The Art of Letter Writing and Stationery

 

I'm happy to see the rekindling of the 

art of letter writing.

I bought a pretty, flowery box from Michaels

to keep my collection of cards and letters in.

 

I have quite a few greeting cards

I've saved over the years from different family members.

Some that have passed on now and

I'm so glad I have those to see their handwriting. 

I love to see the different handwriting styles

from different generations.

It's also fun to notice the different card styles they choose.

It says something about their personality.

 

Letters and cards from children

are some of the best ones to receive.

I love the "L" in uncle!

This is from my niece and nephew

who are now high school/college age.

Some of my favorite items to design 

are stationery sets.

Nice quality thick paper that has lines

on both sides.

 Envelopes with the matching floral print inside.

You can change the color of the envelope, too.

And finish with a custom return address sticker

with the same floral pattern.

Letter writing is a healthy creative outlet and

you touch someone else's life with joy.

There are letter writing societies, clubs, and pen pal groups

that are keeping this tradition alive. 

USPS has a Directory of letter writing societies 

and there are fun websites to visit

to buy unique supplies, even wax seals.

You can get yourself a pretty box to gather your supplies,

fix a cup of tea, background music, and 

meditate on what you'd like to write.

People really do enjoy getting meaningful 

letters and cards in the mail.
