Why it’s totally worth it to spend the extra time putting pen to paper

In today's digital world, the act of sending a handwritten note card may seem like a relic from the past. But let me ask you something — the last time you got a handwritten note in the mail, how did it make you feel? My guess is that at minimum, it put a smile on your face. And that’s a good thing, right?

So if you’re ever debating on whether or not to fire off a text vs. sending a handwritten note, here are five reasons to spend the extra time putting a pen to paper:

Handwritten notes are much more personal: In a world filled with emails, texts, and social media notifications, getting a handwritten note card stands out as a refreshing and personal gesture. The effort and thoughtfulness put into crafting something from the heart create a much deeper sense of connection, and pen on paper conveys a genuine and meaningful sentiment that text messages lack.
Handwritten notes can be cherished for years to come: A physical note card can be revisited time and time again. And because it’s tangible, the recipient of your card can experience a genuine emotional connection each time they revisit it. I don’t know about you, but I always stash away special cards in a box for safekeeping and re-read them every now and again.
Handwritten notes allow you to show off your personal style: Why not add a bit of flair to your communications? When you write a handwritten note on personalized stationery, you are able to showcase your personality, unique sense of style, and penmanship.
Handwritten notes help build stronger relationships: Whether it's expressing gratitude, celebrating milestones, or offering words of encouragement, a handwritten message demonstrates sincerity, care, and investment in the relationship. It leaves a lasting impression and shows the recipient that they hold a special place in your heart!
Handwritten notes bring back the feeling of nostalgia and timelessness: In an age where instant gratification is the norm, getting a handwritten note card in the mail can transport someone to a place where moments were savored, and relationships cherished. It brings back a sense of connection to our shared human history, making it a truly special and treasured experience.
