It’s my first giveaway! And what a giveaway it is! One lucky reader will receive these three gorgeous blank journals. Designed by Brigid Ashwood, each journal is a 6X9 paperback with 200 pages. Pages are lined on one side, blank on the other. Journals are available for purchase here.
To enter, simply post a comment below. It doesn’t have to be elaborate, a nice “I want these journals!” or “I like your blog” will do. The winner will be chosen at random on Friday. Good luck, I know you are going to love these!
I love these journals!
Dear Stephanie
Please enter me for your lovely giveaway – Burne-Jones and Waterhouse images, yes please! I have been immersing myself in the Pre-Raphaelites recently – buying various books and a wombat, so that I can occasionally join in with Wombat Friday. I have just finished the book ‘A Profound Secret’ by Josceline Dimbleby about her family, the Gaskells, and the relationship between May Gaskell and Edward Burne-Jones. The book then follows May’s daughters, Amy and Daphne, concentrating on Amy who had her portrait painted by Burne-Jones when she was 19 and it is a haunting image. The whole of her story was fascinating and this book kept me gripped. Amy still remains enigmatic to the end. Sorry, this wasn’t supposed to be such an essay – I think the Pre-Raphaelites have become a bit of an obsession…
Best wishes
Ellie

As a fan of the Pre-Raphaelites – and therefore this blog – how could I not be attracted to these Brigid Ashwood journals? It also helps that I love attractive notebooks, journals and writing pads which I fill with my ramblings and witterings! 😉
I’d love these journals – beautiful!
Hi I’m an italian fan, I love your blog and the blank journals..
Willows whiten, aspens quiver,
Little breezes dusk and shiver
Thro’ the wave that runs forever
By the island in the river
Flowing down to Camelot.
Four grey walls, and for grey towers,
Overlook a space of flowers,
And the silent isle imbowers
The Lady of Shallot.
these journals would be perfect to collect my photography ideas 🙂
These books look worthy of capturing delightful dreams!
LOVE this blog,always look forward to reading…….also LOVE to win a lovely journal!
The Waterhouse mermaid painting is one of my ultimate favourites! I’d love these journals!!!
This journals are definitely worth learning to write calligraphycally… Or at trying to stop scribbling.
Yes Please enter me into comp, my current Diary is just running out! Lovely books…
These are very bonny indeed. Maybe if I owned notebooks this lovely, I would be more inclined to get my finger out and write down my creative inspirations instead of trying to store them all in my head! (hint, hint, hint…) ;p
These exquisite notebooks would insipire all sorts of lovely writings inside – would just love them.
Yay! What a great giveaway!
I would like to win these as a gift for my daughter who has a passion for all things Pre-Raphaelite, especially Burne-Jones, Millais & Waterhouse. The Lady of Shalott is one of her favourite paintings. We went to see the Pre-Raphaelite exhibition at Birmingham Museum last year, it was just amazing.
I love reading your blog AND I’d love to win the journals.
