And then tomorrow there it will be, for happiness can set you free. -----------Author Unknown It’s easy to become overwhelmed in the aggravation and negativity of the day-to-day, even though most of us have plenty to be thankful for. I was inspired recently by something I read online that was made popular by novelist, Elizabeth Gilbert. It was a suggestion to write down one thing that makes you happy each day. You know, the simple pleasures like a hug from your kids or a warm chocolate chip cookie. Whatever made you smile. Save those notes for an entire year. At the end of a year, revisit all those little delights. You’ll likely find your life is more blessed than you thought! I thought it was a terrific idea, and so I set out to create my own Happiness Jar, with a beachy theme, of course! --Each jar is a 1 quart / 32 ounce mason jar with screw top lid. --The jar is approximately 7 inches tall and 3 ½ inches in diameter. --The jar is painted by hand with acrylic paint that was heat set then decorated with jute cord and cute little seashells that I found on Hollywood Beach, Florida.-- Each jar is individually prepared, so there will be slight variations from jar to jar. Grab one of these today and start collecting your simple joys!
