RAK ... Random Act of Kindness

Several members of the Crafts Beautiful forum have got together and exchanged names and addresses for a variety of different reasons. There are ATC swaps, a Birthday Club, A scrapbook Journal Circle and others too ... I'm sure you get the picture.

Anyway, one of the lists is compiled of members who wanted to join a RAK list and for those who don't know, I shall explain how it works.

The objective is purely and simply to bring a smile to someone else's face, by sending them something through the post. There doesn't have to be a reason (other than you simply want to), there are no deadlines to stick to and no pressure because you just send whatever you like ... to whomever you like ... whenever you feel like doing so ... by it's very definition it is a Random Act of Kindness.

There has been a bit of RAK fever over the last few weeks ... especially as it is a newish thing ... so we are all sending goodies to each other like mad LOL. There have been some lovely gifts being sent and this week I have received more than my fair share in the post. It's a fabby idea and it really does get your day off to a good start. Try it ... you'll enjoy the feeling I promise.

So here are the RAK's I have received this week ... thanks Maggie50, Zheena, Silvercustard and Emily13 ... you have brightened my week already and it's only halfway.

I can't believe how well the RAK list is going! IT's a little bit crazy at the moment, isn't it? Makes checking the post a bit more interesting every day though! I'm sure it'll calm down once the novelty has worn off a little, hehe
