Today's collection is of letters! There is something so wonderful about a handwritten letter. I think because snail mail is sent so much less since we have emails. You really have to be intentional about sending a actual letter these days! There were so many beautiful images of letters, I am breaking this up into a couple parts. Hope you enjoy this collection!

ReplyDeleteOH yes! my heart beats faster just at the sight of hand written letters. And when there's a stack of them? Forgetaboutit!
ReplyDeleteThese are so inspiring and gorgeous. I love handwritten letter, though I've never received one. There is something so appealing about that old idea of pen pals.

I adore letters and letter-writing! These pics are gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteLooove these beautiful photos! The handwritten letter is one of my favorite things ever! Nothing is better than opening your mailbox and finding such a thrill :) Cheers to snail mail! xo
ReplyDeleteI miss receiving good old snail mails. These pics are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI might have to start sending letters and postcards again.
ps: you've a very lovely blog!
me too. What you feel when you receive a mail it is not the same when you check your email.
ReplyDeleteSeeing beautiful photographs of letters is SO inspiring! I wish I could take better pictures of my own. I have always been drawn to photos of letters, writing desks, stationery, or people writing or reading letters. I LOVE this collection!! :)
ReplyDeletePS--I think it's great you worked to find the correct link to the first picture. I enjoyed looking at the photographer's Flickr photos!
ReplyDeleteLovely post.
ReplyDeleteLast time I handwrote a letter or postcard was years ago to a friend. I wish I had time to start doing so again.
I am literally obsessed with handwritten letters. The thing is, I'm an introvert/homebody. My friends go for long periods of time without seeing or hearing from me, so I use handwritten letters to stay connected until we meet again. I also send other handmade goodies by mail, but it's mostly letters and cards just to say hello. They love it. Or at least I think they do. No gifts have been returned as of yet lol. I'm so glad to have found this blog. It is my essence :)
ReplyDeleteThese are such beautiful pictures, and remind me of my own stack of letters that I have kept sent by my husband to me...not quite as visual, but they're the first objects I'd save if my home were on fire! i still get a buzz when I receive a handwritten letter!
ReplyDeleteLove that picture of the bundle of letters in the middle.
ReplyDeleteThat makes my heart sing!! I love mail and sending out cute stationery! The little kids mailing the letters is too cute for words! I save every letter I get and put it in my shoebox since I was a kid. It's fun to go thru and reminisce. One day I hope my kids see how enjoyable writing is! Gorgeous, gorgeous photos!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I have boxes of them from my guy, I bundle them in groups with red yarn and they make my heart so happy! One upside of a long-distance romance. <3
ReplyDeleteI have thousands of postcards on my blog too ...

This is all very new to me and this article really opened my eyes.Thanks for sharing with us your wisdom.
ReplyDeleteThis is so adorable! I too miss getting real letters. I remember when my cousins and I write letters to each other. Such sweet memories.
ReplyDeleteSnail mail is the best, I love sending my Friends little letters no matter close or far they are! And bunch of letters look awesome!
ReplyDeleteHandwritten letters are so special. We just found my grandfather's love letters he sent to my grandmother when he was away at War. They were married 67 years.. <3
