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.

  4. I want to get up the gumption to believe that the things I make are pretty enough and useful enough that someone will want to buy them. I have a hard time believing that I am good enough, or whatever. SO perhaps these are really TWO things on my life list: to really believe in myself and to just do it!

  8. I realized how many of my life list items are travel related after thinking about my “must do’s”. I think my biggest item in that subcategory is living in another country for at least 6 months.

  41. I am still working on my life list, (can I have on my life list to write my life list, just wondering?) but I would love to learn how to make edible bread from scratch. Everytime I try it doesnt work out. I get a dense loaf or should I say lump of something resembling bread. I have a friend who can ‘whip up’ some bread like nobody’s business, she WILL teach me this winter 🙂

    Maggie, thank you for being you and bringing all of us crazy people together with your life list and for getting all of our sorry selves in gear to do our lists. *hugs from a stranger*

  46. i have a life list BECAUSE of you, maggie. so thank you for that.

    for every one thing i cross off, i managed to add two more to do, but by far the thing i am proudest of recently crossing off is reaching 60lbs lost and putting me halfway to goal! it also put me closer than i have ever been to crossing off the Number One- skydiving.
