THE HANDWRITTEN SERVICE
All the thought. None of the faff.
You choose the card and share your message with me.
I’ll handwrite it, address the envelope, add a real stamp, a little wax seal, and post it for you.
Thoughtful, personal, and taken care of — beautifully.
To make your life even easier: let me remember all your important dates and send you a reminder in time to show them you care!
HOW IT WORKS
You choose. I take care of the rest.
1. Choose your card
Pick the Fairhaven card that feels right for the person and the moment.
2. Tell me what to say
Give me your message for me to handwrite, or you can upload a photograph of a message in your own own handwriting for me to print in the card, their name and address, and when you’d like the card to arrive.
3. Leave it with me
I’ll print your card, add your personal message, address the envelope by hand, add a real stamp & wax seal, and post it at the right time.
WHY FAIRHAVEN?
Convenience without losing the personal bit.
There are plenty of quick ways to send a card online. Fairhaven is a little different.
Your card isn’t filled in by a machine or sent in a generic printed envelope. I sit down and handwrite your words, address the envelope, add a real stamp, and prepare it as though you had done it yourself.
Because the point isn’t simply to get a card through someone’s letterbox.
It’s to make them feel that someone thought of them.
FOR REAL LIFE
For the times you care — but life gets in the way
The birthday you remembered while driving to work.
The friend you suddenly realised needs a little lift.
The thank-you you’ve been meaning to send for weeks.
The person you love, even when you simply don’t have the time or ability to shop, write and post a card yourself.
Fairhaven sits in that little gap between meaning to do something thoughtful and actually getting it done.
You still choose the card.
You still choose the words.
I simply make sure it happens.
YOUR WORDS
Still completely yours.
I handwrite the message you give me, or add your message in your own handwriting — I don’t turn it into something more polished, sentimental, or “better”.
Your words are the important bit.
So whether it’s heartfelt, funny, short and sweet, or ends with far too many kisses, that’s exactly what goes into the card. Don’t worry about it being personal either: I am not judgy & very discreet!
Just give names, dates, and spelling one final check before you order.
What people are saying
a genuine pleasure…
“Receiving a card in the post was a genuine pleasure. My sister always forgets my birthday, so it was such a surprise that it was from her — and the card was beautiful. Very thoughtful!”
like a letter from the King….
“The handwritten card from Fairhaven Studio was so lovely. The envelope was handwritten, it had a real stamp, and the wax seal on the back made me feel like I was getting a letter from the King! The handwritten message was beautifully written, and I could tell the words were from my loved one.”
from a real person not a machine…
“Thank you for providing such a brilliant service. I am disabled and find it hard to get out to buy and post cards. Now I have all my dates saved on your website and all my loved ones receive handwritten cards on my behalf, from a real person, not a machine.”
