Little known fact, in 2008 when I first heard of Etsy's existence I opened a shop and sold greeting cards. I know, super random right? It didn't last long, but I still have like 30 greeting cards that I made and haven't used. In fact, I have a whole drawer full of greeting cards that I rarely send. So wasteful right? Well, what can you do? The road to wherever is paved with good intentions (or something like that).
I love my little dresser turned nightstand (my semi-failed DIY of it
here and
here), especially because it has extra storage for the random things I own.
The bottom drawer holds my eclectic stash of greeting cards, a mix of ones I made myself and ones that were purchased.
Do you want to know the most interesting thing about greeting cards? They are completely useless unless sent. Yeah, I know, bummer. But the nice thing is that we live in a world where there are lots of options when you forget your sister's birthday or your cousin's graduation.
Take for example
The Greeting Card Shop (
check out their ad on the top right!), not only can you buy a card, electronically write a message in it, but they will send it directly to the recipient for only the cost of a stamp. Pretty slick right? Obviously, a homemade or hand written card is more personal, but any card is better than no card when your friend three states away has a baby.
Meanwhile, I'm just over here glad I have a little dresser to hold all of my good intentions.
