Right now my heart aches for this country and the world. It seems like all around us there is nothing but division and hate. Everyone seems to get offended by every little thing you say or do and to be different is no longer a good thing.
One of the blogs I like to read is www.so-many-places.com and Kim had a great idea for a yellow envelope act of kindness. This got my brain wheels to spinning. I wondered what I as a beader could do for random acts of kindness to other people. I go to thinking about my jewelry and what other complement me on most. You know what it is? My earrings. Most of the time the earrings people like most are the simplest to make.
So, here is my plan and here is what I purpose. I am planning on making a few simple pairs of earrings and a print out of the card above. Anytime I'm out about town and see someone who needs a pick me up I'm going to give them a pair of earrings as a gift. I might give some to waitress's, bank tellers, etc. Who knows...I might even leave some in bathrooms or the gym locker room.
Won't you do this with me? Lets make the world a happier place one set of earrings at a time. I would love to hear your stories of who you give them to or places where you leave them. You can comment on this blog post or post it in my private facebook group HERE
I can't wait to hear your stories!
I'm totally in. Gonna start handing out my Christmas earrings. I've got loads! What a great idea Kelly; thanks. We just finished handing out little cards from church, as we did random acts of kindness for people. It felt great!
