Love Letter Quote
A love letter quote from 1001 Love Letters:
“When I look deep in your eyes I can see how they shine every time you see me. And my heart is filled with happiness, as it feels reassured that all the affection I’ve devoted to you echoes in your kind heart…”
Love Letters when You’re Lost for Words
Love letters are few and far between these days, what with text messages, emails and IMs taking over. Nevertheless, love letters are still the best way to let someone know you love them. Sadly, love letters are also the hardest things in the world to write when you’re lost for words.
That’s when 1001 love letters comes in very handy. The site hosts a huge collection of love letters, providing categories like seduction letters, erotic letters, miss you letters, friendship letters, reconciliation letters, and many more. Some of the letters are very specific, so it’s worth browsing the site for words that fit your personal situation perfectly (for example “I don´t mind being the Other Woman”, “My mistake”, “To the love of my life” and even “Seducing my teacher” (!)).
Once you have found the love letter that perfectly expresses what you want to say, you can send it directly from the site. Of course you could also use the love letters as inspiration and base your own romantic prose on those ideas. After all, everyone gets text messages, emails and IMs, but by putting pen to paper you will really make an impression!
Love Letters in the Sand
Looking for an interesting way to declare your love? Not great at writing love letters? Then take your cues from sand artist ” Jim Denevan! He uses pieces of driftwood to create huge works of art on sandy beaches, which make a great impression when viewed from above. All works of art are free hand creations, without any use of scale or measure. He even created “the world’s largest freehand drawing” in Nevada.
When you’re on a beach with your boyfriend or girlfriend and you’re dying to declare your love, take the opportunity to write a creative love letter or create a piece of art in the sand. You don’t have to do the full Jim Denevan by covering miles and miles of beach. Sometimes a simple gesture is enough (see the little work of art at left ☺)!
Love Letters with Style
The thing about love letters is not only can they be incredibly hard to write, but there’s a fine line between a wonderfully romantic love letter and embarrassingly cheesy love-blind drivel. Avoid love letter clichee by putting your message to that special someone on stylish and tongue-in-cheek stationery from Old Tom Foolery (unsappy, uncrappy letterpress greetings).
Not only are the cards beautifully designed, each sentimental statement of love comes with a funny bit of fine print. For example, “I love you*”….”*Statement only valid if you say you love me back.”
There’s also a selection of Birthday, Anniversary and Wedding cards. (”Here’s to the bride and groom.*”…”*Thanks for all the free booze!”)
If you need more cool wedding ideas, the Brooklyn Bride is a treasure trove of fun and interesting ideas for a really cool wedding (even if you’re not cool enough to BE a Brooklyn Bride…)
