Random Act of Kindness

20150922_094844

I did it. I finally ordered some mini business cards that I can stick to some of the random acts of kindness that I do. I think that kindness makes the world go around – and that when one can’t find any kindness in the world you have to be the kindness for someone else. The cards are pretty – red and black – and have a very simple message. Kindness is Contagious. On the reverse, it says “this has been a random act of kindness” and encourages someone else to Pay it forward. There’s also a link to a website which has lots of great ideas for your own RAOK.

Now that I have the cards, I’ve attached them to 4 Kit Kats and put them on the desks of my colleagues. Hopefully, it’s the first of a few to go around the office. 🙂

Doing my part to pass on some random acts of kindness today. 4 Kitkats x 4 co-workers... #weareebay #20forgood #ebay20 #randomactsofkindness #raok #payitforward #kindness #kindnessiscontageous #kindnessmatters #passiton #kitkat

Blue Corner 2 Corner Baby Blanket

The start of a blanket for a baby boy...

Earlier in the year (May 2015), I had an order for a baby blanket for a little boy – that he could grow into. They didn’t want “traditional” colors, but they wanted something masculine and large enough to eventually cover a toddler bed. They also wanted something more solid and not too lacy. I thought on it for a couple of days, and ended up using a dark and light blue, a tan, and a few mixed skeins of mottled browns in a corner to corner pattern. The end result was 2/3 the length of a single bed and I think turned out quite masculine – but not overly baby. What do you think?
