Thank You Note from a Precious Cheerleader
Posted on May 24, 2012 by admin in Stationery
Recently, my husband’s niece, Cailin, sent this thank you note to my in-laws. Isn’t it sweet? Cailin is a cheerleader for The Mints. This year, The Mints were named National Cheerleader Association (NCA) National Champions. These young ladies and their parents worked incredibly hard logging many, many miles in order to obtain their goal. Part of the path to the championship also involved raising money for uniforms, travel, etc.
Here’s a picture of Cailin at the beach.
As a way to say “thanks” for a donation to The Mints, Cailin sent this note. It’s a great reminder that it’s never too early to start learning how to express appreciation to others. Thanks for setting such a great example, Cailin!
Besides (or in addition to) writing a thank you note, are there other ways you have found to say “thanks”?
Xoxo,

Holiday Thank You Notes
Posted on December 16, 2011 by admin in UncategorizedDuring this time of year, many of us will be giving and receiving gifts. When on the receiving end, it is considerate and always polite to drop the gift-giver a note. If you are at a loss for what to write, we’ve got some suggestions to get you started! Read below for some sample holiday thank you notes from our book, Something New. These samples are geared for holiday themed gifts an engaged or newly married couple might receive, but these notes may be adopted for use by anyone! Let us know if they help you.
Sample #1:
Dear Mrs. Swanson,
Thank you for the vegetable bowl in the Spode Christmas Tree pattern you gave Frank and me for our wedding. I plan to use each Christmas piece we receive for our wedding during the holidays, even if it is just for Frank and me. I am hoping to host a Christmas party, though, to have a good excuse to use all our Christmas china pieces!
It was so kind of you to remember us with this special gift. Thank you for helping us celebrate our marriage.
Fondly,
Mallory

Sample #2:
Dear Mrs. Aronov,
Thank you for the beautiful Waterford crystal dreidel you gave Harry and me in celebration of our marriage. I displayed it just last week in time for the Hanukkah party we were hosting, and I received quite a few compliments on it. The way it sparkles under lights is just breathtaking!
We were so glad you and Mr. Aronov were able to make it to our wedding. Thank you again for your kindness and generosity.
Sincerely,
Charlotte

Sample #3:
Dear Mrs. Thomas,
George and I would like to thank you and Mr. Thomas for the beautiful, hand carved kinara you gave us for our wedding. This will make a wonderful centerpiece on our table when we are entertaining guests during Kwanzaa. The wood of the kinara blends so nicely with our wooden table!
We were so glad you were both able to come to the wedding. Thank you again for thinking of us during this special time in our lives.
Sincerely,
Stacey

A Note for Kim and Kris
Posted on November 9, 2011 by admin in UncategorizedFrom the latest headlines, it seems Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries are calling it quits on their marriage from this summer. According to reports, Kardashian and Humphries were married just 72 days before Kardashian filed for divorce. A question that has now been raised is: what should be done with the wedding gifts?
Probably the best practice is to return the gifts along with a thank you note, even if a thank you note was previously sent for the gift. Writing thank you notes and returning gifts during this difficult period may be quite draining, and having a set format will help the couple work through the letter writing process quickly. Here is an example of a thank you note a couple might find useful if they find themselves in a similar situation:
Dear Mrs. Roberts,
Thank you for the towel set you gave Jerry and me for our wedding. The towels are a beautiful color, and they feel so plush! However, please accept the return of this gift due to our impending divorce. We are saddened by this recent turn of events, but we appreciate your kind gesture of a lovely wedding present.
Sincerely,
Elaine
November 9
More thank you notes for brides will be available in our new book, Something New: A Bride’s Guide to Wedding Thank You Notes. We’ll have more information on the book in the next few weeks!
