How to Celebrate World Letter Writing Day
World Letter Writing Day 1st September 2025 is a wonderful opportunity to slow down, connect with others, and rediscover the simple joy of putting pen to paper. Whether you’re a seasoned letter writer or new to the art, here are some creative and meaningful ways to celebrate with a little help from your favourite eco friendly stationery.
1. Write a Letter to Someone Special
Take a moment to send a handwritten note to a friend, family member, or even someone you haven’t seen in a while. A simple “thinking of you” can brighten anyone’s day and create a lasting memory.
2. Try a Letter-Writing Challenge
Set yourself a goal. Perhaps writing three letters in one day, or sending notes to people in different parts of the country (or world). This is a great way to reconnect and spread a little kindness.
3. Host a Letter Writing Gathering
Invite friends or family over for a cosy letter-writing afternoon. Set up your table with beautiful writing paper, colourful envelopes, pens, and stickers. Add some tea and treats for a truly memorable experience.
4. Encourage Children to Join In
Get little ones involved by giving them their own stationery sets, like our new Children’s stationery set designs featuring unicorns, pirates, and more. Let them write to grandparents, friends, or even a favourite author!
5. Support a Good Cause
Consider writing letters to residents in care homes, or to charities that distribute uplifting notes to people who need a boost. It’s a small act that can make a big difference.
6. Share Your Letter Writing on Social Media
Show your love for handwritten notes by sharing photos of your letters or writing space on Instagram or Pinterest. Use hashtags like #WorldLetterWritingDay and tag @MakingMeadowsUK. Let’s inspire more people to join in!
7. Treat Yourself to New Stationery
Celebrate the day with a fresh set of eco friendly writing paper, envelopes, and stickers. Having beautiful supplies can make the process even more enjoyable and spark your creativity.
Why It Matters
Letter writing is more than just words on a page, it’s a mindful, meaningful way to connect. In a fast-paced digital world, taking time to write by hand shows care and thoughtfulness, and helps keep this lovely tradition alive.
