I have a wonderful memory of when my dear friend Dana sent me a vintage Valentine. It came in the mail and was so unexpected and so wonderful that I've never forgotten it.
We didn't exchange Valentines or letters, really, but she came across an old fashioned Valentine and knew it would make my day.
Have you mailed something to a friend lately? A note can go a long way to lift someone's spirits and tell them that you think of them fondly.

I wanted to write a special thank you note to a friend, so I went to my stationary basket and pulled out these gorgeous wooden postcards. That's right. Wooden postcards. Have you ever seen any? They are handmade from two pieces of 1/200th (.005) thick Birch veneer. They are smooth and light and have a wonderful feel to them. They are the standard postcard size and I believe that they can be mailed with a postcard stamp - I'll find out for sure this afternoon!
Aren't they beautiful? They each feature a different botanical stamp of an illustration by artist Dana Harter. I tried to find an online link for you to order some for yourself (I bought mine in a gift shop in northern Michigan) but the only information I could find is: Dana Harter P.O. Box 266 White Pine, MI 49971
I write on these wooden postcards with a fine tip permanent ink Sharpie so that my heartfelt message will last as long as the wood will!
