Saturday's At Shop This: Sweetest Day

It's National Sweetest Day.  At first blush it seems like just another Hallmark Holiday. But if you think about it, a day that is meant for doing small things in a great way, is not a bad thing. A little treat, a handmade card, a show of support, any of this will go a long way to making someone feel loved, appreciated, cherished, and cared for.  As my Mom often said, " Oh just be sweet," So with this in mind, I have some sweet links for you.


Shop Mally Beauty Today.

First of all, can we talk about the sweet illustrations above? They are one of my favorite finds on Etsy. The Shop is called "A Thing Created." Her fabulous and feminine illustrations can be found on stationery, cards, art prints, and wrapping paper. I think you will agree that this is one talented artist. Best yet, her things are adorable and affordable.

An opportunity to be sweet today. I love the wellness articles on GOOP. There's a particularly good one today entitled: One in Three Older Americans Is Lonely. Here's What Can Help. Give it a read, then act. We all will be an older American, if we are lucky, sooner or later

The act of cooking for someone...a loved one......an ill friend......a neighbor.... is a sweet act of love. Head to Shop This and reread the Foodie Friday Post: "Fall Baking." Try out a recipe today, and share it with someone.

The Sweetest Things: If you are looking to gift a child or baby and want simple but very fine things. Maisonette is the place to start. Their kids collections have often been featured in Vogue, the Wall Street Journal and more.  I know that you won't be disappointed.

Halloween Candy For Adults: Taking "Sweetest Day" literally....and with Halloween creeping near, you'll want to treat a grownup ghoul with some cocktail candy from Sugarfina. Think ~ Tito's American Mule Bears, Cuba Libre Squares, Dark Chocolate Bourbon Bears, and more. Trust me...these are a treat!

The Power of Positivity: Maybe you know someone going through a hard time...even yourself.....why not find one of these thoughtful and mindful quotes and send it to them today? I have collected over 500 cheerful looking quotes on one of my Pinterest Boards. I think that you will find them quite uplifting.
