Last year we shared an eye-opening and informative infographic on Instagram from @spiritofrevelry regarding the history of Juneteenth and different ways to support Black people and initiatives. Since then, we have actively worked to better understand how we can be allies to the Black community. We wanted to share some of what we’ve learned about events like Juneteenth and the Tulsa Massacre as well as the wealth gap that still exists for Black people in the United States. For aspiring and new Black entrepreneurs, we share resources to help start or grow a business.

Since sustainability is so important to us, we explored ways that we can recycle clothes that we’re no longer wearing. We were shocked to learn that about 80% of the clothes we purchase eventually end up in the landfill. Whether you’re doing a big closet cleanout or just have a few pieces that are looking too worn out to wear in public there are many ways to give these old items new life.

This year we’ve seen a rise in hate crimes and violence against members of the AAPI community. Printfresh founder Amy Voloshin and her team believe in using this platform to spread awareness of the issues and offer ways to provide support.

We’d recently been reading more and more about the benefits of daily sketching when an artist named Kate Lewis began tagging us in posts about her morning drawings using our Hand-Dipped Marble Sketchbook. To learn more about daily sketching and its positive effects, we spoke with Kate about the changes she has seen since implementing her practice.
