Last weekend I bought a really cute stationery set by Tokidoki. When I saw it I couldn’t pass it up. With writing personal letters becoming a lost art, I thought I’d do my part to not let it slip farther away from me.
Tokidoki Stationery Set
I always find it nice to receive letters from friends and family. It sure beats getting expensive bills. And I’m sure the recipients of my letters will feel the same way. I know with stamp price going up and up it seems like “what’s the point of paper and a pen” I think the point is that it’s super personal and requires some extra time and thought to do and that truly means something in this fast pace gotta have it instantly time we live in.
For me writing letters shows I care a lot about the recipient. Unlike an email were I can quickly go to my email program quickly type a sentence or two and then press send and that’s it; a letter requires me to take time out of my schedule to sit down, truly think about what I’m going to say and then personally write it out. It seems more human.
Letters can be as simple as saying “hi, how you doing” or as detailed as to tell an interesting experience you encountered but what ever is written, it’s done with such care and thought. And that’s really special and lacking now a days.
Afraid you have nothing to say? Don’t sweat the small stuff. It’s more about the other person receiving something that you took time to create.
So, grab your favorite pen or pencil and a fun and interesting stationery set and get to writing your family and friends.
If anything, it is an excellent excuse to buy these beautiful stationary sets, as if you needed one.
