Writing Thank You Notes

Thank you notes can be written on plain note paper in which case always choose good quality with matching envelopes when writing thank you notes . Alternatively use a thank you card with a simple image on the front and blank inside. Take care to choose something appropriate.

I would always suggest handwriting thank you notes. Draft your thank you note wording first and only when you are sure write the final version. Choose an ink colour that is easy to read such as blue or black. Think about buying a nice fountain pen if you don't already own one. It's important to write legibly; I know this can prove difficult if you have many notes to write such as wedding thank you notes.

Try and picture the person you are writing to as you are composing the note. This will help you find the right thank you wording. Remember the note doesn't have to be long. A few brief, but sincere lines is enough.

Thank You Note Writing

All thank you notes pretty much follow the same pattern, get that right and you're almost there.

1. Salutation: Dear (Name of person). If, however, you are writing to a close friend or you know the recipient, how about saying Hi Sarah for example.

2. Say thanks for the gift, flowers, chocolates, dinner, donation or whatever it is you would like to say thank you for.

3. Why and what you like about the gift and how you have put it to use. You can use some great adjectives here such as exquisite, amazing, beautiful, cuddly etc.

4. Show your appreciation.

6. Signature: I always sign off "Love" for close friends and family members. Other ways of signing off are, Sincerely, Kind regards or Best Wishes.

7. Don't forget to sign your name.
Have fun writing thank you notes for every occasion.
