So glad the Snail Mail Game Show is BACK after a way too long hiatus, and I’m thrilled to able to share the results! For Round 16, the participants received a piece of paper with the outline of a general oval symbolizing a “place” and a blank welcome sign with the prompt, “Close your eyes. You’re in your happy place. Open your eyes. Your happy place is on this page! Show me what your happy place looks like, and if your like, use the welcome sign to label what it is/who is welcome.”
As always, the prompted paper is just a guideline, and participants are welcomed and encouraged to color outside the lines, and this round sure has a lot of that! I’m so proud!

I don’t know that I can argue with a happy place being full of furry cuddly cats!
Artist: Liz
Elizabeth imagined what it would be like to have their own designated studio space which would include many of the things labeled in the picture you see! I’m all for large windows, plants, reading chairs, and a big ol’ workbench! Sounds so lovely!
Artist: Olivia
These photos are from a trip Olivia took recently when she realized she is the most happy around nature or plants!

“LOTSA MAIL!” — I think that sounds like a lot of our happy places, haha!
Artist: Sandy
Sandy’s intention was to make clouds out of yarn and knitted things showering snow and winter awesomeness on her and all of the “good doggos” she should find! What a warm welcome to the next season!
And the winner of Round 15 is Tona! I will be sending them a prize via snail mail.
There are already people signed up for Round 17! You want in? Get a chance to express yourself creatively, share your art publicly, and possibly win a prize! Check out the official Snail Mail Game Show page where you can learn about the rules and sign up! And yes, you can sign up for multiple rounds at once, if you feel like paying for a few months all at once! Whatever works for you.

Questions for the comments:
1) Which piece from Round 16 is your favorite?
2) What is your happy place?
They are all so lovely. I am glad I’m not the one who has to choose a winner 💚🐛
Haha, it’s SO hard!!
I love these! Oh my gosh, cats and mail are welcome in my happy place too! These make me realize I have several happy places in my life to appreciate already. XO
Totally, right?! Thank you for participating!
This was a fun exercise. Thank you for doing it and honestly, I hardly win anything so this was an added bonus!
I’m so happy to add some extra excitement to it! Thank you so much for participating. I hope you’ll join us for Round 17!
I would have voted for the winter themed one. Looks so cozy! I had fun and just signed up for the next round. 😁
That was a great one! Thanks for signing up!
Heya, I signed up for round 17, but I didn’t receive the envelope until a couple days ago and I see I missed the deadline o: (yay living in Alaska!)
Would you want me to just do round 18 instead, or still create something for 17?
Thank you 🙂
E-mailing you!
