After what felt like the longest week of my life, I walked up the path to my house to find a gold balloon tied to the cutest succulent I have ever seen, sitting at my front door. My face instantly lit up and my eyes began to well with tears. Attached was a note that read:  

Long days, weary eyes, restless nights,
girl you deserve a vacation!  I can’t quite fly us out to Tahiti for some R & R,
but I can give you a little gift that I hope will bring you a moment of peace
in the midst of the craziness surrounding you lately.
Sending love and peace your way,
~Shari

Wow, how perfect! This was exactly what I needed as a boost of encouragement because this week truly has been insane.

Flooded inboxes, deadlines at work, building your dreams, exercise and dieting, maintaining relationships, being the support person for your family all while managing to get more than five hours of sleep at night; life is tough.

We encounter moments in on our journey when the daily hustle and bustle can become downright OVERWHELMING.

For these moments, Just Because Gifts can be the perfect remedy to change the course of someone's hour, day or even week. There is such a value when a friend or loved one can recognize the challenges we are enduring and take action to help lift our spirits.   
 

If you know someone who could benefit from a Just Because Gift, feel free to check out our custom gallery for ideas. Or let us know if there is anyway we can be of assistance, after all gifts are kinda our thing ;)

Until next time,

and with tons of glitter and gold foil,
