Hand-written, Text or Email

Thank you notes are very simply notes and letters of appreciation and gratitude. Thank you notes are traditionally hand-written, though in recent years it is acceptable to send a thank you note through email or by text.

Thank you notes are usually sent in a variety of professional and social situations such as after a job interview or after receiving a wedding or a birthday gift.

How to Celebrate?

  • Hand write thank you notes. Be sincere and write from the heart. The recipients will appreciate having their efforts acknowledged.
  • If you can, why not add a small handmade gift for some of your recipients to thank them for their thoughtfulness?
  • If you don’t have the time, an email thank you note is better than sending no such note.
