{Thanks!}


I love receiving "Thank You" cards whether they are to say thanks for something I made or did for someone. They just make both parties feel good. I think nowadays though, writing Thank You cards has become a lost tradition. Its too easy to just say thanks or email a "thank you". I know this is one tradition I struggle with and want to be better at. I also want our children to continue this tradition instead of "texting" it.

I was inspired, by a movie, where she kept love notes in a container. What a great way to keep them organized but also be able to flip thru them whenever the need arises. I know I have many "off" days where I need a little pick-me-up.


This is where I have some of them(among other places).


I found this at the dollar store.



I just [beautified] it with fabric, ribbon & stickers.


This is where I keep all my Thank You cards. Ready to go.

I think I'm going to try and keep some in my car, purse & church bag. You never know when the need will arise to give someone an little extra "Thank You" to brighten their day.

  2. I love you ideas Heather! What a great idea to always have a thank you note ready and with you....how many times I have written a note in my head to someone at church, only to get home and forget! Thank you for inspiring me to greater measures.
