I know I'm dating myself here, but way back when on the postal Yahoo group we started this thread of Postal Ring ideas.
Ended up gathering 365 ideas.

Anyone game for giving this another go?

I'll start:
1.State Flowers
2.Humorous Quotes
3.My Favorite Book Series

Hmm. I'm going to have to look at the calendar and maybe do another rendition of this ring. I've also enjoyed the naked letterboxing ring you hosted (still have one more box to go!) and would totally do that again since my post office never rejected a package :) But maybe add a twist where the stamp has to relate to the package which somehow relates to your trailname?! Oh the possibilities!

I've got a few!

-Tessellations (I made one as an experiment and would love to see what other people come up with! Design instructions in the link if you have no idea what I'm talking about)
https://www.math.nmsu.edu/~pmorandi/math112f00/EscherRectangle.html
-Stars, planets, and space
-Robots in peril
-Create your own super hero
-Favorite meme

Yeah... I know my ideas are kinda out there. I guess I like the idea of encouraging people to design their own stamps since those are my favorite.

- misheard lyrics
- pressured to politics (who would you want to be in political office/running the country if you could hand pick them and why)
- laughing at ourselves (do something out of the blue, for you, and create a postal on this - use a gouge if you are a knife carver, etc., give yourself permission to try something new and make mistakes)
- bucket list
- AQ themes
- favorite joke
- biggest life regret
- funniest life moment
- Meaning of life
