Family caregivers have the important job of caring for loved ones who have chronic illness, disabilities, disease, or old age. They are unsung heroes! This month is a great time to say thank you for their hard work. There are a ton of great options at the shop, Senior Shower Project.
NOVEMBER 11 // VETERAN’S DAY
I am the granddaughter, daughter, sister and wife of veterans, so this holiday holds a special place in my heart. Another great reason to say thank you, this time to the vets in your life for their selfless service.
A few cards created by small businesses:
- Thank You For Your Service Wood Card by Night Owl Paper Goods
- Embossed Star Card Set by DandA Cards
- Thank You Star Card by Jordyn Alison Designs
NOVEMBER 13 // WORLD KINDNESS DAY
World Kindness Day originally came about because of a Japanese conference in the ’90s. The organization, known as the World Kindness Movement, brought together groups interested in promoting more kindness around the world. In remembrance of this day, share a little kindness in your own community! Maybe a baked good and note to the nurses at your local hospital, police station or nursing home?
NOVEMBER 28 // THANKSGIVING
A day of football, family, and lots of good food! A few cards created by small businesses:
- Gobble Gobble Card by Mudsplash Studios
- Happy Thanksgiving Cards (Set of 8) by Phoebe and June
- Animal Thanksgiving Card by Fox & Bear Paper Co.
NOVEMBER 29 // ELECTRIC GREETING CARD DAY
This probably comes as no surprise, but this day was created by the electronic greeting card websites. Now there’s no excuse not to send someone a note, hah! Check out Hallmark and American Greetings for lots of options and for every occasion.
I love this so much. I grew up writing letters to penpals, and I miss sitting down to write a letter to a friend! I need to make it happen more.
Yes! It's such a dying art, but one that I think is still so important. I'm already brainstorming ways I can do more – I have big plans for 2020!
