Girl Boss | Brittany Henson of Grain & Dot

Girl Boss | Brittany Henson of Grain & Dot

Totally inspired by Sophia Amoruso’s book of the same name, Girl Boss is a series focused on fierce, determined women who go with their gut and create their dream businesses in the process.

Girl Boss | Brittany Henson of Grain & Dot

I am a total sucker for funny phrases in pretty type, so it should come as no surprise that I’m a huge fan of Grain & Dot‘s fabulous paper goods. With fun, witty little sayings, quotes from my favorite TV shows, and uplifting hand-lettered messages, Brittany Henson’s work is everything I love: quirky, refreshing, positive, and fun.

Check out how she started her own handmade business, how she balances dogs and chickens and working from home, and where she finds inspiration—as well as a special treat for my readers!

DIY Junk Mail Stationery

So you all know at this point what a big repurposing nerd I am, right? Eco-friendly + cheap = perfection in my book. Well, I came across this video on Poppytalk this afternoon and I absolutely had to share.

As part of the Unconsumption Artist Series (where artists were selected to repurpose things using the Unconsumption logo), Yellow Owl Workshop created this super simple video tutorial that shows you how to make stationery out of all of that annoying junk mail that fills your mailbox everyday.

I don’t know about you, but I’m amazed at the amount of junk mail I get even though I request to get things digitally whenever I can. This is a great way to reuse it, save money, and have super cool personal stationery. Love it!!!

Check out Uncunsumption for some other amazing repurposing tutorials (I might have to make some glass bottle vases with all of those mason jars I have lying around…).

about the momma

Hi! I'm Jen, a freelance writer and girl mom who loves reading the newest children’s books as much as I love a good psychological thriller. I believe fiercely in the power of kindness, empathy, and really good quality chocolate. When I'm not knee-deep in glittery crafts and girl talk, you can probably find me sprawled out on my couch in the middle of a Netflix marathon with dark chocolate smeared on my face. The struggle is real. Learn more about me here.
