Living a More Thankful Life is about much more than saying thanks. In this 30-day creativity series, the staff at Creativebug shares favorite ways of expressing gratitude, helping our community, loving our neighbors, and honoring past, present and future family traditions – all through crafting!

So many great ideas for being grateful or showing gratefulness. I always try to make at least one person happy/smiling on a day just by smiling and greeting/ Such a tiny thing but with great impact.

I'm so touched by this class. I especially love the classes on leaving uplifting post-it notes in public (a small message like that could have a huge impact) and giving thanks for spaces.
