With the more casual attitudes that exist in society today, one of the most common elements of “good manners” is often overlooked – the thank you note. There are many excuses – too busy, I don’t want to waste paper, no one cares if I say thank you and on and on. The thank you note is as important today as it was 100 years ago – how often have you given a gift and felt a little slighted because the recipient didn’t say thank you? Luckily, email thank you notes are widely accepted and make it super simple to be polite and with MeebleMail email stationery are as stylish as paper stationery.

Once you have your email stationery, writing a thank you note can be short and sweet, below is what I wrote to my Aunt to thank her for a vase she sent me for Christmas.

Dear Anita,

Thank you for the beautiful Nambe vase you sent for Christmas. You won’t believe how beautiful it looks filled with flowers – I think tulips and calla lilies look best because their simplicity matches the style of the vase. Thanks so much for your thoughtful gift.

Love,
Sharon

This year, my family is celebrating Thanksgiving with one of his sisters.  I am bringing all the sides (except for the stuffing).  I am bringing a little Southern Comfort food to the celebration this year.  I am most excited about the Roasted Sweet Potatoes with a Molasses Glaze and the Twice Baked Potato Casserole.  I am sure there will be some serious food comas and napping going on after this meal.  I sent our Thanksgiving Menu to the rest of the family for their approval on Autumn Harvest email stationery from The Bonnie Marcus Collection.  I get hungrier every time I see the menu.  What are your Thanksgiving favorites and traditions?

I don’t know about you, but sometimes the thought of writing thank you notes sends me into a panic – what should I write, how long should it be and how quickly do I need to get it out.

As Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa gifts are coming from friends and family – it’s easy to get behind on expressing our appreciation.  While you should try to send thank-you notes within a week – better late than never definitely applies.  Even if it’s been several weeks, a month or even more, you should still send a note. There’s no need for excuses if you’re late – just apologize and move on. Your recipient will be happy to have their gift acknowledged.

Email thank you notes are definitely acceptable in this day and age and can make sending those them much easier, greener and less expensive (no stamps).  MeebleMail has a collection of festive email stationery – just right for the occasion!
