Really Great Giveaway!

Updated: Kathemc was the winner of the fabulous damask journal! Congrats!

We are the gals of 1000 lists. We list "what to do", "what we wish we would do" and "what to absolutely never do again"! We know there are more of you out there - so we are offering a list-making space of your very own for this week's Really Great Giveaway. Win your very own black and white damask graphic journal by Peter Pauper Press.

With cover art inspired by patterns from tapestries, this journal invites you to weave the threads of your life into the design of memory. Embossed with gloss highlights, 160 lined pages, and bookbound with elastic band place holder, you'll be all set to tackle those New Year's Resolutions in Zazu-style.

So, what would you list on the very first page of this journal?

Let us know in the comment section of this post. We will choose a winner next Monday, December 15th.

Last week's winner was 3squares - congrats!!

  1. I would use this journal for all kinds of things! The first page may start with a list of books to look into for my husband, or perhaps a few songs I'd like to download, or a few blogs I'd like to subscribe to for inspiration. I love the cover pattern of this journal!

  8. What a pretty journal! Actually I would love to give it to my daughter. She is wanting to start working on writing a book and I think this would help her write down all her rough drafts.

  12. I'm taking a road trip with my friends this summer, and this looks like the perfect road journal. The first page would contain a list of all the kitschy roadside attractions we have to visit and the silly things we must do before our journey ends. Thanks!

  45. So, what would you list on the very first page of this journal? I would list my life and family goals. How I want to better myself as a wife, a mom and a person as a whole. My life is my family. My three sons and my husband are everything to me and this journal would depict that. I have never kept a journal, but I have always wanted to. This would be a great starting place. I would keep it safe so one day my children could look back and read it and realize how much they were truly loved. I would want this to bring a smile to their face on a dreary day, and a breath of wind in their face would tell them I am never more than a breath and a prayer away. This journal would let my family know they are my everything and even after my last breath is gone, they will be in my heart until one day we meet again.
