One of the biggest changes and hardest decisions we’ve made recently is the discontinuation of our note cards (you can read Valerie’s thoughts about this change on the blog). Since then, we have received so many kind messages and are so thankful for your support! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our warehouse moving sale is still happening, so be sure to grab your favorite note card designs now before they go out of stock! Plus, you can get many other items at a huge discount!! ❤️

This year is already full of changes. Although it can be scary and unsettling, each new change creates space for something new! Those new beginnings keep life interesting. Trust the magic ✨

I don’t know about you, but after the holiday decorations come down I always have an itch to add some new pieces to my home. This Elderflower Gin Fizz chalk recipe is perfect to add to your bar cart or buffet to change things up a bit! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Plus, it reminds me of Spring and warmer weather… which cannot come soon enough! ☀️

Dear friends, we are saying a sad, but hopeful goodbye to one of our first products…

Love letter subscribers received this note last week, but I wanted to share it here as well. (It was too long for an IG caption, so you can read the full letter on the blog.)

Change is scary. It is uncomfortable. I’m trying my best to lean into the discomfort and fears because I know on the other side of them, I can better serve you. Holding on to something purely out of fear and comfort is never a good reason.

So in the spirit of leaning into the simplicity, I talked about in my last love letter, here’s what’s coming...

As of February 2022, we will be discontinuing all of our note cards. If you’ve been here for a while, this may come as a huge surprise and you will know what a big decision this has been for us. Note cards were one of the very first products I started making back in 2012 and we’ve had them ever since.

The note cards played a role in so many of the philosophies I’ve carried for Lily & Val...

🤍 a return to simple things
🤍 slowing down
🤍 taking time to write a letter
🤍 sending encouragement
… just to name a few.

Those things all still hold true and will continue to hold true deeply to my core.

Over the years, I’ve learned the tough lesson that sometimes in order to say YES to the best things, you must say no to good things.

That's what I’m doing and I’ll be honest, it hurts.

But it’s not all sad...

Room to breathe means room to grow. And that’s where I’m headed, leaning into new passions and opportunities. I want to bring my best to you.

This month we’ve been running a warehouse moving sale! Moving our physical warehouse seemed like the right timing to make this big shift, to start fresh. But I wanted to deliver the news that all of the cards in the Lily & Val shop, that are now marked on sale, will not be coming back. Be sure to grab your favorites!

To everyone who ever purchased a Lily & Val card. Although I can’t fully express my gratitude in writing, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you for being here on this journey with me, friends! Lily & Val turns 10 in 2022. I can’t believe it! There’s good to come. 💕

Your weekend reminder. Be gentle with yourself. 💕Let’s let 2022 be the year you are more kind and loving toward yourself. That’s the kind of resolution we can get behind 🖤

Little happy bits and baubles on my desk. 🦋 💕 Some lingering from the year past and some for things to come. We hope your new year is off to a good start!

My word for 2022… ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sometimes, it takes bringing things back to factory settings to see real growth and change. It may feel like a step back. It may even feel like failure, and chances are, it will be quite messy. However, finding simplicity allows you to see past the chaos and get to the good stuff. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Find peace in saying “no” and letting go so that new growth can happen. If it doesn’t serve you any longer, it’s time to say goodbye. 💕⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

P.S. This design is now available as a FREE wallpaper download to all of our Love Letter subscribers. If you’re not on the list, you can sign up at the link in our bio. ☺️

Who’s breaking out your L&V and @langartwork planners and calendars today? There’s nothing like a fresh new planner filled with possibility. My hope for these products is to bring a gentleness and calm to your days in the midst of the chaos that is life. Less hustle and more heart in 2022.

Thank you, friends, for your support in 2021! Alth

Thank you, friends, for your support in 2021! Although a simple message to say thank you isn’t nearly enough to convey my appreciation for you, I hope you will accept it with my sincerest gratitude. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There is no Lily & Val without you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you for choosing to support my business and mission to spread encouragement, joy, and calm through artwork and thoughtful products. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

There are good things ahead in 2022! Happy New Year! 🎊
