One of my favorite things is sending snail mail, especially when it's something fun + unexpected. I normally sign letters with 2 hearts, or by saying 'heart heart.' It's one of my unique ways of sending love without overusing the word, and still keeping it personal. (It's all in the details, darling..)
This year, I teamed up with new friends that are serious dreamers + do-ers - the lovelies of Confetti & Co. - and got to make some gorgeous snail mail happen.
We decided to send valentines with a great note inside that could pull double-duty as a daily reminder to the recipient.
A little something positive that can bring some beauty to every day? Yes, please!
I cut cream-colored heart shapes to be paired with heart-shaped confetti in pink, grey + silver tones.
I used a light grey ink to write 'enjoy today' on one side of each heart. Two variations were made. I love the simplicity and the power of a little reminder to simply 'enjoy today.'
The back of each heart was signed with a "XO" from myself and Confetti & Co. Again, two variations were made, with placement of our names being the only change.

Blush envelopes were addressed in the same light grey ink.
Sara and the Confetti & Company crew hand cut some crepe paper hearts and packed up the envelopes with valentines + heart-shaped confetti. They finished packaging the envelopes with some gold tape and vintage seed packet stamps.
I had such a great time working on these, and can't think of a more perfect way to send love in the mail for Valentine's Day!
