Dear Me Letter To Future Self
From the blogger: "I created a way to document what I'm learning at this critical time in the world. I call it DEAR ME. I wrote a letter to my future self and inserted it in a fun folder I created with double-sided cardstock. Now I can read my future letters next year to remember what I've learned in 2020. The use of baker's twine to insert the letter makes it easy -- no staples required! These are easy and fun to make, and super easy to duplicate. "
