50 Days of the Little Things: Week 1 {Giveaway}

*This giveaway is now closed. The winner is Rachel. Congratulations! Please email your mailing address to savvyjulie @ gmail . com *

Time for a 50 Days of the Little Things update {and a giveaway!}

Some of my little things from this week include…

  • Finding a new General Practitioner who listens and is working with me to figure out what’s going on.
  • Cincinnati chili and pear crumble while watching the Brewer’s win their game last night.
  • The days when I wake up and find that Dan has emptied the dishwasher and done the dishes that need to be hand-washed before he left for work.

Have you had a good week? Have you found lots of little things to be happy about? I hope so, because I have a giveaway for all the 50 Days of the Little Things participants!

A few months ago, I stumbled upon Katie’s shop, Gadanke, and was immediately smitten with her journals. I loved the little envelope pockets and library cards. The paper was beautiful and the pages were filled with writing prompts and little thoughts to inspire your journaling.

Last week, as I was preparing for the start of 50 Days of the Little Things, I noticed that she had the perfect journal for this project… {The Little Things} Journal! It was meant to be. And look at how cute it is:

Katie loved the sound of 50 Days of the Little Things so much that she graciously agreed to give one of YOU your own {The Little Things} journal.

A Little Bit About Gadanke:

Document who you are and what you crave and believe. Handmade journaling products at the award winning shop, Gadanke, are filled with creative writing prompts and tidbits to make you think (and laugh!). These baby books, prayer journals, travel books, and diaries make your writing process more meaningful and fun! Plus they’re totally eco-savvy with 100% recycled papers.201110141336.jpg
Entry: You need to do two things to enter:
1. Visit Gadanke’s shop and leave a comment below telling me which journal is your favorite AND
2. Leave a link to your post about a little thing that made you happy this week in the link-up below. Please include a link to http://www.savvyeat.com/tag/50-days-of-the-little-things/ somewhere in your post!  {PS: If you’ve already submitted a link, I will count it!}
Note: If you don’t have a blog, send me an email with your thoughts on the 50 Days project, and I’ll post it for you!
Closes: Noon EST on Wednesday, October 19.

Good luck! And as the Gadanke motto says… “celebrate your story.”

    I really really can’t express how much I love this, I’ve always loved your little things concept and I love that you’ve found a journal that fits in with it so well!
    I love the Minibook for Someone You Love, it’s just the sort of thing I like to do for my boyfriend :-)
    But then I love all of those journals, they’re so cute and I would love to have the set! :-P

    Thank you :-)
