How did you get into stamp collecting? I saw a few of your stamp posts, and it makes me want to collect too!

Also, this may seem silly, but it seems that your stamps aren't on paper, but they've been used? How do you organize them?

Thank you so much for your time!! :)

hello! sorry for the slow reply I've been sick! but I love stamps and I'm always so excited to talk about them!

I got into stamp collecting over lockdown, I'd seen a couple photos of japanese post and the stamps were so cute I was immediately charmed! my first set of stamps I'd bought off ebay, I believe all I searched was "japan stamp" and there's a bunch of bundle listings! they're all cheap, maybe £2-3 max!

not silly at all! I was confused about it too when I first started collecting - here's a short video showing how to remove them! I keep all my stamps in flying eagle stock books, they're vintage I believe but I've bought them all second hand! there's a bunch of different stock book brands so look around! I prefer ones with white or cream pages!

most of my stamps now are collected from vintage markets or book stores or flea markers or from friends or mail I've recieved myself, once you start collecting you'll notice them in lots of places!
