Ever wanted to customize your postage? Or perhaps for a project that you’re working on. I have looked into several places who offer custom postage but the cost just wasn’t worth the effect. Well, I just discovered a nice app called PictureItPostage by Endicia which allows you to use your iPhoto to create custom stamps without dealing with the third-party online vendor.

They also offer Picture It Postage for businesses! I love when I find new things and this just makes my day! It’s free to download and costs vary depending upon quantity and mailing rates.

Today I was doing some research for a project and came across a wonderful but unexpected source of inspiration. Vintage postage stamps. The best place to purchase them I found, was on eBay of course. If you’re looking for something new and unique try SeaJay Stamp and Coin on eBay.

All of the stamps will be available on royalmail.com/stamps and are scheduled to be released on Jan. 13 2009. Get your credit card and mouse-clicking finger ready! I have a feeling this will sell fast.
