Where To Find Pen Pals




Where can I find Pen Pals?


There are many many many places you can find the perfect pen pal(s)! 

If you have a Facebook account here are a list of groups on Facebook that I recommend, I found most of my pen pals on Facebook through these groups! 





You also can find pen pals on Instagram, Tumbler, and other websites. I'll leave a link down below for you to check out!  





If you are trying to find pen pals on Instagram I recommend you making a separate Instagram account for pen paling. The reason for this is that the Pen pal community is so big that sharing pictures of your creations and ideas with others helps you find more pen pals and also using the hastags #penpalswanted and #penpalsneeded are two helpful ways to find pen pals on Instagram. I've seen so many inspiring ideas on Instagram that helped me with my pen pals letters. 


I hope this helps you find the perfect pen pals!

Pocket Letters A & Q

I started Pocket Letters when I got into pen paling in 2017 and loved it so much! Today I’ll be teaching you how to make them and what you need. So let’s get started!  What's a Pocket Letter? Pocket Letters are a new way to send letters to your new or existing penpals. It's a penpal letter in pocket format. Basically, you fill all the pockets of a 9 Pocket Trading Card Protector and send the whole page to someone who wants to swap with you. This can be a one-time exchange or you can keep exchanging Pocket Letters.
