Many of us relatives, especially the elderly, live in such corners of immense Russia, where there are no such benefits of civilization as the Internet and cellular communication. The only way to file a news about yourself is to write a letter. The usual letter written by hand without correcting errors in Word, but from a pure heart. Seal it into the envelope and send by mail. Most likely, the letter will remain at home until it gets lost among the papers, because there is no envelope in the house.

- Bend the sheet diagonally, slightly running a fold.
- The lower angle is bent so that its top rests on the central point.
- Side angles need to be beatened to the center so that there is a small distance between their vertices.
- In places of contacting the corners you need to walk with glue.
- Close the envelope top valve.
This is what the envelope looks like.
Note! Fields to fill the address can be stacked or print on the printer.
