When it comes to paper stationery products, greeting cards seem to get all of the attention. To be fair, it’s not without good reason- they serve a very specific purpose and are the most traditional method of giving greetings for big occasions like birthdays, weddings, babies, thank you’s and whatever other life events someone is celebrating. I instead want to give some attention to the hard-working, underrated, and more versatile (in my honest opinion) notecard.

There are certain times when I tend to need reminders about pluralizing last names to mail letters, cards, or parcels, and the holidays are by far the most noticeable time of the year. I’ve put together this little list to share for those of you who are also regular mail senders and might want a cheat sheet!
