cupid calling
I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before but Valentine’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. Not because I like roses, fancy restaurants or chocolate (well, I do like chocolate) but because I like to surprise some of my girlfriends by sending them little treats in the mail. I like to look at February 14th as an opportunity to bring a bit of color and joy into those grey cold days of February… because who doesn’t get a smile on their face when a pretty package arrives on their door step?
This year I’ve decided to expand my cupid arrow radius by including friends, family or special people YOU know who could really use a cupid call to cheer them up. It could be they had a hard holiday season, are dealing with health problems, recently lost someone special or maybe it’s a struggle to keep a smile on their face… just let us know in a short paragraph why you’d like to nominate them to get a box of love delivered to their door step.
So here’s how it works…
1. Email your submission to service@catchingfireflies.com with subject title: CUPID CALL (please do not leave info in the comments section on this post)
2. Include your nominee’s full name, age and mailing address. One submission per email please. (there is no age limit for nominees)
3. In a short paragraph, let us know why they need a cupid call. Also let us know a little about the person & what they like (bath & body goods, kitchen gadgets, fashion accessories, inspirational items, funny things, etc…)
4. Include your full name and your relationship to the nominee.
Deadline for entry is February 5
We’re going to do our best to send out as many cupid calls as possible the week of February 9. You will not know if your nominee was chosen, but if they were, the package of love will be delivered anonymously with a short note reading, “A bit of love wrapped up just for you to make your day brighter. xoxo ~ cupid”
If you do have additional questions, please ask them in the comments box and we will reply so everyone can see them.

What an awesome idea and how generous of Catching Fireflies. It’s so refreshing that there are still people in this world care about others like you do. God Bless you! AND Happy Valentine’s Day.
Thank you for doing this! It is exciting and fun and made me down-right giddy thinking about my “nominee” possibly getting a wonderful surprise. Do you happen to let the “nominator” know via email if their person was selected?
YaY! Happy to spread a little love around town. The nominator won’t be notified so it will be a true surprise for all!
My mom showed me this link after she nominated my grandma. I really hope she gets a visit from Cupid. She is the strongest most inspiring person I know. I love my grandma to death and I know how much pain she is going through right now. Praying for a visit and and a miracle. This is a really great idea and surprise!
