Beach Love by @chucktownart


Sometimes “I love you” just falls short. We’ve made it easier to say what you *really* mean this year: how about “Our love is stronger than The Ravenel?”

We’ll have the love notes posted on our Instagram stories today for you to share with someone special. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Go to our Instagram + click our logo to see the story (there will also be a how-to there)

  2. Click-through until you find an e-card you like, then screenshot

  3. Go to your own stories (swipe right from home), + swipe up to select

  4. Type @ and your friend’s username to tag them, then post

Tag us @chstoday so we can see the love, and we’ll repost some of our favorites. There’s plenty of Valentine’s Day mushiness to go around. 💘
