Mighty Summit Tote Giveaway

Uncategorized

When we were pulling together gifts for the Mighty Summit, we set a few aside to give away. Here’s what’s up for grabs today:

Large Natural Zip Top Canvas Tote Bag by Lands End

I had no idea how useful these were until I had one. Sturdy, preppy delicious, and just the right size for a weekend away. Yours will not say “Sarah” on the front, but it will have the same trim.

Tieks by Gavrieli

I bought a pair of these genius travel shoes a while back, and they’re one of my favorite things. Tieks fold in half so you can stuff them in your purse, and the quality is amazing. They come in all sorts of candy colors and metallics — plus they pack flat and slip off easily when you’re heading through airport security. The winner gets to choose any pair for $135 and under.

Bamboo Dahlia Necklace By Feisty Elle

You know that girl who always looks so cool, and you can never pinpoint what it is about her? Good jewelry. Dahlias are my favorite flower, and designer Leslie Yang made a silver version of this necklace for Summit attendees.

Neoprene Laptop Case from Mixed Bag

Now you can drop your laptop more stylishly than before.

Tattly Temporary Tattoos

Tattly makes temporary tattoos that don’t suck. We’ve talked about these before, and they’ve come out with a few new designs since. Instant toughness boost for the nerd corps.

Typekit Subscription

A one-year subscription to Typekit, the service that lets you use a variety of fonts on your site without having to serve them as images. Have you noticed the Web has been looking prettier lately? Thank these guys.

The Happiness Project

Gretchen Rubin was one of our Mighty Summit attendees this year, and she brought along her New York Times Bestselling book, which is about her year-long experiment in making her life happier. I love this idea, and this book.

The Quintet Necklace by Lemonade Handmade

I’ve mentioned this necklace before, we give one to each of the attendees to symbolize the five Life List goals they hope to accomplish in the coming year. I love the necklace for its simplicity, and I like the idea of five golden rings being little commitments to yourself. I wear mine most days until I’ve crossed everything off for the year.

And that’s it for today. Pretty good, huh? To enter please leave a comment about something on your Life List, contest closes next Thursday night at midnight PST. Helen Jane and Laura at The Queso are doing giveaways as well, so head over there for two more chances to win.

Now for the fine print: Please only leave one comment here, because it’s the nice thing to do, and also because multiple entries on Mighty Girl will be disqualified. I’ll use random.org to select the winner, and I’ll announce who won at the top of this post and in a separate post next Friday. Offer eligible only to U.S. and Canada.

  1. I recently got to place half a check mark next to something on my life list: Get my motorcycle license! Previously, I’d never even been on one! I ended up signing up for the weekend class, which culminated in the licensing ‘exam.’ Though I ended up being the ONLY person to fail the test, I didn’t end up crashing OR hurting anyone or myself and I was proud of myself for going so far out of my (safe!) comfort zone! I consider that a success! 🙂

  4. To do something with horses. Learn to ride, work in a barn and shovel poop, volunteer at some horse rescue facility. I think I would love every minute of any of these things.

  31. I wrote a life list a couple of years ago (at your suggestion). But never actually did anything with it. This year I decided to actually cross some things off. I ran my first half-marathon last month and I’m about to cross off two more. Thank you for always inspiring.

  36. On my list is to learn to dive in and look good while doing it. I can manage to not belly flop but I would like to learn how to do it gracefully.

  37. A few items:
    Learn to can salsa!
    Visit every playground in my city!
    Go on a hike at least once a month?
    Take the boys blueberry picking…

    This last one has morped into “take the boys to pick apples” which will be doing in 2 weeks. I love the life list idea, it’s a nice way to add cheer in my life when things are not otherwise cheerful (the economy, husband’s lack of employment, the weather). Also inspired me to explore all beautiful places right here in my backyard. As a list person, it’s also nice to continually make goals in life!

  46. I’m scared to write a life list. I’m a lawyer and a mom, struggling to balance, afraid to add any more to my plate. My life list: write a life list.
