FAQ

How can I wish someone a Merry Christmas?

Sending a card to someone to wish them a Merry Christmas is a wonderful way to share a piece of holiday cheer, especially if you live far apart or won’t be spending the holiday together. Whether you’re writing to a family member, a good friend, or even a coworker, there are many different ways to wish them a merry Christmas. First, think of your relationship with them, what’s important to them, what important milestones they’ve had in the past year, and how they like to spend the holidays. Use these to guide you on what to write in your Christmas card. For example, if they’ve recently had a baby, you can tell them you hope they have a wonderful first holiday with their little one. If you’re close with the person you’re writing to, you can mention a funny shared story or experience you’ve had with them from Christmases past as a personal way to elicit a nostalgic smile in the spirit of the holiday. If you don’t know the person very well, simply wish them a Merry Christmas and happy new year. For some inspiration and ideas to help you get started, take a look at our Christmas wishes section here at Styiens. Browse our selection of Christmas messages and find the perfect Christmas wish for your loved one.

What do I write in a Christmas card?

Sending a Christmas card with a personalized Christmas greeting inside is a great way to share a bit of holiday cheer this Christmas. Taking the time to write a Christmas card shows that you put some thought and effort into your merry Christmas wish – in short, it shows how much you care! When writing a Christmas card, it’s important to remember to keep your wish about the recipient and to only focus on positive things. For example, if you’re writing to friends or family, your Christmas card is the perfect opportunity to let them know how much you love and appreciate them. If you’re writing to a coworker or a business associate, the message you send should be a little more formal and professional, but should still convey a similar sentiment. No matter who you’re writing your Christmas card for, the most important thing is that your message centers on wishing them a merry Christmas, preferably with a personal touch. This can be anything from a funny story about the time you spent with them over the holidays to a holiday memory you share, or even just a mention of specific things you wish for them this Christmas. You can recount a special holiday memory, or wish them a nice time spending the holiday with their family. If you’re still not sure what to say, check out some of our Christmas messages in our Christmas section here at Styiens to get you started!
