A we’ve-moved announcement with the tour in it.

We’ve moved. Here’s the door, here’s the kettle. Write the letter, add the photos, and a film if there’s one to send, so they can hear you say it. Pay once and send the link. They open it on their screen, like the real thing.

New home envelope: what goes inside

A letter

The new address, and what it’s like: the creaky stair, the view, where the kettle lives.

Dear all, We’re in. The boxes are winning.

A postcard

The front door, so they know it when they visit. The garden, if there is one.

Number 14. The blue door. Come round.

A film

The tour, room by room, including the one nobody’s unpacked.

How it works

Fill the envelope with a letter, postcards and a film — any mix, up to ten pieces, and one price for the whole envelope by what's inside. Pay once, by card. Send the link now, or keep it sealed until the day: no app to install, it opens on any phone, and it's kept for good.

New home envelope questions

Can I use it as a change of address card?

Yes. Put the new address in the letter and send one link to everyone who needs it.

Can I invite people round in it?

Put the date in the letter. It isn’t a party invitation with RSVPs, but it’s a warmer way of saying come and see it.

How much does it cost?

$1.29 for letters and postcards, $5 with a film. One price for the whole envelope, up to ten pieces, paid once by card through Stripe. No subscription.

Do they need an app?

No. One link, opened in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer. They tap the seal and the envelope opens.

When should I send it?

Whenever you like. Send the link straight away, or send it now and set the day and time it opens — until then they’ll see the sealed envelope and a countdown.

Can I change it after I’ve paid?

Until they open it, yes. Sign in with the email you paid with and change what’s inside; the link stays the same. You can’t add anything that costs more than you paid, and once they’ve opened it, it stays as it is.

How long does it last?

For good. They can open it as many times as they like. A film is kept for a year after it’s first opened, and they can save their own copy.

Say it properly.

Five minutes to write. One payment. One link they’ll open more than once.
