The last message

A soldier in Iraq proposes to his girlfriend in a sweet and sentimental way. He customized his two jars of KindNotes and asked us kindly if we can put something special together.

After sending her a special message each day for 61 days while he was away, the last message she opened said, ”Will You Marry Me?”.

It was a pleasure working with this soldier who had a romantic heart. Good luck to them both!

Inspirational Story No. 1: Words of Wisdom

I was so excited when I found KindNotes online!  My Dad was turning 60 and I wanted to get him something special for his birthday.  He journals everyday and has often said “You will learn all kinds of things when I am gone”.  As we talked about the things he had learned during 60 years of his life I thought I would love for my children to have “Words of Wisdom” from their Grandfather.  So, I bought him a jar with blank notes and gave him a note that said “write down you thoughts and wisdom to us, the kids as a whole, or individuals to open at a certain point in time (i.e. Graduation)”.  I pray that he is here to celebrate all of those milestones with us and share one-on-one but this was a great way tap in to something he loves anyway, writing.  He has enjoyed this gift and I can’t wait to read the notes! -Heather Todd

Idea #4: Jar of Memories

Posted in Gift Ideas, Love, gifts, ideas, memory jar tagged , , , , , , , , , , , at 6:22 pm by kindnotes

You don’t have to say much to touch the heart of someone you cherish. Dedicate your jar of KindNotes to special memories and simply write a few words that would remind them of the moments you’ve shared. Remind them of the first time you did something together, or an embarassing moment that you both can look back and laugh about. You can start with a question, ”Remember when….”. Your special memories will always be remembered and treasured.

Idea #3: For Those in the Hospital

Posted in ideas tagged , , , , , , , at 7:12 pm by kindnotes

Being in the hospital is tough as it is. Help someone get through their stay with your words of inspiration. It’s always nice to hand out blank note cards to the patient’s family members or friends and have them write their own note(s).

Please let us know if you need any help or if you have any special requests - we’d love to work with you. Below are a few of your thoughts we’d like to share with everyone.

-WHAT A GREAT PRODUCT! IT WAS EVERYTHING I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AND A WHOLE LOT MORE. SHAREE LOVED IT. SHE SAID IT WAS THE BEST GIFT SHE HAD EVER GOTTEN. I KNOW IF I HAVEN’T TOLD TEN PEOPLE IT’S BEEN TWENTY. THANKS AGAIN FOR A TRUELY WONDERFUL UNIQUE GIFT. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE TO BOOT! WHAT A WONDERFUL COMPANY. YOU WILL DEFINETLY HERE FROM ME AGAIN AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN.

-The product was beautiful once complete. Service impeccible! A great creation - especially for loved ones. I gave 6 kind notes jars for holiday gifts and everyone thought it was such a unique gift. They can’t wait until January 1, 2008 to start opening! Especially since I wrote all my own cards full of memories!

-The recipient of my gift was extremely moved by the thoughtfulness and care that went into such a gift. He said it was “the most precious gift he has ever received.” There were even tears, but don’t tell him I told you!

-As I am currently working overseas, I’m not often able to organise special gifts so I wanted something really special to make my wife feel loved and wanted everyday. Love notes is exactly what I was searching for! She loves it! I was able to tailor the notes so they were all relevant. It’s the next best thing to me actually being there because everytime she reads a note it reminds her that I’m thinking of her at that very moment.

-I had never heard of kind notes before I was searching the internet one day for something personal and creative. I am so glad I stumbled across it. It came very quickly to my surprise-especially since it was Christmas time. I was so pleasantly surprised. I loved it. The person I gave it to loved it too. Everyday I call the recipient and ask what was in the envelope. Once 31 days are over, the jar will be filled again and my friend will start over. Thank you so much for your creativity!

-Great gift idea, you made life really simple for every husband and for every person for that matter. Great product for greater love…

-I think that your website is excellent. Because of Kind Notes, I was able to give a more creative gift to my partner for Christmas. He enjoyed reading the first note, and he is going to take the remaining notes with him to Iraq. I am very happy with the service and products from Kind Notes!

-This was the best present I have ever given! It is so thoughtful and unique, and I will definitely return to do it again. My fiance loved the little messages every morning!

-I was Very satisfied with this product. It was a gift for my mother in law and she absolutely loved it! She actually asked me where I got it so she could order some of her own for gifts to others and just to have more when that one was done. I love how personal you are able to make it by customizing different aspects of the product. Long story short, she’ll be ordering more.

-I have ordered kindnotes twice, once for my mom and once for my mother in law. Kindnotes are the perfect way to let someone special know exactly how you feel, and to say thank you for a lifetime of love.

-I ordered jars for seven of my girlfriends for Christmas this year. Each was well received, packaged/shipped nicely, etc. I was pleased with the quality of the product as well as your customer service. There was a problem with the way I placed the order and Linda called to work through the issue.

-All I have to say is that the receipt of the gift I sent from Kind Notes was extremely excited. She called me to tell me that the gift could have not have coma at a better time. And that she was going to play this gift forward. So… that means that I will be using this gift again and agian in the future. What a wonderful idea. I give this a 100% satifaction. Thanks again for a Great idea.

-I thought this was such a GREAT find and my Dad loved the gift! We are using it for him to fill the jar with words of wisdom.

-I had ordered this for my fiance who lives 1076 miles away from me! He is really enjoying opening one of them every day. I had fun selecting each little detail of this package. Thank you for creating a product that at least makes our long distance apart from one another a little bit more bearable!

-For one, I like the products in your site. I gave as a Christmas gift the jar of notes to my mate and he loved it. It was simple but yet different.

-I was looking for something “unique” for my husband for our anniversary. I thought this was great and right on target. I was very surprised at how nicely packaged the notes were. And, the greatest praise of all is that my husband loved it and would consider using it for gifts in the future!

-Sweet gift idea. The little envelopes and jar are to me the most attractive part of the whole gift. The pre-suggested sentiments made the selection very easy on-line. Delivery was quick considering the demand of the holiday season.

-My boyfriend and I decided to make eachother something for christmas this year instead of just buying a gift. We wanted more meaning and when I came across this, I knew it would be perfect! It is by far the best idea for those who want more meaning in their gifts!
