The world is weird and I am struggling more than normal – so I decided to channel those struggles and my scrap paper into little tokens and trinkets to leave around town knowing they’ll land in the hands of people who need to read the words.
Any kind of crafting helps me relieve mental stress – busy hands calm my mind and it just makes me feel even better to know I’m creating little mementos, reminders, and motivations that other people will find thoughout their day to lift their spirits, too.

Alternatively, you could make small squares, business card sized items, little circles or hearts with messages. I chose tags because I love creating tags but these can come to life in whatever form or fashion you prefer.
