Civilian Face Masks

Let’s be real kids, there are so many more important things to discuss than cute face masks right now. We’re living in two pandemics, race and health, and we have a lot of work to do. But you know one place we can all start in regards to the latter?

It’s, like, so easy. And something tells me I don’t need to preach that to anyone reading this blog (though if you feel differently I would LUV to get in a constructive conversation about such).

Earlier this year I made what I thought was a joke about how fashion and lifestyle brands are going to start selling masks. No part of me expected that to be true at the time, but with no end of this in sight, I am so down to ditch the itchy papery ones in favor of one of these {non-medical grade civilian} printed face masks.

Merry merry twenty-seven-teen!

I don’t think that number has really sunk in yet. TWO THOUSAND AND SEVENTEEN. Time freakin’ flies.

It’s been humbling to reflect on the last year and think about all of the good memories that did come with 2016 {there were a few!}. But with such reflections come the reminders of everything I’ve “been meaning to get to” and still haven’t. I’ve had a bag of clothes to donate in my car for three months. I’ve been meaning to get rid of an old desk in my room for over a year. I haven’t talked to some of my best friends on the phone in at least six months {Snapchat doesn’t cut it}. I’ve been meaning to spend a day at Cradles to Crayons.

We’ll go to that museum next month…we’ll ask them out to dinner after the holidays…we’ll hang those photos when we have a free afternoon…

It’s January 5th, so, resolutions are still fresh on a lot of our minds. This year I’m forgoing such loosy goosey self-improvements I’ve tried to make in the past…drink more water, eat out less, be better about keeping in touch…in favor of some more tangible to-do’s.

Some are silly, some have a deeper meaning. I’ll keep you updated on how I do & why I’ve done them.

  1. Participate in at least 12 days of volunteer work. 
  2. Read five books on politics and/or politicians. 
  3. Send 25 pieces of snail mail {Christmas cards don’t count!}. 
  4. Purchase custom stationery*
  5. Read and test Marie Kondo’s method. 
  6. Plan and creative direct a photoshoot. 
  7. Host a dinner party. 
  8. Invest in a new computer & editing software.
  9. Get involved with the Emerson community as an alum. 
  10. Successfully bake a pie, dough to glaze, on my own. 
  11. Tip 100% on a deserving experience. 
  12. Participate in a March Madness bracket. 
  13. Go two weeks without using an Uber. 
  14. Go to church without needing an occasion {Christmas, Easter, wedding, funeral, christening}.
  15. Make a flower arrangement for a friend {no cheating with Alice’s Table!}
  16. Partner with a brand that I feel truly passionate about. 
  17. Make our house a home.

Making your own 17 in 17 list? Let me know!

*My sweet best friend designed our custom Christmas card pictured above, and she doesn’t know it yet, but she’s the first one I’ll be going to when I need to place that stationery order. Check out her new shop, Little Korner Store, for custom invitations, stamps, ornaments, notepads, and other beautiful hand-lettered goodness.
