When was the last time you held a real letter in your hands?
Not a bill. Not a package slip. A letter — from someone who sat down, picked up a pen, and wrote to you.
I've been thinking about this a lot lately. We text, we email, we scroll. And somewhere in all that noise, we lost something that used to be ordinary: the feeling of being thought of, slowly and on purpose.
That's why I created Letters From Marcy.
What It Is (And What It Isn't)
Letters From Marcy is not another subscription box full of samples you didn't ask for. It's a monthly ritual delivered to your door — something intentional, something personal, something you can actually use.
Every month, you'll receive a handwritten letter from me. Not a printed card with my name stamped on it. A real letter, written by hand, with a reflection on whatever I've been sitting with that month — a season shift, a lesson I'm learning, a moment that stopped me in my tracks.
Along with the letter, you'll get a full-size Pure Placid product chosen to support that month's theme, and a simple ritual you can try. Nothing complicated. Nothing that requires 45 minutes you don't have. Just a small, grounding practice you can weave into your day.
Why a Letter?
A letter slows you down. You hold it. You read it once, maybe twice. You set it on the counter and come back to it later. It's the opposite of a notification — it asks nothing from you except to receive it.
That's what I want this to be. Your permission slip to pause for five minutes. To light a candle, read something written just for you, and breathe.
What to Expect
Your first box ships April 15. After that, a new one arrives each month. Every box is different because every month is different — the scents shift with the seasons, and the rituals follow what I think we all need most in that moment.
And here's the part I love most: you can write back. This isn't a one-way broadcast. If something in my letter hits home, or you want to share what your ritual looked like that week, I want to hear it.
It's $25 a month. Cancel anytime. No commitments except the one you're making to yourself.
This Is What Pure Placid Was Always About
I didn't start this company to sell candles. I started it because I believe scent can change how you feel in under 60 seconds — and that matters on the hard days. Letters From Marcy is just the next step: a way to make that practice personal, seasonal, and shared.
