Giveaway: Tom Bihn Field Journal Notebook

I had the good fortune of receiving the Tom Bihn Field Journal Notebook for review compliments of the great people at Tom Bihn, and I want to pass on that good fortune by giving away that journal to one lucky reader.  I absolutely love it, but I haven't made good use of it since reviewing it, so I am hoping to give it a good home.  Included in this giveaway is one Tom Bihn Field Journal Notebook in Cocoa Brown, plus the three sets of paper samples that I received (each have apprximately 95 of the 100 pages left).

If you have any questions about it, check out the full review right here, and the full specs are on the Tom Bihn website.  Here is how to enter:

Giveaway: STMT X Colombia Kit by Rad and Hungry

Don't understand what the title above is all about?  Well good - read along then.  Rad and Hungry contacted me last week about their new Something Mighty Collection, which is an effort to put together a monthly office supply kit of goods gathered from Rad and Hungry founders Sam Alston and Hen Chung's world travels.  I'll let Hen explain further:

“Every time we traveled together, we synched up in a path of mad consumption that would gather momentum during the trip,” says Hen Chung. “One of each postcard at the museum. One of each patterned scarf, and one for my mom. And one for your mom. Two of each beer. Order everything on the menu, we’ll split it. Good thing these pencils come in packs of twelve…

“The common thread was design, but unrefined design – ‘local’ in the sense that it’s so basic and part of the everyday landscape that people in that country find it unremarkable. The kitschy outdated postcard, the shoes people wear when cleaning house, the cheapest brew, the #2 pencil. We’re taken by the concept that simple, daily items are given new meaning through travel. It transforms the mundane into something inspired.

“We wanted to transfer that experience through design without altering the fundamentals inside. Each kit is focused on office supplies—the everyday basics. Everyone can take ‘em and use ‘em, make something, get down!”

Hen has graciously offered to give away one of the STMT X Colombia Kits to a lucky Pen Addict reader, which features two pencils, one paper pad, and one box of twelve jumbo paper clips, all from the Columbian region.  Here is how to enter:
