I just ran across these Holiday Thank You postcards designed specifically for kids to fill out and send after the Holiday Season. I think they are FANTASTIC! They are simple, inexpensive and attractive to a little one. Kids are never to young to learn the act of writing a Thank You note and these little [...]
New Year Cards, that’s right, Christmas isn’t even here yet, but there’s no better time than now to buy your New Year Cards and get to writing and stamping. New Year Cards are another one of those opportunities to reach out through the snail mail that I believe is often overlooked. No doubt about it [...]
One of my friends recently asked me about personalized stationery for kids. Specifically, for her daughter who is 9 years old. First off, it’s always time to get young kids in the habit of writing little notes for any reason. Giving the young ones personalized stationery will help add a degree of ‘mine’ to the [...]
I absolutely love this postcard set. I first discovered them a few years ago and not a season has gone by that I haven’t grabbed a couple of these sets of postcards to add to my holiday correspondence cache. The picture will never do it justice, but there is glitter (not at all in a [...]
I get a lot of search traffic looking for what I consider the Holy Grail of writing stationery—Italian Amalfi Handmade Stationery. If you’ve come here wondering about it, let me tell you, there is nothing like Amalfi paper. It’s divine to the touch. It takes the ink from almost any type of pen like water [...]
I just came across these Holiday cards that to be honest, I wouldn’t send as my ‘official’ holiday cards. However, I think they will be perfect for sending quick notes during December and I had to have them. Simple, beautiful and timeless….meaning, if I don’t use them all this year, they will certainly work next [...]
I’ve come to rely on a few types of stationery that fall into the ‘old reliable’ category in my stationery arsenal. Everyone needs a stationery that is enjoyable in an all purpose—YET—elegant and respectable sort of way. Meaning, if I want to fire off a quick letter that perhaps isn’t long and drawn out, then [...]
I look at any holiday as a great opportunity to reach out to friends and loved ones through the snail mail system to brighten their day. I believe because Thanksgiving falls right before the Christmas season, it tends to get over looked in the card department. However, the basis of Thanksgiving should definitely be a reason to [...]
So I’ll just admit it. I have a special thing for natural handmade stationery. Well, maybe a ‘special thing’ is explaining it lightly. I have a very real attraction to a paper that feels like it has individuality and personality. Natural paper does that for me. The feel, the look, the way it absorbs ink [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, Etsy is a wonderful place to discover handmade and unique items. I like knowing I’m purchasing something that can’t be found in every department store or is run of the mill. What I also love about Etsy is the chance to run across something that isn’t necessary meant for one thing, but [...]
