The postcards are great. The scalloped edges and not-perfectly-straight cut of the cards adds to the feeling of art engagement and gives a natural quality to the cards. I love using them with kids with the beeswax crayons (melting) and watercolour. I also use thenm in my own art-work.Thank you.I highly recommend these postcards.
Love the idea of having postcards ready for my grandchildren to draw on and send to me. So I ordered some as a Christmas gift for an artistic granddaughter. I was so disappointed when I received the first one. The slick surface on the front of the card makes it very hard for children to draw on it with crayons. The back of the card isn't coated, so at least one surface is easily used.

Dear Lori, We are so sorry that you were disappointed in this item. We have passed your concerns about the glossy side not working well with crayons directly on to the manufacturer. Our reviewers tried crayons, paint, markers, and colored pencils on these postcards. While all of these materials worked, markers produced the most vibrant images. A postcard from a grandchild is a treasure and we really want you to be happy. We have an unconditional guarantee, please contact Customer Service at 877-975-3003 or info@montessoriservices.com and they will assist you. Thank you very much for your feedback.
