Would you be interested?

Do you love to:
  • journal
  • paint
  • sketch
  • draw
Recently I was inspired to start an art journal. I don't have one just yet but plan to get one next week, just need to find the right one. But I just don't want to keep it to myself! I want to share it with YOU! Here's the idea:

I want to purchase a nice sturdy canvas journal {or maybe just a cheap spiral journal} and journal 2 pages in it.

Then pack it up and ship it to one of you to do the same. Then when your 2 pages are done, you ship it to the next person and so on. If I can get 10 people to sign up, the journal could go full circle two times, so each of us would journal 2 pages, 2 times, totally 4 pages. If we each keep the journal for up to 1 week, we should receive it about every 3 months!

Each time we journal, we could maybe take some photos of our pages and blog about it! Imagine all the cool stuff that would be in it by the 2nd time we each got it! I bet it would have a ton of cool stuff in it! I'm not just talking about writing, but painting and sketching and all kinds of fun stuff!

After the initial 10 {including myself} have had it twice, we'll add on to the list! We could all really get to know each other pretty well by participating!

So for now, this is just an idea. If this sounds like something you might be interested in, comment and let me know, or email me! And if I get enough positive feedback, I'll start signups ASAP and go get my hands on a nice journal for us!

  4. Sounds like a neat idea, count me in! Just don't count on me to doodle in it, unless you're talking about stick figures! But maybe some copies of inspirational quotes or something. I'd love to see what other people put it in as well

  10. Great idea, and I would soooo love to participate except...you would NOT want me participating in this. I am good at a lot of things like cooking, cleaning, and parenting my wild kids, but I stink at being timely. I am ALWAYS late and I ALWAYS forget. It would all be good until the day I either forget to do it or send it off 2 weeks late. I know, I'm terrible. I can't wait to see how it goes though!
