Welcome to Blissful Paper! I’m Molly and I’m so happy that you’re here.
Blissful Paper was an idea conceived in January 2019 while on a roadtrip from California to Georgia. The gist of it is I’ve been a small business owner since May 2017 when I was laid off from my job as an event coordinator. I started a niche marketing agency and I’ve been kept busy the past few years and have had many excited accomplishments. BUT I was never doing anything that fired me up, that made me feel like I was making an impact. Enter hundreds of business podcasts, books, youtube videos, courses, all hoping to spark an idea in me and wanting to continue my entrepreneur journey.
I then had the epiphany, my friends are hugely important to me and authenticity is disappearing with the use of social media. People are getting lazy about putting effort into friendship and in turn complaining and feeling unfulfilled. What if I could make it easy? A simple touchpoint between friends that has a lasting impact. Alas, pre-stamped postcards is my solution!
A large part that I hope will come out of Blissful Paper is also HOW to be a good friend. It’s easy to be a friend during the uncomplicated times, during wedding season, happy hours and play dates. What’s difficult and we don’t always know how to respond is when friends face hardship. Illness, miscarriage, breakups, loss – just to name a few. There never is a perfect thing to say, but I hope to bridge that gap of feeling helpless when these situations are bound to arise.
Along with postcards as the signature product, I thought about combining some of my other interests that all revolve around friends, hosting, hanging out and gifting! I hope you’re just as excited as I am to strengthen my friendships and create more meaningful and impactful relationships with those I care most about. Check out the store for our signature friendship postcards as well as other gifts for friends. The blog is chock full of ideas, lists and advice. Thanks for being here!
