How to Decorate an Envelope

When giving a monetary gift, it is just as important to make your envelope look as nice as a large present. Here are some simple steps you can take to make that envelope sparkle.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Metallic pen- silver or gold
• Sticker seal or decorative sticker
• Ink stamp
• Ink
• Wax seal

1. Write that person's name neatly in the metallic ink for extra flare if handing it to them in person. If mailing, colorful ink should be just fine.
2. Seal the envelop with pizazz. Decorative seals are the simplest option. Make sure to match the metallic hue of your seal to your ink. Stickers are also a nice way to seal the envelope-- round ones tend to look best.
3. Get yourself a wax seal kit for a more sophisticated and classic look to an envelope. Imprinted wax seals really give an envelope an old fashioned flare.
4. Adding a nice ink stamp on the front always jazzes up a monetary gift. Purchase a nice ink stamp-- birds, butterflies, flowers, and other ornate designs will add that special finishing touch.
5. Decorate the envelope with stickers. Gather a selection that range from gorgeous to funny, and keep them ready for any time you need to decorate an envelope. The most unique and outrageous stickers are often the most appreciated.
6. Write the actual name in bubble letters or special cursive. This makes anybody feel special because a great amount of effort was personally put in by you to bring them the extra pleasure when receiving a gift of a greatly wrapped package or letter.
