Make everything with love. You see that sentiment in this space quite a lot…we talk about it as our mission statement of sorts, we put in on a postcard that we give out, and a poster we are selling for your own home. Image by Sonja Younger, flickr. We say it so much because it [...]
I’ve just been thinking about the effect certain emails have on me, and it might be the same for you. I just opened up an email and saw this: Immediately I was flustered. WHAT?? What did I miss? Geesh, did I forget something? Oh. Yeah, it’s a credit for one of those e-commerce sites with [...]
