STORYTELLING WITH WEEK IN THE LIFE™: This year Ali is putting together a brand-new workshop which walks you through the basics + heart of this project. Fashioned after the popular Storytelling With December Daily® and Storytelling With Project Life® workshops, Ali will take you on a journey back through her past projects and share ideas, tips, and inspiration for approaching this project (mindset, prep, etc), what to do during the documenting week, and tips on putting it together after the week is over.
Registration for this workshop will start during our Week In The Life™ Prep Day on Saturday, April 15th.
We will be offering most of these products digitally on Friday, April 7th. New layered templates will be released before the documenting week (date to come).

Here's a few images of the kit + journal so you can see the scale:
Last year we introduced a new journal option for Week In The Life™. Some people used it for note-taking/story collection during the documenting week and others used it for their entire project. We love that it brings additional options for people to tell their stories.
This is the same size as the One Little Word® Journal (6.25 x 8.5 approx).
There are also two blank spreads in between each day.
Our friend Yin used the notebook for her project last year. She put together a whole blog post sharing what she did - totally worth checking it out if you are considering going in this direction this year. Here are a few images from her project:

This year we are trying something new which is a limited number of "Buy All" button packages. We've seen requests for this in the past when we release collections like this so we wanted to test it out with Week In The Life™. As this is the first time doing this we anticipate we'll learn some things as we go through the process of offering it.
People who choose the "Buy All" option will also receive this exclusive mug that has the sun + moon designs on it from the Week In The Life™ Mini Kit.
In addition to the products featured above we'll have a variety of basics available under the Week In The Life™ category, including page protectors, inks, and this organizational box (not included with the "Buy All" option).
