The tradition of sending Christmas cards dates back to the 1840s, when Sir Henry Cole designed the first mass-produced card. This tradition has endured, becoming a cherished way to share holiday cheer and personal messages. Our Classic Christmas Cards collection embodies this timeless appeal, with high-quality materials and traditional designs that evoke warmth and nostalgia.

Are Christmas Cards Still a Thing?

Despite the rise of digital communication, physical Christmas cards remain popular. According to a Washington Post article, the tactile nature of a paper card and its ability to tell a story about the sender's family make it a cherished tradition. Americans send 1.6 billion holiday cards annually, showing that the personal touch of a physical card can't be replaced by digital alternatives.

Christmas Card Etiquette

Sending Christmas cards involves a few key etiquette points. Diane Gottsman from the Protocol School of Texas suggests mailing cards two weeks before the holiday to ensure timely delivery. Include a personal note or at least a handwritten signature to make the card feel special. When addressing envelopes, use proper titles and ensure names are spelled correctly. It's also acceptable to send holiday greetings to friends of different cultures, using inclusive phrases like "Season's Greetings."
