May is a real family month – Mother's Day is just around the corner and Father's Day is getting closer and closer. Reason enough for us to celebrate family life with our #postcardsofthemonth.
The last two months have been tough - not just for each and every one of us as private individuals, but also especially for the economy and especially for the retail sector. The necessity of almost all shops closing due to the current situation naturally led to enormous losses in sales and in some cases even threatened economic existence. In order not to disappear completely from the scene, creative ideas and extraordinary service measures were needed so that all the wonderful products could continue to find their way to customers despite the closure. So we asked a few of our #geilerladen members how they are best coping with the situation.
How about a little handwritten, encouraging surprise? A nice postcard would be nice. Our #postcardsofthemonth are the ideal messenger to send your loved ones some good vibes in these times
It is hard to imagine life without it and can be found everywhere. Even if it is perhaps sent less than before in the age of digital communication, it remains a particularly long-lasting favorite for beautiful memories and personal messages. What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of postcards? Holiday greetings from family, funny sayings from the bookstore or a souvenir from your last city trip? But where did the idea of the postcard actually come from and did it always look like it does today?
Spring is finally here, the sun is shining and the temperatures are rising. Everyone wants to go outside, but somehow that's not really possible right now. So, what can you do? We've put together a few tips for you on how to pass the time at home in a creative way.
Spring is finally making its way through the grey of last winter. The first flowers will soon shoot out of the ground, the trees will start to bloom, the sun will appear more often and the temperatures will rise. To help the season and its arrival along a little, we want to inspire you with a few very special photographic mood makers for the upcoming colorful flowers and blossoms. To get you in the mood for spring as much as we are, we have put together a few spring pictures for you here.

You can certainly name many reasons why you are grateful to the people around you: Because they are always there for you. Because they love you just the way you are. Because they are great in their own way. Often there are many small and perhaps obvious things that you appreciate in others but never tell them. We want to change that with our #postcardsofthemonth and call on you to say thank you again!
