lovely for good

It's easy to get caught up in a rush during the holidays. I'm usually so busy running around making gifts and decorations or doing some Christmas baking that I forget others are not so fortunate. There are 1000+ ways to contribute, but here are a couple of ways to help out online. 

Tis the Season

Kara has put together a collection of holiday prints from herself and various artists to benefit the Mercy House. The prints are absolutely gorgeous & even if you don't receive them by Christmas, they would make great art for next year! You can read more about Tis the Season here. 

iPhone Sessions

Justin Branam, a musician from Nashville, is using his iPhone Sessions project for good by putting out Hope, Vol. 1. This album contains music from Justin, in addition to many other Nashville artists, that was recorded using the iPhone. Proceeds from the project will benefit homeless projects.
