Everyone at Habit has some sort of unofficial role. For example, some people make sure there’s a fresh pot of coffee every morning, others go hard with Christmas decorating, and one welcomes new people by wearing a top hat (we won’t name names, but you can probably guess who if you keep reading).For Valentine’s Day, like we do every year, we wanted to recognize the things that people do and the unique things we appreciate about them. This year we decided to go with business cards. Each of us drew a Habiteer's name from a hat and designed a business card for that person, but we did it with an unofficial job title.And like always, we loved the results so much that we wanted to share them with you. Enjoy!Disclaimer: These business cards and the descriptions that go with them are 100% fictional. Any references to people, places, and businesses (apart from ourselves and Habit) are just for our own entertainment.

During the day, Mickie is a dairy farmer who treats her cows with compassion and dignity. During the evening, however (and also during the day, we guess), she is a mother like no udder.

Inspiring. Intentional. Pinterest-y. These are just some of the words that have been used to describe Meg’s approach to interior design, which has been profiled in major publications to international acclaim.
