"The little things" is street art about gratitude. People will submit a photo of something they’re grateful for via a website or hashtag, and we will print and post selected ones around Sydney. As we share these grateful moments around the city, people will be inspired to think about the little things, the little moments in their lives that we all pass over too quickly. These moments could be the way the sun strikes a wall in the afternoon, ugg boots on a cold morning, a cup of tea with a dear friend etc.


In 2008 I did a project on Gratitude called '365 Grateful' that changed my life. You can see a link to that story below in my bio. This simple practice of noticing the little things in my life really made me happy!

So when I heard about the Happy Project I was so excited to pitch an idea to help more people notice the little things.

http://happyproject.com.au/

I am a co-finalist in the Happy Project competition with another amazing happiness-spreading woman named Sarah. To win the funding, I need as many shares on this project as possible and I need to meet my $3000 goal with this Pozible campaign too.

With Happy Project funding (if we win $12,000) and reaching another $3000 that we are aiming for here, (Making a total of $15,000) we can do thousands of 'The Little Things' posters around Sydney!

With further funding we can take this project to Brisbane and Melbourne!



Thank YOU!

Thanks so much for taking the time to read and watch our video and info.
We hope you enjoy our project and are excited to share, fund and maybe if we win the Happy Project you might want to send in your own 'little things' images!!
Any and all of these are important so thanks very much!
warmest Hailey

How The Funds Will Be Used

Funding will go towards a website, sorting & creating a common layout for all images, applications for council approval, printing all the posters and supplies to post these up around town.

With what the team from Happy Project give us (if we win) we can definitely do Sydney but to be able to repeat this in Melbourne and Brisbane we need more support and funding. If the money pledged goes past our goal then the additional funds raised will go towards doing further street art in Brisbane and Melbourne.

The Challenges

This project will only get off the ground through the support and shares from YOU and your friends. The Happy Project will give $12,000 to only ONE of these projects.

Thanks so much! It all helps! We will send you a fun personal email with a little grateful message! We will also include a download to our 'How to do a grateful project' ebook.
