I have something I have to admit to all of you. Something that I am not proud of. at all.
I’m terrible at writing handwritten letters. I never send thank you notes {I know, I told you I’m terrible!} and I even had to make it a goal of mine to send more letters and notes to people.
In an age of email and social networking everywhere, however, it’s not just me. Schools aren’t even focusing on handwriting anymore, which I think is so sad! There’s just something so charming, so sweet and meaningful, about receiving an actual card or letter. My mom still sends them, and they make me so happy every time she does. I obviously don’t take after her in that regard…
But, you can always change. And I’m planning on it.
I’m teaming up with Megan over at Freckled Italian to bring you all Lovely Letters: A Pen Pal Project. I’ve always thought that it would be fun to have a real life pen pal, and what better way than to get some fabulous bloggers in on the project?
Here’s how it’s going to work:
We’d love for you to join us in writing some lovely letters! So, if you’re interested, just email us your information (name, blog name and URL, email address, and physical address) to lovelyletters@acharmingoccasion.com. Once we receive your information, we’ll pair you off with a pen pal. How does that sound?
And, because you’re obviously committed to keeping the practice of writing letters alive, we’d love for you to put up a button to let everyone know. You should be proud of yourselves!
Can’t wait to hear from you!
