Got your thank you notes done? If not, we can help you bee on it.

When the holidays are over, the very best thing you can do to assure yourself a spot on next year's invite list is to send a thank you note. Sure, it is tempting to dash off an email to say "Dinner was divine!" but there is something more meaningful and not much more difficult that you can do. Write a short, sincere note to your host or hostess, the gift givers and especially your Mom and Dad.

This flat notecard (top) from Dauphine Press has just enough space to say, "The cashmere scarf is fabulous!" or "You were so great to take the kids to the Nutcracker". The Napoleonic bee is stylish without being precious, and the goldenrod color makes it suitable for men and women. The playful design from Curly Girl (below) will remind anyone you know that the gift bottle of wine was perfect for your holiday celebration.

The postman will thank you too.
