Post-it Notes Go Viral!
July 18, 2009
In need of a quick pick me up today? Join the post-it note craze!
First, you had the post-it note explosion, the senior post-it stop motion project created by a student at Savannah College of Art and Design.
Then, you had my collection of post- it notes, a brilliant cross of inspiration and art pick me up.
Now, there’s Operation Beautiful. Launched by Caitlin Boyle, 25, a mere three weeks ago, Operation Beautiful was started as a crusade to “end all fat talk.” As Caitlin writes “the mission of Operation Beautiful is to post anonymous notes in public places for other women to find. The point is THAT WE ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL.”
A guest spot on Fox News, 150,000 hits, and notes from Iraq, Germany and Japan, it seems she’s hit a nerve.
Good news is you can submit, too. You just need a sharpie and a post-it.

Wow, what an amazing video! A word of encouragement whether it is a note about how beautiful you are or something to cheer you up or make you smile, is all good.
Thanks for sharing!
Just got through going to the beach for a family reunion (swimsuit) – now getting ready for 30 yr HS Reunion. YES, we are beautiful – we ARE enough – just the way we are. Thanks so VERY VERY much for this timely video!!! I’ll be sharing and carrying a post-it pad in my purse as well!
