Letter-writing Edition

I've had a very busy week, with two rounds of out-of-town guests, a great Thanksgiving, and outings that ranged from delicious donuts to a trip to the local science museum. My wife also found the time and energy to run two races in two days. I entered one of the races, but ended up mostly walking with our 6-year-old. It was fun and cold! I'm tired just thinking about it. I hope all is well with you and your family. I've got more new printables for you!

This week, I've added 28 new stationery designs to FreePrintableStationery.net, just in time for your holiday letter-writing. There are also a bunch of new borders at PageBorders.net that can be used as stationery as well for flyers and other purposes.

New Printable Stationery

I've added 28 new free stationery designs to FreePrintableStationery.net, in a wide variety of themes. Some of the printable stationery is for specific businesses (such as beautician, pest control, cakes, butcher, editing, and singer). Others have specific or abstract illustrations such as a cathedral or Celtic designs.

With this latest round of additions, there's now well over 400 designs to choose from at FreePrintableStationery.net. The site has everything from business stationery to religious stationery. There is plenty of holiday stationery, including Christmas and New Year stationery for those family letters. There is even stationery with matching business cards from FreePrintableBusinessCards.net.

Most of the stationery is full-color, while some is black-and-white. Everything at FreePrintableStationery.net is free to download and print. You can choose from lined or unlined stationery and type directly into it using Microsoft Word or another DOC-compatible word processing program.

Free Page Borders

PageBorders.net has a selection of new designs ready to be downloaded and used as letterhead, for flyers, as sign borders, or anything else you can think of. There are both free and paid, premium options depending on the file type you need.

There are now more than 300 designs at PageBorders.net, from holiday borders to dog borders. The newest borders include a tropical design, the Eiffel tower, food, flags, and more. There's also a large selection of party borders with gifts, candles, cupcakes, and balloons. These borders are ideal for forming the outline of a flyer for an office party, birthday wish, and so on.

All of the page borders have a free option, with most being available in DOC, PDF, PNG, and JPG formats. In most cases, an editable Adobe Illustrator version is available to download for $7. The AI files are great for those designers who wish to alter a border.

Thanks so much for your letters and your ideas for new printables. I really appreciate hearing from you. Happy printing!

Kudos

I love hearing how people use my printables. I've gotten a lot of emails about the new 2014 calendars , but one of my favorites comes from Jenneen H., who runs a day care. She wrote: "I just wanted to thank you for putting up the one-page calendars for 2014 that you did. I am getting the kids to draw a picture over the calendar and laminating it as a gift to the parents from the children. So, once again, thanks. Oh, and I also enjoyed the Christmas gift tags that were available too. The children picked out which ones they wanted to use."

Popular Printables

It's the time of year when many of the FreePrintable.net sites' most-downloaded printables are holiday-related, from gift tags to certificates to recipe cards . Last week, there were a lot of downloads of Thanksgiving and Hanukkah printables, and Christmas printables are naturally hot as well.

This week, I decided to take a closer look at what's popular at SantaPrintables.com. I started this site in 2008 focusing on printable letters to Santa, and there are now more than 50 printables at the site: not just letters, but also cards, Christmas games, and even a printable advent calendar.

The most popular letter on the site is one from Santa regarding the cute "m agic elf," inspired by the Elf on the Shelf tradition in which a toy elf makes mischief in the night. Also in the Top 15 most-downloaded letters are: gender-specific Santa letters, a letter to the family dog, a letter from Mrs. Claus, a letter from a Secret Santa, and a fill-in-the-blanks Christmas game. Joke Santa letters to grown-ups are also popular.

The letters are free in PDF format, and $5 for a version that "Santa's helper" (probably a parent, grandparent, or other family member) can customize in a DOC-compatible word processing program, typing in children's names and other personal details before printing. All of the letters are illustrated in full-color and digitally "signed" by Santa.
