I met Darcy 12 years ago at her shop Heartfelt in San Francisco. I LOVED it there and visited almost everyday of my honeymoon browsing the shelves. I picked up birthday presents and the staff kindly wrapped them all perfectly so I could ship them. I purchased books, cards, tea, towels, bowls, toys, and beautifully made bouquets of flowers that I would bring back to the AirBnB.
I followed the store and ordered so many unique gifts for friends and for myself. Once Darcy sent out the message that Heartfelt was closing; it was so terrible. Where would I find such cool things now?
Hail The Snail Mail was created and I immediately subscribed! The cards and “bonus gifts and cards” you receive each month are so gorgeous and fun. These cards you will NOT find in stores. Only Darcy would have the ability to find cool custom cards and have a theme each month. I have one card framed as do friends of mine. I do not need to go to a card store and pick up a mass produced generic card, now that I have HTSM in my life. It is also so useful when I need to order additional cards. I know they will be perfectly unique and the exact tone I am looking for. What is so great about Darcy is that she is an infinitely awesome human and one of the coolest people I know.
In closing, Hail The Snail Mail rules. If you are not a member you are definitely missing out!
