Letter Perfect

There is something about stationary that has a place in my heart. I feel like because we are in such a fast paced digital world the art of writing and receiving letters is almost lost. During my engagement and wedding planning I was able to indulge in stationary and it has forever inspired me. As a rule I think that everyone should have a set of classic "Thank You" cards on hand and a simple set of blank cards. You never know when you'll need them.

Kate Spade - I love what can I say, these are some pieces that have caught my eye and are worth picking up and having on hand.

I also really love personalized stationary. It's a perfect gift for someone you care about. For my mothers birthday last year I gave her a set of personalized stationary.  A simple monogram in navy blue, it's come in handy and it's a little personal touch when sending written correspondence (which is so rare these days). Crane & Co. has an AMAZING personalized stationary line that is worth checking out and purchasing some pieces from, either for yourself or as a gift. It makes a fantastic birthday gift or housewarming present.  Here are a few of my favorite items from the collection:

Hope you're inspired to pick up some of these charming pieces and write your loved one's a sweet note. After all, usually the mail is filled with bills or junk so it is such a nice treat to open the mail and find a note from someone you care about! xo
