the mini mart {mini giveaway!}
I've spent my entire life wishing I kept a journal. I've had countless failed attempts, I always start with the best of intentions and fizzle out within the first week or so. There are so many wonderful benefits from keeping a journal, I try to tell myself that our family blog is at least some documentation of our lives, but it definitely lacks in some areas.
When I came across the blog marta writes, I fell instantly in love. Her writing style, her simplistic views and documentations. Come to find out she has an amazing little shop. Selling these mini diaries that even I can keep up with on a daily basis. I have to say I honestly love them. I think they are perfect for me. On days that I have more time, I can jot down a few extra things and feel good about my efforts. Not to mention the fact that they are fun to go back and read with the girls.
To make it even more appealing, the covers are just my style. Some print, some color and a small enough size to fit in my purse, glove box, really anywhere I'll be. They'll make the perfect stocking stuffers, but be sure to keep one for yourself.
Extra Goodness: WIN ONE! Leave a comment on this post (any comment) and you'll be entered to win. Monday morning I'll pick and post a random winner, Good Luck!!

Love.
Great.

oh, i love these. so perfect for documenting the early days of my baby's life...the small details. and then to save them for her later...they're beautiful.
Love it! Please pick me! :)
Ive kept a journal since middle school and the entries are priceless - a little embarrassing, but so relevant to my age and the experiences are timeless....I hope I'll be able to look back and remember what I was thinking and feeling so that I can relate better to my daughter as she grows and learns and hurts and achieves!
it is a commitment, so pretty little journals may be the perfect motivation to jot down a thought or two. But, I think BLOGS are virtual journals, too! Ands yours is such a nice chronicle of your journey and what you love:)
These are so cute! Pick me!
this is a journal that wouldn't bore/embarrass me years from now!
i love my daily dose of marta's blog. thank you for this giveaway! these mini diaries are the sweetest! love, lindsay
Tiny and non-overwhelming. I think I could actually journal in those. Thanks!
My sister just bought a couple of these and they look wonderful...I would love to win one!
I Love marta's blog and these journals are perfect in every way--hope I win!

i'd love the motivation. pick me!
I really, really, really need a mini diary!
Oh, cute journals! I too start and never keep up with journaling. Maybe a pretty one would be inspiring enough to keep me going. :)
I suck at keeping a journal too... these may be the prefect answer for me!

love journals and diaries!
loving that marta!
These look very cute! I'd love one to write in!
What beautiful journals! It'd be such a delight to write in something so chic! :)
Maybe this would get me to write! All that empty space in traditional journals intimidates me!
Memories! PLEASE!
Lauren
this is a great way to still leave some personal history behind during this hectic season, well who am i kidding, this lifetime.
me please! atpeschultz@hotmail.com
i adore these. not as much as i adore the beautiful marta's blog though.
my attempts at journalling are wordy and over-analytical and not a good record of memories or a creative release.
Fantastic idea! I love the size.
I love it! It's perfect!

I started keeping a journal for and about my daughter several months ago, but I haven't been very consistent in writing in it. I'd love to check these out!
oh PLEASE! i really need something like this!
Would love this!
I LOVE these mini journals. Makes it easy.
Very cute and stylish! Would love to tote one of these around -- so much more fun that posting an updated status to my Facebook page.

I love journal writing! Enter me please
Brilliant and cute too!

These diaries are so cute! I love that they are portable so you can take advantage of "stolen" minutes here and there to capture some of life's moments.
