the conversation tin

On the shop and restaurant lined street called Abbott Kinney in the urban beach town of Venice beach, there's a little jewel box of a stationers shop called "Urbanic".
For the last few years, it's been the go-to spot for beautiful letter press stationary, invites, paper goods, unique gifts, desktop items and countless amounts of fantastic things you didn't know you needed....but do.
Recently, proprietress and "Parcel Post" blogger, Audrey Woolen asked if I would be interested in participating in the 'The Conversation Tin'- a product created by her sister, Anastasia, from an idea that begin with a cross country road trip and a newish boyfriend.
"They barely knew each other at that time, so before they left, they made a big coffee tin and asked their friends and random people to drop secret questions and conversation topics into it. During the course of their trip they would take turns picking out of the tin and discussing.."
The idea was such a success that Anastasia began packaging and manufacturing the product to share with others*.

Today on Parcel Post, Audrey posted the questions and answers that I chose.....and you can check them out here
