April showers have arrived and now we hope for gorgeous May flowers! Spring to me is about getting organized, getting rid of all of winter's dust, and making plans for the summer months. This month's giveaway is a medium sized journal by Oh, Joy! and a small notepad to slip into your purse-you never know when you need to make a list or jot some notes down. For those who know me, I am the queen of Lists! To-do lists, daily lists, monthly lists, grocery lists, shopping lists, vacation lists. basically anything that crosses my mind I jot it down and eventually create a list!
So I would like to share my crazy need to make lists with you this spring! To have these two little journals on your desk with a pen in hand, share with us your top five favorite things to do once Spring arrives. To me, the season of spring tends to overwhelm me because there are too many things to do at once with the warm weather arriving. I would love to hear what your special projects are, hobbies, or anything you crave this month! April 11th at midnight is the deadline. The winner will be announced Monday morning and the giveaway will be shipped out as soon as possible to our lucky winner. (Note: We only ship within the US for our giveaways.)
Start jotting your notes down!

Top 5 Favorite Things to Do When Spring Arrives:
ReplyDelete1. Walk in the woods and admire the wild flowers.
2. Spring Clean
3. Put away the heavy winter clothes and re-familiarize myself with my spring and summer clothes.
4. Open the window and let the fresh breeze in.
5. Remember to breathe.....it is the craziest time of the year (for some of us) and it is easy to forget to appreciate all of the beauty and good things and people that surround us.
