the wrong era. I love to write. I love typewriters. I love stationary. Receiving letters in the mail is my favorite! I absolutely LOVE to get the mail. Everyday! Its like a small daily surprise. Even though its mostly bills or junk mail. Its still fun!

  19. Ha! I guess people had other people they always wrote letters to. Each person would get a slightly different letter, but I guess that would ahve to be the old fashioned blogging. Sounds like fun. I love written letters.
