HOW THIS CAME ABOUT...

A little explainy bit ...: About

first of all, welcome! it's so nice to have you here! have you got your

cup of tea/ preferred drink? if not... go ahead and grab that now :)

so where to begin? I suppose a name would help so, hello! i'm Emily-May and this is the Happy Little Note Company.

 

We all have bad days, some more than others but the most important thing is that we support each other, whatever the weather.  Sometimes in those bad moments hearing someone say "hey, you know what? I really love your outfit today" or "I'll pop the kettle on and you can tell me all about it" can really help.  I'll tell you one thing, the people that simply take a few seconds to be kind in any way shape or form, I thank you so SO much for making my life that bit easier. Something I've learnt is that being kind can go such a long way and truly help a person. 

 

Enough rambling, so how did this small business come about? Well... by exactly everything I said above. In 2019 I was struggling a lot. I started to write happy notes and hide them while i was travelling. I cannot tell you how overjoyed I was when people found them and told me how happy it made them. Then, 2020 happened. Due to the pandemic, I couldn't hide notes anymore. At the start of lockdown i took to writing on the pavement in chalk instead... but a little thing called the British weather soon halted that idea so, I thought up the humble kindness pouch. I began selling small handmade pouches containing some kind notes for anyone that needed them. After a few months, I opened up this shop that you know today.

 

I kept the name "Happy Little Note Company" Because those happy notes are the base of everything I believe in. Simple acts of kindness can make the biggest difference and I've stuck to this through every phase of this business. I see my "happy notes" as being anything that makes you well... happy. Whether that's one of my scrunchies to brighten your day, resin hearts for a friend or one of my pouches to keep your own happy little things in, we can all find our happy notes... and we can always find time to help others to find them too.  Just know that It's ok not to feel normal, It's alright to struggle, It's alright to find it hard to ask for help. It's fine to have a bad day, a bad week or a bad month. It's all ok. Whatever you're feeling, those emotions are 100% valid. Remember to look after yourself,  i'll be behind you all the way. Stay strong...you are incredible. I promise. 

and if you read this far... wow! that's hardcore! 

thank you

Emily-May :) xx
