Learn how to send a letter



Post It Today!

When was the last the last time you posted a letter or perhaps received one? How did it make you feel? Today, technology has significantly faded out the once traditional method of delivering messages. However, wouldn’t you want to relive the experience or perchance share it with the new generation?

How To Send a Letter

The process of sending a letter is quite simple, given the fact that you follow each step correctly. But first, let’s grab a few things from our stationery corner.

Things You’ll Need:
  • Envelope- preferably letter size
  • Pencil/Pen
  • Clear tape



Step 1:
Create a message for the receiver. In the case of writing to an informal letter, you may want to begin by asking the question: How are you?

Step 2:
Fold your letter and place it in the envelope. Then, here is my favourite part: Lick and seal the envelope.

Step 3:
Write the name and address of the recipient at the front of the envelope, just below the right corner.

Step 4:
Write your name (sender) and address on the upper left corner of the envelope.
By now, your envelope should be looking like this:

Step 5:
Purchase a stamp that matches the destination of your letter. Then, stick the stamp in the upper right corner of your envelope (just above the recipient’s address).

Step 6:
Place the envelope in your mailbox or hand it to the postal worker. *If your mailbox has a red flag on it, raise the flag to show that you have an outgoing mail.

Now, that you’ve posted your letter, simply wait for your recipient’s reply. Depending on the destination and class of stamp purchased, your waiting time may vary; sometimes 3 days or more.

I really enjoy the process of sending a letter. Personally, I think it’s a very clever, romantic and wise way of getting our messages across. But, don’t just take my word for it, go ahead & post it today!!!
