Stationery: DIY

I love snail mail. I, like most of you, send emails all day, everyday, all night, every night, but there is something about receiving a hand-written letter in the mail. I, personally, love it and wish it happened more often. The other day I realized I was almost all out of my stationery, and decided to make some of my own. I’ll warn you now; this could be the easiest DIY project one could find, but I absolutely love how my new (inexpensive) stationery turned out. All you need is card stock in any color or pattern you like (I went with more of a Fall color scheme and kept it very clean and simple), rubber stamps of your choosing, ink pads in any color you like, and scissors to cut the paper. Within minutes you’ll be ready to write a letter.

    There is nothing more classic and high class than getting any kind of “note” whether it is a thank you, condolence card, congratulations, etc. than getting it on a nice piece of stationary via snail mail. It might be getting to be a thing of the past, however, I will never forget the style and grace from a hand written note. Thanks for drawing attention to it!
