Sarah Watson Envelopes

When writing your wedding invites, you'll no doubt want to get through the list as quickly as possible. Most of us faced with this task, would try to think which of our friends or family has the best handwriting and who we could rope into helping put their calligraphic skills into action. Remember the christmas card from Aunty June and how she curls her g's? Let's hope she has a day or two spare and is willing to embark on the task of writing over 100 cards and addresses for her distant niece!

Whilst not all of us are natural artists and many have borderline illegible handwriting (only you need to read it most of the time), there are some out there who just have the gift. Enter Sarah Watson, Brazil based designer with a specialty for hand lettering.




Her varied style of hand lettering would really stand out in your regular pile of morning mail. Whilst we may not have the cash to splash on commissioning a personal calligrapher to address all of our invites, why not take a pop at it yourself? Just make sure the postman can read it!
