Writing a birthday thank you note is easy! There are just a few simple steps to follow to ensure your thank you notes are perfect. Read on to create your ideal note.

Be thoughtful

Make sure that your notes are thoughtful, and suit the person you're writing to. When writing a lot of thank you notes, it can be easy to forget who you're writing to. Make sure to always keep things kind and considerate.

Personalise it

Sending a generic thank you note can do more harm than good!

Birthday guests will love receiving a beautiful note that's personal to them. We recommend you mention what the present was, and how you will use it.

E.G. replace 'Thank you so much for my amazing gift! I love it.' to 'Thank you so much for my new game! I can't wait to play it with my friends.' This will make your birthday guest feel appreciated and special.

Make it fun!

Don't forget to make it fun. Why not add a funny pun or joke into your note to add some humour. Not all of your notes need to be the same!

If the person you are writing to came to your party, why not send them some photographs of the event. They will definitely love to see them and will treasure your note and photograph for years to come!

Keep it short

Writing out lots of birthday thank you notes can drag! To speed up the process, keep your notes short but sweet. One paragraph should be enough to show your gratitude.
