Congratulations on your graduation! Mailing graduation announcements is a great way to share your achievement with friends, family, and loved ones. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to mail graduation announcements:

Materials needed:

• Graduation announcements (you can design and print your own or purchase pre-made ones)
• Envelopes (white or matching the color of your announcements)
• Stamps (first-class mail or priority mail)
• Address labels or stamps with addresses
• A pen or a label maker

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Address the envelopes: Write the recipient's name and address on the envelope using a pen or a label maker. Make sure to include the correct zip code.
2. Insert the announcement: Place the graduation announcement inside the envelope, making sure it's centered and not folded or creased.
3. Add a stamp: Affix a first-class mail or priority mail stamp to the upper right corner of the envelope. You can also use a label with the postage printed on it.
4. Add a personal touch (optional): Consider adding a personal note or a photo to the envelope to make it more special.
5. Mail the announcements: Take the envelopes to a post office or mailbox and mail them. Make sure to check the post office's hours and any special requirements for mailing.
