Handwritten addresses-need I say more?

What mail gets opened first? The fancy envelope with the pre-printed address sticker or the plain envelope with the handwritten address? Handwriting always grabs my attention and I'm excited to see what's inside: an invite to a party, a friend's art opening, a gala where I get to wear jazzy shoes?

Here at DIY Good Taste, we encourage our clients to hand-address all their invitations. Whether it's stunning calligraphy inked by a professional or printing carefully done at your kitchen table, a handwritten address is personal. It shows a level of caring and forges a human connection. It's your opportunity to reach out to your guests even before they open the envelope. They anticipate the contents just because you took the time to put pen to paper. What better way to start the celebration?
