We hosted an Instagram Flash Mob to Spread Thoughtfulness
Today we created a little Instagram Flash Mob magic to spread thoughtfulness with the handwritten word. We joined forces with 12 other creative businesses to each write a Think of you Often card and share on Instagram how we intended to use it. It was our hope to, in a small way, collectively inspire you to reach out and connect.
Included below is a round up of some of the goodness that went out into the world.

"I have now attained the true art of letter-writing, which we are always told, is to express on paper exactly what one would say to the same person by word of mouth." -JaneAusten || we talk all the time--on the phone, through emails, and texts--but since we live so far apart it's rarely, if ever, in person. Instead, we turn to the post, the next best thing to being there. No names for now, this letter is still a surprise. The best kind of correspondence is, after all, unexpected. - @kchysmith
I'm taking it slow this long weekend & writing a few "just because" letters. Let's all spread thoughtfulness with the handwritten word. - @send_more_mail
To our one and only, Mother Earth we say thank you. Without your giving of resource and beauty MYRTH would be none. You inspire us infinitely with your stunning geology, vivacious plants, brilliant landscapes, and your generosity is boundless.
We will always respect what you've given us, and in return we promise to create and give as you do, with integrity to last lifetimes and material bountiful.
Your legacy remains paramount as we think of you this week. - @myrthceramics
We love how @devotediarist also put our Love Inside stamp to use!
