  • ✨New on the Blog ✨ LETTER-WRITING ADVICE + INSPIRATION. A handful of my favorite stationery makers on their letter-writing practice + tools. ••• Here’s a snippet of Lauren Sauder of Studio Ease (@thestudioease) sharing how letter writing impacts her: “Letter writing helps bring you closer to the recipient and form a relationship in an entirely new way. So often we are sucked into our phones and busy getting an instantaneous text to someone, but when we slow down to physically write someone a letter we connect with them in a much different way. It also helps me slow down in my daily life and spend time truly nourishing the relationships I cherish.” ••• Read the full collective interview on the blog. { Link in Profile } ••• Photo by @thestudioease
  • Do you ever send someone a card that holds a sentiment you yourself are in need of receiving? That is exactly how I am using my Pass It On kit from Of Note Stationers (@ofnotestationers). ••• If you missed my last post about these kits, Kate + Isabel (the ladies behind Of Note Stationers) have long been dreaming of creating something that could be both received + passed on. ••• Each Pass It On kit contains a beautiful Of Note Stationers card to be written in and a complementary postcard for the recipient to pass along. ••• In celebration of National Letter Writing Month, these ladies are spreading the love by offering the postcard portion of the kits for FREE until April 13th! To get yours, click the link in my profile. #PassLettersOn

  • As you may know, I find the intention + aesthetic behind Of Note Stationers (@ofnotestationers) to be both grounding + inspiring, and the Pass It On kit they launched today only furthers my love for what Kate + Isabel (the creators) aspire to do. These ladies deeply value meaningful correspondence and have long been dreaming of creating something that can be both received + passed on. ••• Each kit contains a beautiful Of Note Stationers card to be written in and a complementary postcard for the recipient to pass along. ••• And in celebration of National Letter Writing Month, these ladies are spreading the love by offering these kits for FREE until April 6th!

  • This post from @worthwhilepaper is so relevant to me as I grow this space + my creative endeavors. It also reminds me of the struggles + sentiments @agnesonduty shares in my interview with her on @lettresmag, her mindful magazine project. ••• To learn more about the project (and the upcoming launch party!), click the link in my profile.
  • Just pre-ordered my copy of “A Big Important Art Book” by Danielle Krysa of @thejealouscurator, my favorite art podcast + blog! ✨The book will be filled with the work of dozens of contemporary + historical female artists, accompanied by creative prompts for aspiring artists. ••• It will be published by @runningpressbooks this fall and is available in hardcover + digital formats. ••• To pre-order your own copy, head over to @thejealouscurator’s profile for the direct link.
  • ✨New on the Blog ✨ LETTRES MAGAZINE: A CURATED COLLECTION OF LOVE LETTERS. An interview with Agnes (@agnesonduty) of Lettres Magazine (@lettresmag) on her love of letter writing and the deeper connections it cultivates. ••• So what is Lettres Magazine? In the words of Agnes: “Lettres Mag is a collection of 26 expressions of love from around the world. They are written to and from the people who matter most in our lives: friends, lovers, exes, strangers, mothers, fathers, and our own selves. It was created based on the belief that writing down deeper feelings through love letters is both healing for the self and uplifting to others in a non-paper, digital-savvy world.” ••• Read the full interview on the blog. { Link in Profile } ••• Photo by @agnesonduty @lettresmag
  • Barbara Kruger has been a favorite artivist of mine since I first discovered her work in college. As this quote might suggest, her art serves as a medium to express her curiosities, insights, and criticisms + to engage her audience in expressing themselves in response. I love the way she overlays black-and-white imagery with simple, thought-provoking text, or sometimes uses nothing more than a line of her signature bold, eye-catching text. ••• Via the link in my profile, you’ll find an Art21 documentary short of her discussing the story + meaning behind her work.
  • Love these plant cards by @ourheiday! The clean lines almost make the paintings look collage-like to me. ••• With National Letter Writing Month around the corner, I hope you’ll support one or more of the ladies in my latest blog post: 10 Female Stationery Makers. { Link in Profile } ••• Photo by: @ourheiday
  • Mine probably has to be “Bird by Bird” by Anne Lamott. 📖 I haven’t read it since college, but I think it might be time for a reread. When I read it long ago, I remember feeling community in the way Anne brought the process of writing to life.
  • It made me smile to receive a handwritten letter from a pilot friend on the adorable stationery set I gifted them from @macandmurphy in Charleston, SC. ✈️💌🙂
  • National Letter Writing Month is right around the corner! 💌 Check out my latest blog post for a list of some of my favorite female stationery makers. { Link in Profile }
