People who hand addressed envelopes (DIY, not calligrapher)

[lliang_chi]

I seem to be coming up with a problem whenever I write my own last name. I keep signing it as my signature (or wanting to).

1) Did anyone else have this problem?
2) How do ou break the habit???

I''m running out of envelopes!!!!

Im sorry if this seems like a smartass, obvious answer, but stop practicing on your envelopes!

I did have that problem a few times, but quickly figured out that I was wasting precious envelopes so I switched back to notebook paper. If all else fails, enlist the help of one of your BM''s or someone you know well who has nice penmanship? Good luck!

I understand your problem, a friend of mine did this. She practiced for days, focused and still kept messing up. My Vera Wang Invites came with a bunch extra, and if worse comes to worse, you can see if you can purchase more. At this point, I would have someone else you know write them if you continue to struggle.

I have been practicing on paper. I just switched to not addressing my dad''s family till the very end. I just thought I''d share something that might make people chuckle a little during the wedding planning process.
