I love stationary. I never (ever) finish a pack before I buy a new one, and my current obsession are letterpressed cards. usually, this is not an obsession that is particularly useful because there are not that many opportunities to send letters or notes.
thankfully, thank you notes, at least to your grandparents, are still required to be handwritten. and really, everyone likes pretty things (stationary), to be thanked for gifts they've given, and to receive mail. thank you notes are a win-win-win.
here are (updated) Emily post guidelines on when sending a thank you note is appropriate (always), and below are some of my favorite thank you note choices this season.
3. Dutch Door 
4. HAMMERPRESS 
5. afavorite 
7. egg press 
9. CRANE & Co. 
and remember, even if you don't feel like shelling out for cards, what really matters is the acknowledgment that someone spent time and/or money on you. so even if it's just on a piece of your regular stationary, or a plain piece of paper, write them a note!
10. Tiger Food Press
