Rand Acts of Kindness

2023 02 Random Acts Of Kindness Mangomini

Little Things You Can Do To Spread Positivity.

Yesterday was Rand Act of Kindness Day and this motivated me to think about little acts of kindness that I could do myself. Just small things that are easy to do, and often free, that can really brighten up somebody’s day. This also applies to little things you can do for yourself.

What do you think? Do you like my list? And, do you have suggestions for other acts of kindness to add? I would love to hear it and maybe I’ll add them to a second version of this one.

Have a lovely day!❤️

I hope you’re all enjoying a cozy winter with lots of things, people and experiences that make you feel happy! ❤️

Hello February! (In Drawings)

Cozy Winter Mood At Home, Illustrated.

Hello February! I always love the start of a new month to make plans and think of ways to make the most of that particular month.

For February it’s all about creating coziness at home. When it’s raining and dark outside I love to chill inside with candles, snacks, a glass of wine, a good book or a nice show to watch under a warm blanket. I also give my plants a little extra attention, because some of them are struggling from the lack of light and the cold. What do you like to do in February?

PS. This illustration is from my 2023 Wall Calendar. I still have a few copies available on Etsy, now with 25% discount.

Some of my sunny fall faves. Outside it feels like spring here, but with autumn colours, not bad at all.😉

So what have I been up to this fall, so far? Enjoying long hikes and autumn picnics of course. I’ve also started baking more and taken up knitting (so far it’s going well) and finally went to my first post lockdown concert, yay! Hope you are enjoying fall as well. Have a nice Monday and take care.❤️‍🍁😎⁠
