I'm going to try to do a weekly journal post to list creative things done each day of the previous week. The plan is to keep this going for the whole year.
Creative activities will include arty stuff, all kinds of sewing, designing, notable blogging, crochet, and all other types of crafts, and also things like cooking, gardening, tidying and sorting, taking photographs, walking, caravanning, exploring, enjoying the sights, quality family time, or even just sitting and thinking about things.
So here is the beginning....starting on Tuesday 1st January 2013.

My sewing machine hasn't seen "the light of day" very much over the last year or two. So I'm very pleased to have created the 'new' space for it in the lounge so that it is set up and ready to use when The Moment strikes me, lol.
DeleteA darned good idea. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOne way of answering. "What did I do this week?? " lol.
May I use your idea at some point?
Regards Phillipa
Glad you like the idea Phillipa, but it's not my idea though. It's from http://creativeeveryday.com/creative-every-day-challenge
DeleteI just haven't got around to putting the link to the 'Creative Every Day Challenge' on my side panel yet.
Yes, I needed to answer that exact question about "What did I do this week??", so this challenge is perfect for me too.
By The way. Love love love the background for your blog :)
ReplyDeleteThank you. If you would like to see more pics of the background on this blog, it is my *Rock Pool in a Fish Bowl* project.

I like this idea - more or less a diary of what you've done each week. I keep a written diary on a daily basis, but this would be fun too.
