Last week it was messages on mugs mixing up the postcard scene, and this week it’s pop-out wooden aeroplanes.
Suck UK has designed this Post Card Airplane made from balsa wood, which ensures that your message is delivered with a little personality rather than on a plain old postcard.
The pieces easily pop out to form your own flying glider upon which you can write your message, then it is set for ‘air mail’ take-off and letter box landing.
This is so much more fun than ordinary mail!
