GIVEAWAY | Two people will receive a spot in May Flaum's upcoming Big Picture Classes workshop "May With May."
Sharing your name with a month isn’t always easy, but long time Big Picture instructor May Flaum has turned this month of May into a big scrapbooking party! In this 31 day class students will find daily inspiration delivered to them via email, as well as a classroom where videos, handouts, an active message board, and so much more awaits. Filled with both new layouts and all time scrapbooking favorites, May with May is going to be a crafty good time.
To make this class even better – it’s priced at just $19 so it’s budget friendly too.
The fun starts May 1.
GIVEAWAY | One person will receive a signed copy of Momma Zen and one person will receive a signed copy of Hand Wash Cold from Karen Maezen Miller.
About Hand Wash Cold | It’s easy to think that meaning, fulfillment, and bliss are “out there,” somewhere outside of our daily routine. But in this playful yet profound reflection on awareness, the compelling voice of a self-described errant wife and delinquent mother reveals the happiness at the bottom of the laundry basket, the love in the kitchen sink, and the peace possible in one’s own backyard. Readers follow the author through youthful ambition and self-absorption, beyond a broken marriage, and into the steady calm of a so-called ordinary life. Household chores and caregiving tasks become opportunities for self-examination, lessons in relationship, and liberating moments of selflessness. Miller shows that with attention, it’s the little things — even the unexpected, unpleasant, and unwanted things — that count.
About Momma Zen | The daily challenges of parenthood can become the most profound spiritual journey of our lives. Combining humor, honesty and plainspoken advice, Momma Zen distills the doubts and frustrations of early motherhood into vignettes of Zen wisdom. This compelling and wise memoir follows the timeline of early motherhood from pregnancy through toddlerhood. Miller takes readers on a transformative journey, charting a mother’s growth beyond naive expectations and disorientation to finding fulfillment in ordinary tasks, developing greater self-awareness and self-acceptance – to the gradual discovery of “maternal bliss,” a state of abiding happiness and ease available to us all.

I just discovered Karen Maezen Millar through a friend and really enjoyed her post about parenting... Although I'm not yet a parent myself, I'm trying hard to practice by re-parenting myself in the way I'd hope to one do for some other precious being one day (and incidentally in a very different way to that I was raised!) The Everyday Keepsakes are so beautiful too! Wow - I absolutely LOVE the camera with the heart...and the tree... Glad to have discovered this site. Lots of love, toodlepip, Rosie x
