Ellie Claire Journals Review #2 -the ideal gift for anyone that enjoys the beauty of words @EllieClaireGifts #EllieClaireGifts #sponsored



How did this year go by so fast? It seems like I say that every year but  I love this time of  so much with the beauty in the change of the season and all the festivities. Decorations galore with sparkles and glitter are my favorite thing. I love to bake and shop so what could be better than December?  I literally hoard vacation time from work so I can savor the season. I enjoy finding special gifts like these journals for all my friends and family to show them how much joy they bring to my life. Everyone needs time to themselves and whether it is journaling, meditation or some combination of them it is so calming and grounding. Journals and lettering books are a wonderful gift for anyone with a creative spark.  They let you wind down and really meditate on your special bible verses, inspirational quotes or plans for your upcoming days. I recently was introduced to Ellie Claire and all their beautiful journals and lettering books. You have never seen anything like these. The colors and designs are just gorgeous. The covers are bound with ultra thick and high quality paper. Each one has special embellishments like foil and nailhead designs. These journals and books are truly filled with inspirational quotes that inspire creativity for anyone and everyone.

The 365 Day Devotional Journals are crafted with the ultimate in quality paper. You can feel it as you turn the pages.  The style and the quotes in each books fit so nicely together. Each one has quotes for each day to give you something important to consider. There is plenty of blank space for your own art, quotes and thoughts too. I love that there are meaningful quotes throughout each of the books to bolster your mind and soul on a daily basis. What a wonderful way to create beauty and inspiration for your life. You can use these beautiful books to practice your Bible journaling or to note meaningful verses to look back on over time. You can decorate a page with your own plans and ideas for life or make notes about how the quote inspired you to act or think that day. If you are new to journaling or have been doing it for years, either way these books are perfect for you.

When you see the quality of the journals and the paper inside you will be grateful you were blessed to find them for yourself and for friends. I tested a variety of colored markers and pens and you can not see any bleed-through from page to page. You turn the page and each one has new inspiration of joy and thought.  What a rewarding way to grow your mind and heart in a beautiful way. There are so many inspirational passages in the journals that really were so meaningful to me. In the Peace begins with Me Devotional Journal, I loved the Romans 12:16 "Get along with each other; don't be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don't be the great somebody." Wow, that is so beautiful and perfect for the world today.  In The Earth is the Lord's and Everything in It Devotional Journal, the passage from Hebrews 11:8 captured my attention, "By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going." So simple but so meaningful and true that sometimes you have to just follow the path that is given you in faith..

These journals are a wonderful way to give time to yourself on a daily basis. Everyone needs that. Keep going to the gym, knitting or reading a great book but take time to choose another meaningful thing for yourself with one of these journals for 2019. You can work on them for fifteen minutes or an hour as you have time. Each devotional journal even has a placekeeping band so you can open to the very next day each time.



You can find each of the journals on online at B+N or Amazon so shopping cannot be easier for all the creative people in your life. Christmas is almost here and I can't think of a more beautiful gift to share. This is such a joyful gift to give to a friend from church or anyone that loves to create.
