sunday shelf- mini diary give-away

mini diary from marta writes
For today's Sunday shelf entry, I posted this sweet little diary from "marta writes" - These little books are equipped with little prompters to jot down what you love! Sunday is a day to open your eyes, to see, to smell, to listen, to taste, and to touch. Take a few minutes out of your Sunday and "jot your life in." Marta is all about celebrating the details.

So jot down a comment here and you will be included in a sweet Sunday give-away, for one of these little books to bring you to your senses! I will post the winner Monday - "Columbus Day"- here in the States.

    Now these are the best. At the end of the day the little prompters will allow us to stop, reflect and remember some of the finer points that we would otherwise take for granted~ taste, scent-etc. What a special Sunday give-away.

    This little book is a perfect way to stop and reflect on what is good in life. Thoughts written down can also be a springboard for a poem or story. Believe in being happy!

    I am a writer as well as artist, and jotting down my thoughts at the end of the day makes me feel the day is completed.

    I love this idea. Sometimes when I stare at a blank page its hard to just start writing. These little gems are perfect to reflect on our "gift of life" each and every day.
    Great idea pve. Thanks for posting the link too.

    What neat little journals!
    I used to keep a gratitude journal and write 3 things I was grateful for each day, unfortunately that journal time has fallen by the wayside! :(

    I feel like I need one of these books today; focus on the things I love! A very trying, tired, yet sweet 3 year old child is wearing me down!!! Here's one for Sunday: I love the sound of sleeping children!

    Journals are my daily getaway journey....in fact, when my crumb was born, I started a daily journal of her life and have been keeping it going ever since. One day, I will bundle them all up and hand them to her as a gift.

    These diaries are so pretty, I love the idea of writing a journal,
    handwriting and pausing and thinking the day over!
    It's like meditating, great inspiration.
    Thanks ~ always ~ Victoria

    What a lovely idea! Particularly for those of us who don't have time to write a "real" journal. This keeps it short and sweet, but still marks the memories.
