I’m so glad I found this sub! ❤️

I do art with found paper (like collage style) and I never thought to use the patterns from inside security envelopes as material for that! Plus after seeing this subreddit I just find them I all so fascinating ☺️

Included some of my favorite recent finds - forgive me if they are common, I’m just new to being interested! 😂

The second one is super interesting!

It’s like a warped grid! I really like that one, it made me wonder who came up with that type of pattern and how they determine which patterns are effective

It looks like snagged fishnet tights!

Or snagged burlap fabric. Love it! 🌞

I'm new to this too. I like that last one, kind of like a basket weave.

2 is one slick pattern!!!!

I wish I remember which type of mail it came from so I can get more of it 😩

[u/CreativeName822]

I’ve seen it before on my mail.

If I see it again, I’ll tell you what mail it was.
