I just came across a great gift for mom. It is some of the most beautiful flower cards. I’m in love with the assortment and the amount of colors and flowers that are included in the selection. I can tell their printing on nice paper and that they are very high quality yet they are so inexpensive!
Knowing that they are letterpress printed, I would expect them to be very expensive but I notice that their only about a dollar a card. That’s a total deal. This year I will probably get some of these cards for my mother for mothers day. They would also be good for birthday though or even for my sister. Usually all go down to the grocery store at the last minute and by the standard card for about $4.00. That’s a total rip off. So this year I’m trying to plan ahead and get are something that she will really like. I know she likes gardening and she has lots of flowers and loves roses as well. Floral stationery will be perfect and the great thing is, they don’t need to be taken care of.
In fact, one of my favorite flowers is the sunflower. They even have a sunflower stationery available as well as a poppy, dandelion and a bouquet of floral stationery. The great thing about stationery is it forces you to keep in touch with your friends and family. If you have a sitting on the desk your more inclined to use it and not having it. So I might even get some for myself so I can be better at keeping in touch with friends and family.
I may write one or two notecards a year, but overall I haven’t been good about keeping in touch with my friends and my family. I will see them around Easter and at Christmas, but it’s always good to write a note like I used to do in high school well as a way a boarding school. A handwritten note just says something different that says something more and I think they appreciate the sincerity of a note card.
The great thing as I can get to a three boxes and only spend $30 are $45.00 and be done with my mother’s day gift. If a got her flowers, the flowers would be dead in about two days or at the most, a week. This way my mom can keep writing and using stationery all year long and always think of me.
