Pam, I found some cheap photo albums ($1.00) and filled them with index cards. Works for me. Also, about 25% of the boxes I've found have ranged from damp to...
I wanted to share some camouflage information with everyone. Given the recent loss of 40% of our letterboxes, I was getting worried. We went out and looked...
Someone on the list--Dogscouts, maybe?--once suggested the cloth cammouflage tape. I've been trying that on the tops of my boxes that tend to come "unhidden"...
Yes, it was ScoutDogs that uses the Camo tape. I find that the tape tends to come off as the adhesive wears out whereas, the paint tends to stay till scrapped...
... ScoutDogs! I knew I'd get it backwards. The other problem I had with the tape was, if I made the decision to put it on there right before I planted the...
Yesterday we went for a nice hike to find a recently placed Letterbox. We were very dismayed by the graffiti and obviousness of it. While it was hidden in a...
That's why I use the Krylon Plastic Primer. It makes it so the other Krylon (And perhaps other brands) paints will stick to the plastic. I've also discovered...
When I first started this group I saw some talk about fake rocks, but didn't follow it because I didn't think I would need the information. Can I get some...
I got mine at Lowes in their paint section, not sure if it is available elsewhere, but I don't think craft stores would carry it, it's primary use is for...

Pardon my French, but holy crap! We thought Little Artists Everywhere had died a long time ago. Thanks for letting us know that this hitcher is still alive...
Hello - has anyone seen my hitchiking turtle - he hasn't been seen in a while and I am just concern about him. His name is stampy he was set free last fall in...
RE: Philly Leap Day Gathering 2004 We had a wonderful time at the Philly Leap Day Gathering, and would like to thank everyone who organized this event and...
I don't think it's necessary for "us all" to remind them. That would be a lot of posts all saying the same thing. And, I find it hard to believe that the...
We use the little acid free Strathmore 300 series 3.5" x 5" sketch pads that can be found in crafts stores like Michaels. They have either a yellow cover or a...
... Ooh, me too, and I just bought 6 of them today. I didn't know about getting them cheaper online, though. Thanks for the link! DebBee [Non-text portions...
I couldn't imagine a letterboxer doing that! Sounds more like it was found by kids who took spray paint out and "X" marked the spot! Reminds me of when we...
Love was in the air as the Dancing at Bougival hitchhiker was shared with Phyto & Isosceles. Thanks to the Nails, Jay Drew and Team Green Dragon for the...

Can anyone recommend a good place to buy stamp pads for a reasonable price? Also - what brand do all of you use? I bought a Crystal Dye Based one and I do not...
This past weekend we went to our very first gathering. It was wonderful. It was great to connect faces of people with their Trail Names. The place was ...
... I use these a lot. Most of them are fine. I've run into a few dry ones, but they're the exception. DebBee [Non-text portions of this message have been...
After spending a small fortune in replacing the Crystal Dye stamp pads for the very same reason: a dry pad fresh out of the wrapper! Grrrrrrr. I found a place...
