National Letter Writing Month, 2014

I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I nearly missed the fact that April is National Letter Writing Month! In a slight defense of myself, it's been a really busy month. Holidays, Spring Break, family visiting, writing a blog post everyday this month, regattas nearly every weekend, running a household and a business... whew! April has been a fabulously busy month. That stated, it's still tragic that I didn't pay better attention to a recognition so important to my business; Letter Writing!

The month is not over so there's still time to write and mail letters. There are 8 days left in the month and I vow to write and post 2 letters per day (on average). Some days might have 3 or 4 letters posted, and some of those days don't have postal service. Sixteen letters written and posted before May 1, 2014 may sound like a big task, but it's not impossible. I certainly have more than 16 loved ones and friends that would enjoy a handwritten note from me, right?

Who would like to join me in paying tribute to National Letter Writing month? Even if you write a handful of letters and post them, that would be fun! As a fun gift for the remaining days of April, I will include with every order of stationery purchased from Easton Place, a coordinating pen and a set of Easton Place pencils at no charge! NOW, who's with me?

Almost Ready

I had hoped I'd be writing today's post to announce the relaunch of Easton Place stationery and the arrival of the new products. Unfortunately, that's not the case. It looks like the reopening will happen Monday or possibly Tuesday. Life gets busy and my family's needs must come before my business needs. It's how I choose to balance things. It's what's best for my life and most certainly for my family. What I can tell you is that I'm really excited to show you everything! There are new designs and I've brought back a few stationery designs from a while ago. I also have custom rubber stamps rolling out along with accessories (e.g. inks & cleaning kits). For the hostess I'll be offering custom/personalized placemats which I'm SO excited to show you! As for gifts, I'll be bringing in round glass paperweights. And finally, I'll be offering writing pens. If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you might have read about the paperweights and pens. In case you missed it, have a look below.

This is my friend Lisa Adam's dog, "Lucy the Corgi". Isn't her smile the best?

Staedtler Triplus Fineliner pens are my favorite! I'll be offering 8 colors.

One last reminder: The #EastonPlaceLove Instagram contest ends at midnight tonight (April 5, 2013). Tweet about it and tell your Facebook friends to vote for your photo! Good luck!

Wishing everyone a fabulous weekend. I will be busy finishing uploading photos and type for all the new items as well as cheering on my son's crew team in his first regatta of the season! What are your fun (or not so fun) weekend plans? Feel free to share in the comments below.
