Fine Art Mail Club

Every month Ginette Gaskin paints a new original in oils and turns it into a club envelope: a signed fine art print of that painting, a personal letter, stickers based on her work and a rotating paper goodie such as a bookmark or postcard. Members also get a discount on the original canvas if they want to buy it. Past themes include a desert landscape, a summer lobster dinner and a card game still life.

The club is USD 12 a month or USD 120 a year, and shipping is free worldwide (stamped, no tracking). Sign up by the 20th and your first envelope leaves at the end of that month; later sign-ups start the following month. Missed months are sold as catch-up envelopes.

A good fit for anyone who likes collecting a series of colourful, framable prints.
