    whatever about the paper type, I think love letters should be written by hand - or did you mean online printing of the stationery that you will write the letter on?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    I find trying to write a letter whilst in motion is very difficult so yes I would advise writing it whilst stationary.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,653 ✭✭✭✭amdublin


    Aww such a nice thought! How about you buy some nice stationary for a tenner and buy a btl of perfume for the 100-200and give that with the letter.

    I just think you are wasting money on the paper - the intended recipient will not recognize it's value.

    I'd love to get a love letter. The most I got off my boyfriend was a few scrawled lines in a Christmas card with "Don't tell anyone I said this or they'll think I'm homo/soft"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 218 ✭✭kinkygirl


    Write on the back of a Lidl receipt. That would melt any girls heart..swoon.

    No, I have seen somewhere that you can write your message and it will be printed like embossed gold/silver writing, if that makes sense.

    What a moving sentiment.

    I once wrote a love letter in biro on A4 foolscap, that made a man run out of his office to catch the next train down from Dublin to see me.

    *sighs*

    1) Find a wild animal (squirrels are the best)
    2) Skin animal
    3) Cure the skin
    4) Stretch and tan the hide until leathery
    5) Find rare bird
    6) Capture and extract healthy feather
    7) Stab finger
    8) Mix blood with rare ochre
    9) Write love letter with new quill ink and paper.
    10) Hope girl is not vegan.

    I'd suggest you roll the letter up like a scroll with a pink ribbon and attach it to a bottle of Romance (Ralph Lauren).

    If you are male do the above.

    If you are female let me know and will give another suggestion.

    Like, where? :confused:

    where people dont take piss of sentiments.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,753 ✭✭✭davet82


    unless your gf is a some sort of nerd writer or novelist this 200 euro will be wasted, buy her jewellery and e-mail her would be my advice :)

    handwritten is my choice but atleast if I find a special paper will make me happy. Its for wife and its for anniversary...

    It's a nice thought OP, and I love the smell of a ream of fresh paper and the haptic satisfaction of pressing a pen into it.

    The expense should really be in the words you write on it. Sounds like you want to write your letter on something that will last a long time...

    but please bear in mind that it could end up in a forgotten in a drawer or shoebox, or eventually thrown out.

    Why not write it on seed paper, so the recipient can plant it and give it a better life?

    My suggestion:
    Buy nice paper - easons might be able to help you
    Nice pen (not biro) - maybe even a gold pen?!
    Nice gift or perfume or jewellery which will remind her of the letter every time she wears it

    Happy anniversary!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 634 ✭✭✭VampiricPadraig


    I am not trying to be funny or even trolling, but for a valentine's day letter, I would simply get:

    This "Premium" paper
    Some Pink/Red glitter gel pens
    And just in case you are stuck for words, there is even a Love Letter Generator

    Also attach some bows left over from Christmas and spray the letter with some cheap €1.99 spray!

    Good Luck :)
