beautiful thank you notes.

Now that the holidays have passed and the new year has begun, it’s time to get grateful! I usually spend part of the first weekend of January writing thank you notes to all those who were kind enough to give me something over the holidays.

Classic thank-you notes are always appropriate, and some of my favorites are included here. However, this year, I received a set of 100 patterned postcards for Christmas with work from ten artists that I think will be perfect for some of my thank-you notes. Not only will the note be nice, but the recipient can enjoy a little piece of artwork at the same time. (Plus, I’ve already pulled out a dozen or so that I must keep for my own files - pretty paper stock-up!)

May you have a wonderful first weekend of 2014!
