041310-letter-writing-1.jpgAt my house, we do a pretty good job of writing and sending out birthday greetings in a timely fashion. We could do better in the thank-you note department, however. And as for personal, non-email correspondance... it's best not to speak of that. We're not alone. To combat letter-writing inertia, Teri, who runs the blog Giddy Giddy, created this beautiful station for herself and her girls.

041310-letter-writing-2.jpgTeri asked herself, "Would it make it easier and lovelier to sit down and write a note when all your cute stationary and letter writing tools are displayed in one place?"

To find out, she repurposed an old thrift-store brochure display rack to contain all her cards, envelopes, stationery, stickers, stamps, and other letter-writing accoutrements. So far, she reports that it definitely has her daughters eager to write letters.

How about you? Do you have a similar setup for organizing writing materials? More to the point: does it actually work?
