RSVP Collection No. 56 - The Lost Art of Conversation



I believe there is a lost art of conversation that is not so difficult to rediscover. We have allowed time to rob us of the handwritten note. The simplicity of other avenues of communication have given our stationary a drawer with cobwebs. We create spaces in our homes that lean into our lifestyle. Though often we forget to create areas that encourage conversation, both face to face and written.








Love letters have become almost extinct. The rom-com movies that feature a box with ribboned letters of sincere feeling that are read over and over again, seem like an out of touch scene in today's society. I am convinced that a big reason for the lost art of conversation is because we forget to carve out that niche in our homes that allow a writing surface and seat that invite us to correspond. 







The welcome space for a handwritten note on beautiful stationary is due it's renewed discovery. This space is not one of clutter. This space can be tucked almost anywhere it fits our lifestyle. Like to cook or bake? Put this space in your kitchen. Like to enjoy your view? Your desk facing a window is the perfect spot. 







I have a warning for you when you RSVP to the lost art of conversation. You will become paper obsessed. And you will delight in the discovery of the perfect pen that glides across your beautiful stationary. It will become more than just the obligatory thank you card. 








So find your space, select your writing surface and perfect perch and you will rediscover the lost art of conversation. Add a book or two on letter writing to inspire!
