They are too pretty to use. I think they would look kinda cool framed.

Wonderful! I have loved produce crate and seed packet art ever since I was a young man working in the wholesale produce business. There are many websites devoted to it all. Gorgeous stuff. I'm going to the Post Office Monday to get some of those.

I like small things. Actually I have seen framed postage stamps in a home I visited years ago. They were sport stamps, I think Olympics and they were framed in groups of four stamps to a frame. It was actually an interesting display.

The stamps are a cool design. But I very rarely use stamps. Maybe I will go get some anyway.

restless- they are *Forever* stamps, so even if stamp prices go up you will not have to worry about what price you paid for them. They are good forever!

Cute! I love interesting stamps. Nothing against the flag, but I do try to find other things for variety.

Yeah, I know...but I already have two books of forever stamps...one standard flag design, one winter design. I think I might use 3 stamps per year. Maybe I should buy these neat stamps and then vow to send holiday cards this year to justify my purchase.  |
